I'm still running 33's up underneath this truck Even though rush hour concrete is the only place I'm getting stuck Ain't on the farm no more but on a stretch of sunny days I still catch myself looking up at the sky Praying for a little rain No I can't outrun these roots Even if I wanted to Cause they run too strong, run too deep Cutting right through the heart of me No it don't matter where I plant these boots Can't outrun these roots I can't outrun these roots There's still that back-home part of me, that can't help but see things a little different Like how there ain't no need to put a 'G' on the end of huntin' or fishin' And I still got granddaddy's bible, his old rifle and his name But I also got his pour a little more Coarsin' through my veins No I can't outrun these roots Even if I wanted to Cause they run too strong, run too deep Cutting right through the heart of me No it don't matter where I plant these boots I can't outrun these roots Thank God I can't They're tangled up in every part of who I am Without 'em I know I don't stand a chance I can't outrun these roots I can't outrun these roots Cause they run too strong, run too deep Cutting right through the heart of me No it don't matter where I plant these boots Can't outrun these roots I can't outrun these roots

Life is a carousel Dancing 'round the mirrors we go up and down So let the music take away the hurt you've come to know so well Let it go cause... You can't turn back the hands of time Just let it go and you'll be fine What's done is done and its alright You cant turn back the hands of time Another day is gone Washed away with sorrows that you dwelled upon And as the moon is rising, you think to yourself I could be gone, if I go now You can't turn back the hands of time Just let it go and you'll be fine (woah) What's done is done and its alright You cant turn back the hands of time Naaaa na na na Na na na na Na na na naaa. Naaaa na na na Na na na na Na na na naaa. You can't turn back the hands of time Just let it go and you'll be fine (yeah) What's done is done and its alright You can't turn back the hands of time (na na na na na) You can't turn back the hands of time Just let it go and you'll be fine (yeah) What's done is done and its alright You can't turn back the hands of time

Circle of hands, cold spirits' plan, Searching my land for an enemy. Came across love's sweet cost And in the face of beauty evil was lost. Sky full of eyes. Minds full of lies. Black from their cold hearts down to their graves. Murder the dawn. Spreading their scorn. Cursing the sun of which love was born. We must keep them away or pretty soon we'll pay And count the cost in sorrow. Sacrifice, the future has its price And today is only yesterday's tomorrow. We must keep them away or pretty soon we'll pay And count the cost in sorrow. Sacrifice, the future has its price And today is only yesterday's tomorrow - tomorrow. Tomorrow Tomorrow Tomorrow Tomorrow
