Verse One: Speech 

Lord I've really been real stressed 
Down and out, losin ground 
Although I am black and proud 
Problems got me pessimistic 
Brothers and sisters keep messin up 
Why does it have to be so dman tuff? 
I don't know where I can go 
To let these ghosts out of my skull 
My grandmas past, my brothers gone 
I never at once felt so alone 
I know you're supposed to be my steering wheel 
Not just my spare tire (home) 
But lord I ask you (home) 
To be my guiding force and truth (home) 
For some strange reason it had to be (home) 
He guided me to Tennessee (home) 

Chorus 

Take me to another place 
Take me to another land 
Make me forget all that hurts me 
Let me understand your plan 

Verse Two 

Lord it's obvious we got a relationship 
Talkin to each other every night and day 
Although you're superior over me 
We talk to each other in a friendship way 

Then outta nowhere you tell me to break 
Outta the country and into more country 
Past Dyesburg into Ripley 
Where the ghost of childhood haunts me 
Wlak the roads my forefathers walked 
Climbed the trees my forefathers hung from 
Ask those trees for all their wisdom 
They tell me my ears are so young (home) 
Go back to from whence you came (home) 
My family tree my family name (home) 
For some strange reason it ahd to be (home) 
He guided me to Tennessee (home) 

Chorus 


Verse Three 

Now I see the importance of history 
Why people be in the mess that they be 
Many journeys to freedom made in vain 
By brothers on the corner playin ghetto games 
I ask you lord why you enlightened me 
Without the enlightment of all my folks 
He said cuz I set myself on a quest for truth 
And he was there to quench my thirst 
But I am still thirsty... 
The lord allowed me to drink some more 
He said what I am searchin for are 
The answers to all which are in front of me 
The ultimate truth started to get blurry 
For some strange reason it had to be 
It was all a dream about Tennessee
