On the third and final single for keshi’s sophomore album, REQUIEM, “Texas” is an ode to his birth place; more specifically detailing his life growing up in Sugar Land.
[Verse 1]
Take me back to Texas, take me back to seventeen
Let me race the train tracks just to smell the gasoline
When we sipped on Moonshine and the sun was third-degree
When I had a lifetime waiting right in front of me
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
Take me back to Texas, take me back to twenty-three
When I ran from nothing and I wanted everything
Racin' down the highway, and I'm pickin' up the speed
Don't know where I'm going, but I think I gotta leave
[Chorus]
Oh, take me homе
I must've gotten lost when I was looking down thе road
But I think I missed the exit
Oh, someone take me back to Texas
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Take me back to Texas, take me back to evergreen
Should've never left it, should've kept that part of me
I know where I'm going, and it's where I'm supposed to be
I know where I'm going, and I hear it calling me
[Chorus]
Oh, take me home
'Cause I must've gotten lost when I was looking down the road
Oh, I think I missed the exit
Oh, someone bring me back to Texas
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro]
Okay, stand by there
