It means a lot to me.

This song is... I guess you could wrap it up and say it's about family.

But more specifically; there's this story that

when I was younger I had some older cousins

that lived in Michigan,

and I always looked up to them because they were older and cooler.

And, umm...

there was this story where the, umm...

the younger brother (of my cousins)

was kind of a loud mouth, got into a lot of trouble,

very cocky.

And his older brother, who also played football with him, was much more quiet.

Didn't talk a lot.

And, it got to the point where...

the younger cousin was running his mouth so much...

the rival high school football team showed up to his house.

So in this song I talk about...

people at the end of your driveway, calling out your name.

It's in reference to the story because

what happened is

the older cousin, who was always very quiet, kept to himself...

No one knew that he was a black belt.

[laughs]

And he went on to the end of the driveway and he took care of business

And so, that story was stuck with me.

You know, defending your family, sticking up for them.

And, as I was writing this song, I was thinking about, if I were in that position...

if I had to go defend my family

I realized...

I would probably need a weapon, so I'm gon-

[laughs]

so I'm gonna introduce a bat into this story.

Because my soft hands probably wouldn't be able to punch anyone (?) in the face

When everyone

you thought you knew

deserts your fight,

I'll go with you.

You're facing down

a dark hall.

I'll grab my light

and go with you

I'll go with you,

I'll go with you,

I'll go with you.

Surrounded and

up against a wall

I'll shred them all,

and go with you.

When choices end,

you must defend.

I'll grab my bat,

and go with you,

I'll go with you,

I'll go with you,

I'll go with you, yeah.

Stay with me,

no.

You don't need to run, stay with me,

my blood.

You don't need to run.

Stay with me,

no.

You don't need to run, stay with me,

my blood.

If there comes a day

people posted up at the end of your driveway

they're calling for your head and they're calling for your name,

I'll bomb down on them, I'm coming through.

Do they know I was grown with you?

if they're here to smoke know I'll go with you.

Just keep it outside, keep it outside, yeah.

Stay with me, no.

You don't need to run, stay with me,

my blood.

You don't need to run.

Stay with me, no.

You don't need to run,

stay with me, my blood.

You don't need to run.

Oh, oh.

You don't need to run.

Oh, oh.

You don't need to run.

Oh, oh.

You don't need to run.

Oh, oh.

If you find yourself

in a lion's den,

I'll jump right in,

and pull my pin,

and go with you,

I'll go with you,

I'll go with you,

I'll go with you,

my blood I'll go with you.

Stay with me,

no.

You don't need to run,

stay with me, my blood.

You don't need to run.

Stay with me, no.

You don't need to run.

Stay with me, my blood.

You don't need to run.

stay with me, no.

You don't need to run.

Stay with me, no.

You don't need to run.

Stay with me, no.

You don't need to run.

Stay with me, my blood.
