Eyes On the Road

Keeping my eyes on the road
I see you
Keeping my hands on the wheel
I hold you
99 Miles from LA
I kiss you
I miss you
Please be there

Stay focused, keep your eyes on the road kid
Keep your grip on the wheel don't slip, keep it real now

And the kid made his choice
Work a 9-5 or try to find my voice
Money on the side
Passion on the porch
The driveway paved with the riches of the sport
Watch a montage of the mission in my mind
Massaged by time
Kind of like a fine wine ripened on the vine
All these thoughts as I glide on the 5
99 Miles from the city where I thrive
LA is the place that brings the beauty to my shrine
Amazon Prime can't deliver these lines
Outlined in chalk are the days I recall
With the sharpness of yesterday
Young with resolve
Creation was my station, it was my calling
Math or English could not extinguish the yearning
Once I had the taste of writing making beats
Nothing pulled me back in further from the street
Smoking weed and drinking, contemplating speech
Made it for my friends, and made it just for me
No one had to push me, it is all I need
Even when I stripped away the drugs and grief
Thought I wouldn't feel it without smoking weed
Boy was I mistaken, music is my creed
Riding on the 5 and checking out my beats
Thinking bout my god and wrapped in this mystique

Keeping my eyes on the road
I see you
Stay focused, keep your eyes on the road kid
Keeping my hands on the wheel
I hold you
Keep your grip on the wheel don't slip, keep it real now
99 Miles from LA
I kiss you, I miss you
Please be there

Paying the prices
Letting the dices fall where they may
It's not my controlling, not my conciseness
Not my taxes
Not my vices
Not my vibration
Not my libation
Not my citation
I'm just an earthling finding my rhythm
Can you feel it

You may not know me, but this beats calling
Eligh and Marques
Bass and the treble
Masons with levels
Felines attracted
Practice makes perfect
That's alright, that's okay
We came to feast on this buffet
This life is all that's worth shit
Life is a highway
Find what you love
Don't let it go
Get on the road
Get off your phone
Check out the sun
Check out the clouds
Look out the window
Do it loud, and do it now

No time to waste
Get on the case
Stop chasing
Sop wasting time hating
Education
Love is laced with ecstasy and pain
It's all free to gain and lose
I chose the station, dial tone grazing
Time is a battlefield
Music nation is the flag I'm raising
Not Cain, not brain, all heart
All 99 miles of passion to start

Paying the prices
Letting the dices fall where they may
It's not my controlling, not my conciseness
Not my taxes
Not my vices
Not my vibration
Not my libation
Not my citation
I'm just an earthling finding my rhythm here

Keeping my eyes on the road
I see you
Keeping my hands on the wheel
I hold you
99 Miles from LA
I kiss you
I miss you
Please be there
