OutKast, Sleepy Brown, Scar - The Train lyrics

All aboard or, are all y'all bored?
It's good to have y'all back now
Ladies and gents
Y'all already know what it is
(God don't make no mistakes)
(God don't make no mistakes)

Little do they know when I was
Brought up in this game
'Twan ain't always in a vibe for spitting
I made a change
Like the diaper on the bottom
Of my baby daughter
I wasn't ready to be no father, maybe, kinda
Sorta 'Cause when I saw her
I swear it made a tear fall
Not tears of sorrow but of joy
So listen here y'all
I grabbed the mic and moved
The crowd then disappeared, dog
Back in '94, that was the motherfucking year
Homeboy
Then that Southernplayalistic went platinum
Stacks on deck
They ain't tell us to pay our taxes
Walking around the table in the
Kitchen just for practice
Reciting rhymes to sharpen mine
Now let's deliver to the masses

It's been a good long road
Now it's time for me to go
I say goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Time to spread my wings
So high up in the sky
I can fly, I fly, I fly, so high

Welcome to my life
I think it's time I take it back
I got to give you all the facts so
You can see what type of cat
That you dealing with
Now on ATLiens, we was killing it
And then my auntie passed, she
Was like my mother, i was feeling it
The first person close to me to die
I needed healing
But I see her as an angel when
I look up at the ceiling
Like my daddy and granddaddy on
Both shoulders steady chilling
So you got to keep on living
Like each day is the beginning
It's your birthday, even on your worst day
Live it like the first day, I'm Antwan Andre
Or General Patton if you know 'bout
Purple Ribbon or Got Purp
I, I be on that kryptonite
That means I can't be hurt
(Gotta leave this place it's been cool
But I got to go)

It's been a good long road
Now it's time for me to go
I say goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Time to spread my wings
So high up in the sky
I can fly, I fly, I fly, so high

Even on the train surely as truth remains
I'll be back again
(Know we been through a lot
And I ain't perfect
But I swear to you I'm a changed man)
Even on the train surely as truth remains
I'll be back again (From the caboose)

And now it's time to say goodbye
They should've turned me loose
I was all about my team but
Now I call upon my crew
I'm a family type of person
But I'm deadly dolo too
You can achieve anything that you
Put your heart into
See the second hand will never stop
And neither will the clock
The nigga Big still hit the stage
By hisself and still rock
Cus when your faith is in
The right place, see
He ain't gon' let you flop
You can say whatever you want
(Bet you can't do it like me) Boy, stop!

Before you say you can't hit goal
Please, no excuse this time
Don't be afraid to fly
You never know what day the doors will close
It's time to say goodbye time
To pack up and ride
Got to leave this place it's been
Cool but I gotta go
(I can take it from here
Ladies y'all done a good deed tonight)

It's been a good long road
Now it's time for me to go
I say goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Time to spread my wings
So high up in the sky
I can fly, I fly, I fly, so high
