Where The Day Takes Me

woke up with no big road map the sunshine spilling on the ball cap coffee in the thermos keys in a bowl tank half full and a wide open soul mama used to say boy think ahead daddy said work hard you get fed guess I landed somewhere in between chasing little moments in the in between I don't know every step I'll take but I know who holds the brakes Go where the day takes me Windows down, let the good Lord chase me Learning right from wrong is a roll along Try to turn my mess into a better song I ain't got a five year plan on paper Just to heart tune into the now, not later If I end up where I'm meant to be, maybe It's cause I follow where the day takes me Sometimes I'll land by the river with friends Fishing more for peace than what everybody sends Sometimes it's a call from someone in need So I skip the fun to show up and date I messed up, took wrong turns at night And real quick, the guilt don't feel right So I say my prayers, then I try again Let the lesson sink deeper than the sand I don't always know what's next in line, but But I know how it feels So I'll go where the day takes me. Windows down, let the good Lord chase me. Learning to rap along as I roll along. Trying to turn my mess into a better song. I ain't got a five-year plan on paper. Just a heart tuned in to the now, not later. If I end up where I'm meant to be, maybe. It's because I follow where the day takes me. Bright lives could be home early or a long late night All I know is if I love who's near Do the next right thing I'll get somewhere clear So I'll go where the day takes me Tailgate down, let the sunset paint me Learning right from wrong as I roll along Thanking God for every little borrowed dawn I ain't got a perfect path on paper Just to use me now, not a maybe later If I end up where I'm meant to be, baby One small step, one little grace Just trying to bloom in whatever place
