When I lost my way, found myself on rugged road

Hey, with a head full of trouble carryin' a heavy, heavy load

I was stumblin' blind, goin' 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 some 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 this road the same as I

Yeah, he had his bad and his good times, one day had to die

People, I made my way, now, I'm standin' in the sun

Yeah, with my struggle behind me, my life has just begun

Yeah, my life has just begun
