You'll Never be a Prophet Video (MV)

I ventured south on 35 when I was 23
I got to share some stories with the people of OKC
When I got home the next day, my friends were not around
You'll never be a prophet in your own hometown
They say a man's an expert when he's 50 miles from home
Just an ordinary fellow, an everyday unknown
Stand right up and sing loud, don't ever make a sound
You'll never be a prophet in your own hometown
Your words will never mean a thing if they carry weight at all
At the corner tavern, you blend into the wall
All your friends and neighbors, they only bring you down
You'll never be a prophet in your own hometown
I talk to my neighbors; I talk to my friends
They don't even hear me, they just smile and nod their heads
This might be my destiny, lost until I'm found
You'll never be a prophet in your own hometown
Naw, your words will never mean a thing if they carry weight at all
At the corner tavern, you blend into the wall
All your friends and neighbors, they only bring you down
You'll never be a prophet in your own hometown
Naw, you'll never be a prophet in your own hometown
