Tennessee
AERLE JONES, TODD THOMAS
Lord, I've really been real stressed, down and out, losing ground
Although I am black and proud, problems got me pessimistic
Brothers and sisters keep messin' up, why does it have to be so damn tuff?
I don't know where I can go to let these ghosts out of my skull
My grandma past my brother's gone, I never at once felt so alone
I know you're supposed to be my steering wheel, not just my spare tire
(Home!) But Lord, I ask you
(Home!) to be my guiding force and truth
(Home!) For some strange reason it had to be
(Home!) he guided me to Tennessee
(Home!) Take me to another place, take me to another land
Make me forget all that hurts me, let me understand your plan
Take me to another place, take me to another land
Make me forget all that hurts me, let me understand your plan
Lord it's obvious we got a relationship
Talkin' to each other every night and day
Although you're superior over me
We talk to each other in a friendship way
Then outta nowhere you tell me to break
Outta the country and into more country
Past Dyesburg and Ripley
Where the ghost of childhood haunts me
Walk the roads my forefathers walked
Climb the trees my forefathers hung from
Ask those trees for all their wisdom
They tell me my ears are so young (Home)
Go back, from whence you came (Home)
My family tree, my family name (Home)
For some strange reason it had to be (Home)
He guided me to Tennessee (Home)
(Home!) Take me to another place, take me to another land
Make me forget all that hurts me, let me understand your plan
Take me to another place, take me to another land
Make me forget all that hurts me, let me understand your plan
Now I see the importance of history
Why my people be in the mess that they be
Many journeys to freedom made in vain
By brothers on the corner playin' ghetto games
I ask you, Lord why you enlightened me
Without the enlightenment of all my folks
He said, cuz I set myself on a quest for truth
And he was there to quench my thirst
But I am still thirsty
The Lord allowed me to drink some more
He said what I am searching for are
The answers to all which are in front of me
The ultimate truth started to get blurry
For some strange reason it had to be
It was all a dream about Tennessee
(Home!) Take me to another place, take me to another land
Make me forget all that hurts me, let me understand your plan
Take me to another place, take me to another land
Make me forget all that hurts me, let me understand your plan
Oh, won't you let me, won't you help me
won't you help me understand your plan
Take me home, take me home, home, take me to another place
Take me home, take me home, home, take me to another place
Lord, I've really been real stressed, down and out, losing ground
Señor, realmente he estado muy estresado, decaído, perdiendo terreno
Although I am black and proud, problems got me pessimistic
Aunque soy negro y orgulloso, los problemas me han vuelto pesimista
Brothers and sisters keep messin' up, why does it have to be so damn tuff?
Hermanos y hermanas siguen metiendo la pata, ¿por qué tiene que ser tan malditamente difícil?
I don't know where I can go to let these ghosts out of my skull
No sé dónde puedo ir para liberar estos fantasmas de mi cráneo
My grandma past my brother's gone, I never at once felt so alone
Mi abuela falleció, mi hermano se ha ido, nunca me sentí tan solo
I know you're supposed to be my steering wheel, not just my spare tire
Sé que se supone que debes ser mi volante, no solo mi rueda de repuesto
(Home!) But Lord, I ask you
(¡Hogar!) Pero Señor, te pido
(Home!) to be my guiding force and truth
(¡Hogar!) que seas mi fuerza guía y verdad
(Home!) For some strange reason it had to be
(¡Hogar!) Por alguna extraña razón tenía que ser
(Home!) he guided me to Tennessee
(¡Hogar!) él me guió a Tennessee
(Home!) Take me to another place, take me to another land
(¡Hogar!) Llévame a otro lugar, llévame a otra tierra
Make me forget all that hurts me, let me understand your plan
Hazme olvidar todo lo que me duele, déjame entender tu plan
Take me to another place, take me to another land
Llévame a otro lugar, llévame a otra tierra
Make me forget all that hurts me, let me understand your plan
Hazme olvidar todo lo que me duele, déjame entender tu plan
Lord it's obvious we got a relationship
Señor, es obvio que tenemos una relación
Talkin' to each other every night and day
Hablándonos cada noche y día
Although you're superior over me
Aunque eres superior a mí
We talk to each other in a friendship way
Hablamos de manera amistosa
Then outta nowhere you tell me to break
Entonces, de la nada, me dices que me vaya
Outta the country and into more country
Del país y hacia más campo
Past Dyesburg and Ripley

