From the recording The City Within
My most upbeat song, written at a time when I was at a low ebb, unsure of what the future would hold.
Lyrics
CHORUS:
I found a letter in the front of my car
Telling me to get out and take control, I’m gonna be a star
Don’t know where I’m bound, but I’m on one hell of a ride
If only I could see what’s waiting for me at the bottom of the slide
Out there on the highway is where I need to be
Playing show after show every night, and planting my seeds
Now I ain’t no hero, I just do what I can
Everything in my space will fall into place as part of the plan
‘Cause there’s a road up ahead, full of wonder and style
But it’s a lifetime investment; is it something worthwhile?
Oh, what should I do? Can I run up that hill?
When these cynical voices are holding me still?
(CHORUS)
Could it be inspiration? Is it holding me down?
Or is it something inside of my heart I just haven’t found
Well, now it’s time to move on, no more hiding in fear
I’m finding my way and with each passing day my visions are clear
‘Cause there’s a road up ahead, full of wonder and style
But it’s a lifetime investment; is it something worthwhile?
Oh, what should I do? Can I run up that hill?
When these cynical voices are holding me still?
(CHORUS)
