Lyrics of Backseat Driver by TobyMac

intro

Yeah
This the one right here

verse

Silly me, silly me, aye
Revertin' back to my old ways
Them got to be in control days
Jump before I pray
Yo, I'm headed out the doorway
But I want Your way, Yahweh
From dirt roads to highways
You're showin' me a beautiful view from this backseat
But there's lots of room and I never would have seen it if I wasn't rolling with you

chorus

I don't wanna be no backseat (don't wanna be), no backseat driver
I don't wanna navigate (don't wanna, uh), won't You take it over (take it over)
I don't wanna ever doubt You, I'm lost without You Lord
No, I don't wanna be no backseat (don't wanna be), no backseat driver

hook

You got the wheel, take me where You wanna go
My heart is Yours, no matter where we roll

verse

Been backseat my whole life
Now I turned 16 so it's time to drive
Buckle up, TRU behind the wheel
Got my iPhone bumping like (dom-da-dom)
GPS locked and the map was set
Thought I had it all right 'til the road went left
Spinning outta control in this Coupe de Ville
Now I'm sittin' shotgun, Jesus take the wheel

chorus

I don't wanna be no backseat (don't wanna be), no backseat driver
I don't wanna navigate (don't wanna, uh), won't You take it over (take it over)
I don't wanna ever doubt You, I'm lost without You Lord
No, I don't wanna be no backseat (don't wanna be), no backseat driver

hook

No backseat driver, ooh (yeah)
No backseat driver, ooh (uh)

bridge

I'm putting my trust in You, putting my trust in You
It's a little bit overdue, but I'm putting my trust in You
I'm putting my trust in You, putting my trust in You
It's a little bit overdue, but I'm putting my trust in You
Putting my trust in You, I'm putting my trust in You
It's a little bit overdue, but I'm putting my trust in You

verse

It's a whole new journey, a brand new path
And I'ma fix my eyes so I won't look back
Tame this beating heart in my chest
'Cause everything in my wants to jump ahead

verse

So light it up, up
Don't let it fade
Light it up, up
Show me the way
Light it up Lord, just like You do
No second guessin', I'ma move with You

chorus

I don't wanna be no backseat (don't wanna be), no backseat driver
I don't wanna navigate (don't wanna, uh), won't You take it over (take it over)
I don't wanna ever doubt You, I'm lost without You Lord
No, I don't wanna be no backseat (don't wanna be), no backseat driver

chorus

I don't want to be no backseat (don't wanna be no), no backseat driver
I don't want to be no, won't You take it over
I don't wanna ever doubt You, I'm lost without You Lord
I don't wanna be no backseat (don't wanna be), no backseat driver