Donde el fantasma de la infancia me persigue
Walk the roads my forefathers walked
Camina por los caminos que mis antepasados caminaron

Sube a los árboles de los que mis antepasados colgaron
Ask those trees for all their wisdom
Pide a esos árboles toda su sabiduría
They tell me my ears are so young (Home)
Me dicen que mis oídos son muy jóvenes (Hogar)
Go back, from whence you came (Home)
Regresa, de donde viniste (Hogar)
My family tree, my family name (Home)
Mi árbol genealógico, mi apellido (Hogar)
For some strange reason it had to be (Home)
Por alguna extraña razón tenía que ser (Hogar)
He guided me to Tennessee (Home)
Él me guió a Tennessee (Hogar)
(Home!) Take me to another place, take me to another land
(¡Hogar!) Llévame a otro lugar, llévame a otra tierra
Make me forget all that hurts me, let me understand your plan
Hazme olvidar todo lo que me duele, déjame entender tu plan

Por hermanos en la esquina jugando juegos de gueto
I ask you, Lord why you enlightened me
Te pregunto, Señor, por qué me iluminaste
Without the enlightenment of all my folks
Sin la iluminación de toda mi gente
He said, cuz I set myself on a quest for truth
Él dijo, porque me puse en una búsqueda de la verdad
And he was there to quench my thirst
Y él estaba allí para saciar mi sed

Senhor, eu realmente estive muito estressado, para baixo, perdendo terreno
Although I am black and proud, problems got me pessimistic
Embora eu seja negro e orgulhoso, problemas me tornaram pessimista

Irmãos e irmãs continuam errando, por que tem que ser tão difícil?
I don't know where I can go to let these ghosts out of my skull
Não sei onde posso ir para liberar esses fantasmas da minha cabeça
My grandma past my brother's gone, I never at once felt so alone
Minha avó se foi, meu irmão se foi, nunca me senti tão sozinho
I know you're supposed to be my steering wheel, not just my spare tire
Eu sei que você deveria ser meu volante, não apenas meu pneu reserva

Lord, I've really been real stressed, down and out, losing ground
Tuhan, aku benar-benar stres, jatuh dan kehilangan pijakan
Although I am black and proud, problems got me pessimistic
Meskipun aku berkulit hitam dan bangga, masalah membuatku pesimis
Brothers and sisters keep messin' up, why does it have to be so damn tuff?
Saudara-saudaraku terus membuat kesalahan, mengapa harus begitu sulit?
I don't know where I can go to let these ghosts out of my skull
Aku tidak tahu kemana aku harus pergi untuk mengusir hantu-hantu ini dari kepalaku
My grandma past my brother's gone, I never at once felt so alone
Nenekku meninggal, saudaraku pergi, aku tidak pernah merasa sepi seperti ini
I know you're supposed to be my steering wheel, not just my spare tire
Aku tahu Engkau seharusnya menjadi kemudiku, bukan hanya ban serepku
(Home!) But Lord, I ask you
(Rumah!) Tapi Tuhan, aku meminta kepada-Mu
(Home!) to be my guiding force and truth
(Rumah!) untuk menjadi kekuatan dan kebenaran pemanduku
(Home!) For some strange reason it had to be

Then outta nowhere you tell me to break
Lalu tiba-tiba Engkau menyuruhku untuk pergi
Outta the country and into more country
Keluar dari negara dan ke lebih banyak pedesaan

tidakkah kamu akan membantuku mengerti rencana-Mu
Take me home, take me home, home, take me to another place
Bawa aku pulang, bawa aku pulang, pulang, bawa aku ke tempat lain

Bawa aku pulang, bawa aku pulang, pulang, bawa aku ke tempat lain
