Highway Donkey

When I was younger I did not know how to be.

I lived my own lie and I never asked the questions why.

I always talked and dressed like everyone 'round me.

Where were my own view and my own thoughts?

I don't have a clue.

Insecurity, no confidence that was my style.

I did some false things,

you'd say I was playing the wrong strings.

To realize and see how lost I was, it took a while.

But it was worth it

'cause now I'm much more confident and fit.

I'm not going down the highway,

'cause I had the might to stop

and turn around before it was too late.

Instead I'm slowly going my way

and if I don't reach the top,

I still got loads here I appreciate.

Just because I'm older now

does not mean I'm complete.

Yeah, I still have got fear,

it's not as strong but it's still here.

And I'm confused at times,

but now I know where to put my feet.

Right in my own trail,

that's the only place if I don't wanna fall.
