Life is like a highway/ the brakes, the gas/
the memories, the years/ as the time flies past/
down the open road/ with an open soul/
the wind, the sky, sometimes I’m lost just feelin’ like/
a white shadow/ but remember, no matter how alone you feel though/
I gotta name you can call yo/
for when you’re on the ropes, and you feel like hope just jumped out the window/
Into the night/ this rhyme gonna shine on/
I bring the Word spoken/ and I believe that!/
I see the Invisible’s autograph all around/ He got it signed on….so do you see that?/
take a look, life is short/ the sands of time remind me to run/ so we like full-court/
pressed to the test, I hope to come through/
You feelin’ me? And if I do/ you know it’s all because I’m feelin’ you//
Chorus
My life is passin’ me by/
And my eyes they have no tears/
And my heart is bleedin’ dry/
But my soul it has no fears…/ because of You//
Verse 2
You know you got me/ tossin’ and turnin’ and I can’t stop/
thoughts about you keep me up past 2 o’clock/ it’s non-stop/
when I wake up/ you’re there/ I take up/
to read your love letters/ to let me know how much you care/
and they keep comin’/ sweet like perfume/
next time we meet/ you know it’s not too soon/
so let the world know, we’re close/ you’re my heart’s massage/
that’s you’re promise/ I know you ain’t goin’ anywhere/
take hold of my hand/ cuz I need yours/
touch my face/ so I can feel yours/
you make the work light/ and all the wrongs right/
you are my sunrise comin’ at the end of a long night/
trust this, your love’s good like justice, I see only me getting’ in between us, thus/
I hope every lie I ever told you comes true for you, before I die/ forgive me//
Verse 3
Soundman let it play/
so many times I played you, but not today/
see I used to love to live, now I live to love/
I wait for you, don’t want to pass you in the fast lane/
with you around, I never solo it/
the punches come you gotta roll, gotta roll with it/
I write with my life just for you/
so I could tell plain what no song could ever contain// amen
