Fast Lane Promise

Open road

Empty dash

Got your name

On the glass

Blue flame

In my chest

You were speed

I was blessed

Every curve

You were calm

One hand up

Like a psalm

Said, “If I go

Don’t cry for me

Just ride for me

Live wild for me”

I still drive like you’re sittin’ right here

Fast lane promise, I’m changin’ the gear (yeah)

Every mile, I can feel you steer

You were gone too soon, but you stayed this clear

So I ride, ride, ride through the heartbreak

Try to turn all this pain into part of my faith

Said we’re brothers, that bond don’t break

Fast lane promise that I gotta keep awake (yeah)

Flashbacks

On the ramp

Cheap food

In the lamp

Laugh lines

On your face

Said “Fear

Ain’t the brakes”

You taught me

How to live

Not just take

Always give

Said, “Don’t chase fame

Chase who you are

If you’re pure

You already are a star”

I still drive like you’re sittin’ right here

Fast lane promise, I’m changin’ the gear (whoa)

Every mile, I can feel you steer

You were gone too soon, but you stayed this clear

So I ride, ride, ride through the heartbreak

Try to turn all this pain into part of my faith

Said we’re brothers, that bond don’t break

Fast lane promise that I gotta keep awake (yeah, yeah)

You ain’t in the rearview

You’re the road ahead (ahead)

Every prayer that I whisper

Got your words instead (uh)

If love had limits

You’d’ve hit the red line

But you kept givin’

Past the finish of time

I still drive like you’re sittin’ right here

Fast lane promise, I’m changin’ the gear

Every mile, I can feel you steer

You were gone too soon, but you stayed this clear

So I ride, ride, ride through the heartbreak

Turn this hurt to a vow that I won’t break

Said we’re brothers, that bond don’t shake

Fast lane promise that I’ll keep for your sake (yeah)
