Yeah, it’s nostalgic
Travel back. 2006.
This is my destiny
But I ain’t tryin’a get ahead of me My lustful heart got the best of me Even though I try to be a better me Short term goals, kiss the girls like Morgan Freeman
I put these girls in my Ford Probe, and where we’re going, Lord knows
Where we going? Lord knows
Where we going? Lord knows
Lord knows.
So I put these girls in my Ford Probe, and where we going? Lord knows
Let me tell you about my first whip, I’ma let you get the inside o' her
All black, digital dashboard, so I nicknamed her Knight Rider
All red suede seats, it was like sittin on a white tiger
Made way back in '89, man they were probably still using typewriters
Fast forward, now it’s 06. Met this girl in IHOP
She gave me her number. I said maybe we could kick it up in my spot
Oops, I mean my mom’s spot
Anyway, we set a date. Went on plenty dates.
Always hit the park, and when we hit the park
It was very late.
If mom would’ve seen me in the car
She would probably beat me in the car
Cuz it was getting steamy in the car
That’s when the Spirit hit me in the car
And I’m like, 'man, can I live? Can’t you let me do anything?'
He said, 'son, I see you doing wedding things
But I don’t see no wedding ring'
Man, now that’s conviction. Couldn’t keep going in that condition
But what do I tell her? She ain’t really understand religion
And I ain’t have to fight with her, but I know it didn’t sit right with her
That’s when I knew that that night with her
Would probably be my last time with her
Cuz this is my destiny
But I ain’t tryin’a get ahead of me My lustful heart got the best of me But I know I’m about to be a better me Cuz my short term goals, I’ve gotta get this girl home
Talking to God in my Ford Probe, and where I’m going, Lord knows
Lord knows
Lord knows
Phone Call:
'Really? Are you just gonna ignore me, Michael?
How could you do this to me? After you were just all over me.
Every man I know left me. I told you how I suffer from rejection.
Now you leaving me too? And I poured out my heart to you.
You told me I was a part of you. Was that a lie too?
Answer me! Answer me, Michael'
But I didn’t answer back. Cuz at the time I couldn’t handle that
I told y’all she ain’t understand religion
And I didn’t know much about evangelism
So, I ignored it, and I floored it.
I didn’t speed in it. I did the speed limit.
But I digress, that not important. Let’s get back to the story.
So I’m swerving down Halls Ferry, 'bout to hit West Florissant
Got a lot in my mind, as I said, I was legally flooring it Anyway, I was thinking, was I too harsh? Did I seem mad?
Did I do right? Did she know that?
Should I tell her? Should I go back?
Hol' up. But in that moment. I went sober
And God took over.
My cup ran over.
I couldn’t control it. And tears start rollin'
And then I thought, 'I'm the reason for all my hurt
And this Ford Probe really just a fancy hearse
Will I be another one that feeds the dirt?
What kind of legacy will I leave this earth, huh?'
Was that me talking? That had to be heaven sent
That must’ve been God talking, cuz I ain’t that eloquent
That night I vowed if it’s meant to be, then it’s meant to be Who woulda known three years later I’d marry the 1 who was meant for me And where we going? Lord knows.
Where we going? Lord knows.
Lord knows.
And where we going? Lord knows.
Hol' up. But in that moment. I went sober
And God took over.
My cup ran over.
I couldn’t control it. And tears start rollin'
And then I thought, 'I'm the reason for all my hurt
And this Ford Probe really just a fancy hearse'
Then it crossed in. Took my knowldge, then I found out I was a hostage
MAN!
