[00:01.86] Tobacco Road - Common Market
[00:36.20] I guess it has been a minute
[00:37.64] And the south paw aint felt right without the pen in it
[00:40.70] Sent for incentive and sittin' submissive
[00:42.38] But nothin' bringin' Jimmy back, you know that prayin' a waste of wishes
[00:46.18] I made a decision carry on, honor lives in the deed
[00:49.56] Though the muse moves in decreased speed
[00:51.80] Due to the wait, my dude lose patience with me.
[00:54.61] Favor the Blue, you knew what I was trainin' to be
[00:57.60] I came for the takin' of something they aint seen back in Henry
[01:00.72] The proximity to Knox's Fort's not given any but
[01:03.66] Cause to envy. Lord when have we fought the enemy
[01:06.65] With more that afforded, we're stormin' the port of entry
[01:09.34] In memory of the James Clan, my symphony of the
[01:12.77] Flames fan to conquer, when the song come on/ pay the band
[01:15.95] Send a percentage back, Oldham owed, factor in estate tax
[01:18.76] So wave it if it goes to pave Tobacco Road
[01:21.44] Some memories I kept
[01:23.69] Others left, others I must have let go to protect
[01:26.44] Hold a check for the row I set. ready No, not yet
[01:29.87] Well lemme know and I'll return to collect
[01:31.86] They never found me 'cause Valerie's boy had a different rhythm to play to
[01:36.23] And he gon' use his tools to break through
[01:38.41] Mindful of the nights in that state, who they say life is what you make it
[01:42.41] When really life is what makes you
[01:44.40] Payin' homage, with a big nod to Aubrey
[01:47.03] The schools failed me, thank God the farm taught me
[01:50.08] The value of a calloused hand, how to work and plow this land
[01:53.14] How even a modest crop will make your pop the proudest man
[01:56.01] Harvest of a thousand fans, sans a gram of seeds broadcast
[01:58.70] Through loud speakers, in the weeds I was born last
[02:01.69] Profound effect on my volume, plus the readiness to fill it
[02:05.13] In the field you should hear what they call 'em
[02:07.62] Regardless I should have spent another year on the bottom tier
[02:10.12] Instead of trynna dodge what it was I thought got 'em here
[02:13.20] 89 the number, 84 lumber another summer
[02:16.57] Fightin' for cash to mash on the likening
[02:18.57] Of cycles I've seen those not keen on college
[02:21.63] Lost direction or went to be correctional officers
[02:23.44] No opportunity was offered us, I had my sights on
[02:27.50] Being gone 'fore they cut the lights on, Ryan's song
[02:30.43] Right or wrong, tie it tighter, I'm tired of buying into
[02:33.13] Guidance gone awry, my father fought it with firearms and
[02:36.44] Died in the trauma the violence spawned a child of drama
[02:39.44] No wonder he's prone to wander, knowin' his home is haunted
[02:42.18] Prayin' that over yonder they still know
[02:44.36] How much I love 'em I just had to go, had it with the status quo
[02:48.11] They're askin' me if I'll be back when I'm old
[02:50.67] In fact, no these are my last tracks along Tobacco Road
[02:53.73]
[02:55.11] But I'll forever call it home
[02:56.42] And I feel it whenever I call home
[02:58.18]
[02:58.74] But I'll forever call it home
[03:01.18] And I feel it whenever I call home
[03:02.74] But I'll forever call it home
[03:05.52] And I feel it whenever I call home
[03:08.33] But I'll forever call it home
[03:10.14]
[03:12.55] And I feel it whenever I call home
[03:14.42] whenever I call home
