Know Yourself (feat. Joy Chen & Tommy Neuner)

As I sit behind the wheel Of my rusty Bronco truck I just don't know what to feel So I turn the key and I fire it up It was an open casket wake Just laying there at peace Nobody else in the whole wide world Could see what I could be They say, "Don't you get too smart Trudge the mud. Pull that cart" But my uncle opened up his heart to me There's a whole wide world for you to see Don't just drive from A to B 'Cause knowledge really is the only wealth So know yourself! Well I listened to my folks Just working while I wait Law job's lined up in early May So I'll work job I hate Bye guys, thank you, have a great night! Standing at the register Before the cafe's morning rush When a hobo walks in with a broken grin And asked me for a cup I said, "Only if you pay Take your cart, be on your way" But he just smiled and laughed at me There's a whole wide world for you to see Don't just drive from A to B You gotta take that book from off the shelf Climb mountains out across the sea There's more to life than Tennessee 'Cause knowledge really is the only wealth So know yourself! So I filled him up a cup And asked him where he's been Said he served his time in the Korean War Been trucking ever since When he asked me why I'm here I told him this is where I was born Got family here and friends who care I'm in a rut well worn And I'm thinkin' I'm due for a change My friends can wait, my pressure gauge Is about to blow, my heart's about to melt So Uncle Gary, here I come! A round-the-world trip for one I'll take a chance, and play the cards I'm dealt There's a whole wide world for you to see Don't just drive from A to B You gotta take that book from off the shelf, oh! Climb mountains out across the sea There's more to life than Tennessee 'Cause knowledge really is the only wealth So know yourself! Know yourself!
