Life's a hundred and five on an interstate flyin'
In a jet-black ride, runnin' red lights
With two feet down, stompin' the gas
Fast
It's a rollercoaster clickin' and climbin'
Holdin' your breath thinkin' you're gonna die
Screamin' the whole way down with your hands up high
Fast
You can't slow it down
You get one go 'round
We're all hurryin' up and tryin' to make it last
And we hold on tight
To this dear sweet life
Spinnin' our wheels with all we got
Tryin' to stop that tickin' clock from goin' past
Fast
It's black and white in a picture frame
Funny-haired dudes in high-rise jeans
And catchin' yourself sayin'
Boy, times sure have changed
And fast
It's three, it's ten, it's seventeen
It's twenty-one and you can't believe
Spittin' image of you and me's a man
Fast
It's forever gettin' to 18 weeks in hospital
Hooked to a cold machine and finally hearin'
The sound of that little heartbeat
Fast
You can't slow it down
You get one go 'round
It's a million little moments in your hands
We hold on tight
To this dear sweet life
Spinnin' our wheels with all we've got
Tryna stop that tickin' clock from goin' past
Fast, so fast, yeah
It's that split decision you're gonna make
A second chance you might not get to take
And knowin' whatever you do you can't turn back
Hope you always take that long way home
Slow down when you smell the roses
And whatever's makin' you mad, man, let it go
Fast
It's that midnight call
It's your worst fear
Momma crying, you need to get here
Please be safe, leave as soon as you can
Fast
It's a hundred and five on an interstate flyin'
In a jet-black ride, runnin' red lights
Hopin' to get there in time to hold his hand
Say I love you, dad... damn
Fast
Father, Son and Holy Ghost
Love and family, faith and hope (it's gonna go fast)
Father, Son and Holy Ghost
Love and family, faith and hope (get all you can)
Father, Son and Holy Ghost (it's gonna go fast)
Love and family, faith and hope (love all you can)
Father, Son and Holy Ghost (it goes so fast)
Love and family, faith and hope
