Verse

Passion and faith help you stay safe

Sometimes it’s better if you’re patient and wait

Remember we all are just human

Can’t understand God’s divine higher plan ensuing

Only an illusion of power and control

Each of us have a heart, a mind and a soul

We need to individually make the right choices

Instead of perpetuating violence use our voices

Evolution could occur without revolution

Earth is like an institution we’re life’s student

It’s very necessary and prudent

To ascend and elevate when you’re wounded

Getting that adrenaline pumping

Highly energized and jumping

Often takes courage and bravery

Not being so lazy

And yes maybe even having to use when you’re iratingly

hatingly mad and angry

Chorus

When the road’s too long

You’re not strong enough to go on

Put one foot in front of the other

Take a step forward then another

Don’t fall to your knees

Beg the Lord to help you please

Stop questioning why

Looking up in the sky

Listen wise guy

You can do anything you want if you try

Verse

Tell me what the hell is the purpose

Why do we suffer so much stuff that hurts us

Many unnatural disasters

Men playing God’s a factor

Peeps keep searching for answers

For the awful atrocities like aids and cancer

But isn’t it all just guess

Infinite amounts of randomness

We’re really insignificant

In the grand scheme of things

Itty bitty minimal and small

Blissfully ignorantly unaware of it all

When will we learn

It could take years to discern

Journeying the valleys and hills

Is what sharpens our talents and skills

Chorus

When the road’s too long

You’re not strong enough to go on

Put one foot in front of the other

Take a step forward then another

Don’t fall to your knees

Beg the Lord to help you please

Stop questioning why

Looking up in the sky

Listen wise guy

You can do anything you want if you try

Verse

Conquer the conflict and hurdles

Avoid going around in circles

Though I fall I stand tall and rise

Try be flexible and compromise

I’ve learned to never burn bridges

Shouldn’t be too strict or rigid

Leave room to grow

Show how to dream and hope

Without doubt or worries inside

Teach to reach high up and touch sky

You’ll get out what you put in

But be a giving virtuous person

Time’s going to fly by fast

You better man up for that last task

Karma’s going to come back and bite

Put your dukes up ‘cause here comes the fight of your life

Chorus

When the road’s too long

You’re not strong enough to go on

Put one foot in front of the other

Take a step forward then another

Don’t fall to your knees

Beg the Lord to help you please

Stop questioning why

Looking up in the sky

Listen wise guy

You can do anything you want if you put your mind to it and try

You can do it if you put your mind to it and try …
