Run Like The River

One hopeful road
 That my mama showed to me
 From the moment I first stand and
 I didn't know
 Back there and then she released me free
 From that patched up shackle down my pa was handed
 She said, "Tyrone
 Go be the king you're meant to be
 Like a stone, roll on your mission"
 "Hurry now, son
 'Cause there are songs need to be sung
 And you're the one to reach the heart and it will listen"
 Mother said, "Run, baby, run
 Go ahead, run, baby, run"
 Mother said, "Run, baby, run"
 Run like the river
 ♪
 ♪
 As wheels do turn
 Is how I go, you all sure should know, as flames do burn, I am ignited
 Towards the wind, through squinted eyes I look ahead
 'Cause in the end the road behind me long been ridin'
 Mother said, "Run, baby, run
 Go ahead, run, baby, run"

 Hopeful road that my mama showed to me
