[Verse 1]
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 roller coaster clickin' and climbin'
Holdin' your breath thinkin' you're gonna die
Screamin' the whole way down with your
Hands up high
Fast
[Chorus]
You can't slow it down
You get one go-'round
We're all hurrying' 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
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
It's three, it's ten, it's seventeen
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
[Chorus]
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
Tryin' stop that tickin' clock from goin' past
Fast, so fast, yeah
[Verse 4]
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
[Verse 5]
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
[Verse 6]
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
And say "I love you, dad"
Damn
Fast
[Outro]
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
