From Jackson Street To 'E' Street

From Jackson Street to ‘E’ Street Seems like it’s not that far But that depends on how you look at it. It depends on where you are. You see, Jackson Street is the dope street Where the so-called low life lurches. ‘E’ Street is where the Christians go. It’s the street with all the churches. The people on Jackson Street party down. They really know how to have fun. They just won’t admit the dope is taking Them all one by one. It’s hard to admit when you’re having fun That you’re not having fun at all. When you realize you’re smoking up your life Fun is not what that’s called. So you start looking over at ‘E’ Street Calling on the name of the Lord. He’s on Jackson Street too. He hears you. He knows your journey is hard. You don’t want anyone to know In case you’re not strong enough to do it. When you called His name He went to work. He’s gonna see you through it. Even if you fall, get back up And call on Him again. He’ll walk with you step by step. There is no better friend. Nobody’s really happy on Jackson Street But if you find yourself there one day Remember from Jackson Street to ‘E’ Street Is a mighty, mighty long way.
