Chorus:
I'm on the road, dog
Got my backpack, maps and my road dogs
If you could see what we see
You would want to go where we're going, just to be where we'll be
In the presence of more than a baby boy
The Lord who can save you and save me
Or maybe if it's still not clear
Let wise men open your eyes and take you there
V.1
The sky was clear that night, right?
Cold, crisp air?
Yeah, the stars was mad bright
Remember that y'all?
But there was that one star that was shining brighter than them all
I remember, wasn't it December?
That's the wrong date
But it did put an end to our long wait
Coz we were getting restless while we waited
For a special Child with a mom highly favored
No more singing the blues
We knew the sky signified the coming of the King of the Jews
We'd studied the script
Next step was to study the trip
Packed up, we were ready to dip
Ready to roll
Wasn't even sweating the cold
We were convinced of His hotness
Ready to go!
Don't forget the planks that anchor the tents
And with the gold, grab myrrh and some frankincense
Let's go!
V.2
It's been a minute but we're still stepping, still trekking
Can't wait to put our eyes on what our heart's expecting
It's on, I can't wait to find the palace, recline in the palace
Sit back and drink wine from the chalice
You know they from out of town right?
They probably downtown in the Crown Plaza, not in Crown Heights
He probably got a long line waiting to see Him
I bet you even King Herod waiting to see Him
I should give him a call, he'll probably let me in
And if he hooking me up, then we all getting in
Man I called Herod, he don't know where He at
But he said if we find Him we should call him right back
I don't trust that dude, I ain't calling him back
Chill with all that, you can see we're on the right track
What makes you say that?
Coz the star's right there
Well if the star's right there
Then we must be here!
Let's go!
V.3
Fading in the distance
The place where all of us faced a twist
Deeper than the sixth sense
Wasn't what I expected to see
Someone as great as Him, living lesser than me
And truthfully we were blown away
By a King with no bling, just a throne of hay
Even shepherds had heard of Him
Somehow they got word of Him
Wise men, herdsmen, all of us worshiping
Anybody notice how the sheep and cows
Seem to peek and bow to the sleeping Child?
We went home a different way
Not just geographically but He impacted me
Never forget the day
We got to sit back and see God's presence
A present, gift-wrapped!
And I hope you get that
Coz when you got Jesus
You don't have to wonder where the gifts at
