Hillbilly That Saved Me Lyrics

Man, you ain't country at all, but I was saved up on a hilltop

Country and all is where my heartbeat never will stop

Man, you ain't country at all, but I'll keep driving till the wheels pop

But I been country and all, with barefoot and woods and creek rocks

Man, you ain't country at all, but I was saved up on a hilltop

Country and all is where my heartbeat never will stop

Man, you ain't country at all, but I'll keep driving till the wheels pop

But I been country and all, with barefoot and woods and creek rocks

I was fifteen, with a big ol' dream

Dirty boots, red neck, with the ripped up jeans

White boy on the screen, yellin' Hillbilly

And it sparked my mood to hear what I need

Grab a mic and a pen, write what I bleed

Right from the heart, but nobody believed

Not even me, can not believe it's true

Cause everybody at school just laughed at me

Threw away the dreams, threw away the cards

That was dealt for me, like a broken heart

Cause nobody round here rapping country bars

But I knew deep down I would be the star

I'ma be a legend, I'ma make 'em hate me

I'ma grind so hard that it can't replace me

All because another country dude inside of Tennessee sayin' things I'm thinking

I took a huge leap of faith and turned my hobby to a career

Now I'm drivin' on the road with my idol, no switching gears

Nobody thought I would make it, cause every blood, sweat, and tear

Turned out to be a Holler Boy, I know everybody fears

See, I'ma turn out fine with the roads I know

I'ma walk my path standing on ten toes

Keep my head up high, heart is beatin' real slow

Cause I was stuck at the bottom workin' on my own

Hard work and dedication, knew I had it in my favor

Now I'm getting shared around from all my biggest inspirations

With that dude that's rapping Hillbilly, that's always in my playlist

But I bet he doesn't know he saved my life, how do I thank him?

Talkin' now in present day, I'm getting comments on the daily

How I saved somebody's life with all my lyrics that I'm placing

In the songs that they would listen to repeated on the daily

Now they put me on their playlist with the Hillbilly that saved me

That's why I keep this dream alive so nobody can have a nightmare

Like I did in beginning, like the shadow into my mirror

I threw the stone across the water, Creek Squad held me right there

I got a family that's forever and I'm blessed you standin' right there

But, you ain't country at all, but I was saved up on a hilltop

Country and all is where my heartbeat never will stop

Man, you ain't country at all, but I'll keep driving till the wheels pop

But I been country and all, with barefoot and woods and creek rocks

Man, you ain't country at all, but I was saved up on a hilltop

Country and all is where my heartbeat never will stop

Man, you ain't country at all, but I'll keep driving till the wheels pop

But I been country and all, with barefoot and woods and creek rocks

I don't know why people are so afraid to give the flowers out where it needs be

I'm just here to stand my ground and stand my peace

And let everybody know that

Music saved my life, Upchurch saved my life

Thank you

Creek Squad I love you

You've been here since the beginning and I'm not goin' away

It's JustTrae
