From Canton to Cali

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Ryan Sexton left Canton, packed up his bags Red hair in the rearview, trading rag for rags Hit the interstate westbound, chasing the dream California sunset, gold on the screen Rolled into the valley, looking for a spot Met a lady named Aqua's mom, temperature hot One thing led to another, locked behind closed doors Heavy nights in the city, wild on the floor [Chorus] From Canton to Cali, then straight to the cell Every step of the story, another tale to tell Fled down to Texas when the cage broke wide Looking for a fresh start on the lone star side From Canton to Cali, moving down the line Searching for a new life, leaving past behind [Verse 2] Things got messy real quick, escalated fast Sirens flashing blue and red, couldn't make it last Cuffs on the wrists, taken down to the station Doing hard time on a long state vacation Counted every single day sitting in the concrete box Plotted on the exit till he picked through the locks Slipped out the back door, running through the night Texas on the horizon, vanishing from sight [Chorus] From Canton to Cali, then straight to the cell Every step of the story, another tale to tell Fled down to Texas when the cage broke wide Looking for a fresh start on the lone star side From Canton to Cali, moving down the line Searching for a new life, leaving past behind [Bridge] Across the border line, under Texas skies Met a girl from Mexico with the dark brown eyes No more running from the law, no more heavy chains Settled in the desert, washing off the stains [Outro] Red hair in the dust, brand new name Far away from Canton, far from the game Texas sun setting, story in the past Found a quiet corner where the peace might last [Fade Out]
