35
I've been from here to there and back again, from the tip of Maine down to Miami.
I've had cali nights rise into Phoenix days, or was I Chicago lost in a midtown haze?
Yea I've seen the sights and my share of fights,
every sweat soaked stage under these buzzing lights.
And all that has lead me here to you.
Cause all my life is laid out on the line,
I swear that I ain't lying about what I've seen with my sweet baby blues.
Ive seen the women and the drugs both are dangerous stuff.
You could get a taste not want to give it up.
I used to drown myself in drink, thought that I couldn't sink.
Then the world went and got the best of me.
Almost took my life back at 24, spent awhile trying to find the self I was looking for.
Yea I think I've found it now.
Cause all my life is laid out on the line,
I swear that I ain't lying about what I've seen with my sweet baby blues.
I once broke a finger to stopped from being mugged,
I saw 80k get buried in a duff,
I remember going 140 down the freeway with no windows at night.
I was young and dumb, saw a lot of bad things.
Taught me a lot about who I wanna be.
I remember thinking, just what do I wanna do?
When all my life is laid out in everyone, well I guess it's time to say.
Ain't no way, I ain't done yet, I'm Just getting started baby
Cause all my life is laid out on the line,
I swear that I ain't lying about what I've seen with my sweet baby blues.
I know it's hard sometimes a struggle just to stay alive,
but here I am and thriving at 35.
