To let these ghosts out of my skull
They tell me my ears are so young (home)
Take me to another land
Let me understand your plan
Not just my spare tire (home)
He said what I am searchin for are
My grandmas past, my brothers gone
Outta the country and into more country
Let me understand your plan
I never at once felt so alone
Take me to another place
The lord allowed me to drink some more
Then outta nowhere you tell me to break
Take me to another place
For some strange reason it had to be (home)
Brothers and sisters keep messin up
Why does it have to be so dman tuff?
Take me to another land
My family tree my family name (home)
Go back to from whence you came (home)
It was all a dream about Tennessee
But lord I ask you (home)
Take me to another land
Talkin to each other every night and day
Take me to another place
We talk to each other in a friendship way
He said cuz I set myself on a quest for truth
For some strange reason it had to be
The answers to all which are in front of me
Although you're superior over me
Many journeys to freedom made in vain
Why people be in the mess that they be
Problems got me pessimistic
And he was there to quench my thirst
Past Dyesburg into Ripley
Lord it's obvious we got a relationship
Make me forget all that hurts me
Ask those trees for all their wisdom
Make me forget all that hurts me
Make me forget all that hurts me
Now I see the importance of history
The ultimate truth started to get blurry
I know you're supposed to be my steering wheel
He guided me to Tennessee (home)
I ask you lord why you enlightened me
But I am still thirsty
Climbed the trees my forefathers hung from
By brothers on the corner playin ghetto games
For some strange reason it ahd to be (home)
To be my guiding force and truth (home)
Where the ghost of childhood haunts me
I don't know where I can go
Without the enlightment of all my folks
He guided me to Tennessee (home)
Although I am black and proud
Wlak the roads my forefathers walked
