Holbrook didn't consider a career in music until November of 2013 when he began posting videos of himself singing. He was inspired to begin posting after almost cutting off his leg working as a lumberjack.
Follow That Dust
Taylor Ray Holbrook Lyrics

Hop in the truck and fill it up
Head to the river relax
Cool off just like that
When you need a little let-go
You can meet me at the back road
When life gets tough
You've had enough
You can follow that dust
You can follow that dust
Back in the day we played
Didn't know money needed to be made
We were outside all day
With some real tunes on replay
Everything now-nowadays
Feelings a little too fast we need to slow the pace
Take a break
Grab beer and hang a left
You can follow that dust, go with us
Hop in the truck and fill it up
Head to the river relax
Cool off just like that
When you need a little let-go
You can meet me at the back road
When life gets tough
You've had enough
You can follow that dust
You can follow that dust
Look at the way we've changed
That land with the cattle graze
No more remains
Just pavement and four lanes
We roll up in the big old truck
A bunch of [?] old boys looking for mud
Serenity, our remedy
We let it be when we-
Follow that dust, go with us
Hop in the truck and fill it up
Head to the river relax
Cool off just like that
When you need a little let-go
You can meet me at the back road
When life gets tough
You've had enough
You can follow that dust
You can follow that dust
You can follow that dust
You can follow that dust
You can follow that dust
You can follow that dust
Down the road
Yeah, you know where it goes
You can follow that dust
Down the road
Let it go on the back of the back road
You can follow that dust, go with us
Hop in the truck and fill it up
Head to the river relax
Cool off just like that
When you need a little let-go
You can meet me at the back-at the back road
When life gets tough
You've had enough
You can follow that dust
You can follow that dust
You can follow that dust
You can follow that dust
You can follow that dust
You can follow that dust
The lyrics of Taylor Ray Holbrook's song "Follow That Dust" are an invitation to escape from the hectic and complicated modern world and spend some time with friends in nature. The song is a tribute to the simplicity and freedom of the past, when life was less about money and more about enjoying simple pleasures. Holbrook talks about a time when they didn't have to worry about money, and they would spend all day outside listening to some good music. The land was filled with cattle instead of pavements, and they would take their big old truck and look for mud, enjoying the serenity that comes with being surrounded by nature. The song encourages listeners to leave their worries behind and hit the back roads, where they can cool off in the river and find some peace.
In a deeper sense, "Follow That Dust" can be interpreted as a commentary on society's alienation from nature and the need for people to reconnect with the natural world. As people become more removed from nature and depend more on technology, they are becoming more stressed and disconnected from themselves and the world around them. Holbrook's lyrics suggest that the back roads and natural environments can offer a sense of peace, joy, and tranquility that are missing from modern life.

Back in the day we played
In the past, we would have fun
Didn't know money needed to be made
We didn't realize that everything would ultimately come down to money
We were outside all day
We would spend the whole day outdoors
With some real tunes on replay
Listening to music we truly enjoyed
Everything now-nowadays
Everything nowadays
Feelings a little too fast we need to slow the pace
Everything moves too quickly, we need to take a step back
Take a break
Take some time off
Grab beer and hang a left
Drink beer and turn left
Look at the way we've changed
Reflect on how much we've changed
That land with the cattle graze
The land where cows used to roam and graze
No more remains
There's nothing left
Just pavement and four lanes
Just roads and highways
We roll up in the big old truck
We arrive in the large truck
A bunch of [?] old boys looking for mud
A group of older men looking to get dirty
Serenity, our remedy
We find peace in nature
We let it be when we-
We let it be when we experience serenity and peace
Down the road
Further down the dirt road
Yeah, you know where it goes
You're familiar with where it leads
Let it go on the back of the back road
Relax and let everything go on the dirt road
