When I come to these mountains
I cannot fly
So I must walk, a path, today…
Cause the journey must go on
The journey of life

I don’t know what to do, I don’t know what to fight
I don’t know where to go, there’s the left and right

When I look up, to find the way
I cannot see
So I must wait, for light, today…
Cause my eyes have been clouded
With the lies I hear

When I speak no one listens
I cannot be heard
So I must be, braver, today…
Cause I can clear the sky
To find my path

I don’t know what to do, I don’t know what to fight
I don’t know where to go, there’s the left and right

I cannot stop the journey
This is now the time I have to face
I cannot run, I cannot stop
I must go on

I cannot stop the journey
This is now the time I have to face
I cannot run, I cannot hide
I cannot see my destiny


The author's comments:
When people read this i want them to know that you choose your future. Most of the time you choose your future not knowing what might happen. I was going through a tough time when i wrote this. You must go on, you must solve the problems that you face otherwise they will stay with you and the problems you face have the potential of getting worse. Do what you can to make the best of your life.
