Kevin Stokley - Outlive Ourselves

I go back in my mind
Those Friday nights
Heart on my hand, removin’ my hat
Up in the stands, high school band
Playin that National Anthem
And all that I wanted was all that you had
In that hand-me-down car there was no looking back
Every question that life had to ask
We’d have forever to answer
Whether it’s train tracks or river banks
A bypass or water tanks
They’re all gonna crumble someday
But the memories stay
Out past all those freeways
Outlasting all those stars
Where the curfew county line freedom
Made us who we are
Out where God is watching
On the streets where we were raised
In the towns where we were famous
Where the spray paint knows our name
Tonight feels like maybe we could outlive ourselves
You get two summers that you never forget
You’re gonna be a legend but you don’t know it yet
The stories we tell, heaven and hell
Yeah, we got the scars to prove em
And all of those train tracks or river banks
Bypass or water tanks
They’re all gonna crumble someday
But the memories stay
Out past all those freeways
Outlasting all those stars
Where the curfew county line freedom
Made us who we are
Out where God is watching
On the streets where we were raised
In the towns where we were famous
Where the spray paint knows our name
Tonight feels like maybe we could outlive ourselves
Outlive our first kiss by a mile
Outrun our first midnight running wild
Outdream all the fires we felt inside
Tonight feels like maybe we could outlive ourselves
