[Yeah] [Close your eyes for a minute] [vibe with me] [while i do what i do, yeah] [i'm a traveling man baby you gotta respect gotta accept it i'm on the go, man. the world is calling check it out]
late night, i would write see the world through my composition, thirsty stay strong in the face of adversity now my rhymes took me further than i imagined torin, atlanta, sicily, manhattan, staten island right back to the valley just to show em how we do in central cali, my home
on the map now, they tell me sit in the throne i tell ‘em i'm not concerned with the crown or the robe just wanted to meet the world, become a man on my own and i did, now the name's household, santiago CA get hot, as i ran i hit Chicago it's the heart that guides me, my mind just follows
i go where the wind takes me samsonite bag full of clothes like jack hit the road to the next city fuck it, let's travel the globe luggage already packed, who knows when i'll be back
[chorus] they say i'm a rolling stone, where i rest my head is my home i let it be known that i'm a samsonite man, yeah i'm a samsonite man they say i'm a rolling stone, where i rest my head is my home i let it be known that i'm a samsonite man, yeah i'm a samsonite man
Uh, I was reflecting where I been and realized there wasn't nowhere back home looking at life in one long stare there comes a time in every man's mind he gotta get out get something, bring back something, don't sit around slumped, blunt in your hand, running from what? living for what? parents? so you can fry they can front like your peace but you keep the distance cus your piece of mind is so small giving the attention to y'all because they listening listen, i'm just one reflection you see me on stage and think of god reflecting but see i'm really just John, look my passport says so folks say i'm retro and i guess so bag over my shoulders no pack of clothes on the metro alone again looking out the window at the road again ask myself why i left home to roam when I've never been home or to Rome but i'm gone again
[chorus]
yeah, to the fans that supported me when i was down said i went hollywood cus i don't come around on the road seems like i'm always out of town i could even reach the globe or keep it underground
everyday is a journey i'm just trying to find my way left teardrops on my girl' pillowcase my unc' said we ain't got no time for that big sis said make sure your mind intact
it get lonely on the road don't forget about home got to know where you been to know where you going everything changes, before you know it you in the mirror realizing you getting older
i never thought that I would make it out the F got the respect that i ain't expect last night, can't remember where i slept one city at a time then it's on to the next
yeah it's on to the next yo where we at tonight? [chorus]
so on that note, imma pack my bags hit the road, yeah, i'm gone peace
