When I lost my way, found myself on rugged road
Having a head full of trouble carrying a heavy, heavy load
I was stumbling blind, going down that rugged road
And no one could help me I had to walk that road alone

When I met my friend, he said, "Brother can I help you please"
Said, "I know you got worries maybe some that I can ease"
It's a long, long way and you might need some company
But I just couldn't hear him and he just let me be

And my father before me, walked that road the same as I
He had his bad and his good times, one day he had to die
People I made my way, and now I'm standing in the sun
And with my struggle behind me, my life has just begun
And my life has just begun
