Lyrics
[Intro]
Yeah
Uh-huh
Let's go
[Verse 1]
Six AM waiting on the corner
Cold breeze talking to my mama's prayer
Got a borrowed pair of shoes on my feet
But I got a dream that's twice my size
Soul train line running down the block
Every head turned toward the stop
I was just a kid with a cardboard sign
And a voice that wouldn't stay inside
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I'm stepping forward
Watch me take my place
Heart is beating louder
Got my Sunday face
[Chorus]
Soul train line took me higher
Soul train line rang me through
Every station got my number
Every mile I'm coming through
Soul train line got my back now
Soul train line know my name
Riding cross this old cracked pavement
Leaving nothing but a flame
[Hook]
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Yeah
[Verse 2]
Faded billboard of the man I'll be
Graffiti spelling out my destiny
Old men shaking heads at the way I talk
But their sons repeat the words I walk
Took a bus that broke down twice
Still I showed up for the price
Made a promise to my grandmother's frame
That I'd never treat this life the same
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I'm stepping forward
Nothing left to prove
Heart is beating louder
Watch me make my move
[Chorus]
Soul train line took me higher
Soul train line rang me through
Every station got my number
Every mile I'm coming through
Soul train line got my back now
Soul train line know my name
Riding cross this old cracked pavement
Leaving nothing but a flame
[Bridge]
(Keep on going) keep on going
(Keep on knowing) keep on knowing
Every door that ever shut
I unlocked it with my gut
(Keep on going) don't you stop
(Keep on glowing) to the top
[Chorus]
Soul train line took me higher
Soul train line rang me through
Every station got my number
Every mile I'm coming through
Soul train line got my back now
Soul train line know my name
Riding cross this old cracked pavement
Leaving nothing but a flame
[Outro]
Soul train
Soul train
Yeah
