A Long Way to Get
Journey of Redemption: A Long Way to Find Inner Peace
Lyrics
I've got a mountain to climb before I get over this hill
I face significant challenges before overcoming my current difficulties.
I've got the world to unwind before I ever sit still
I need to unravel the complexities of the world before finding peace.
I've got a hard row to hoe before my seed is sown
I have a difficult path to follow before achieving success or fulfillment.
I've got a long way to get before I get back home
A journey lies ahead of me before I return to my home.
I've got so much to put down before that's all she wrote
I have a lot to express or accomplish before reaching the end.
I've got so much to give before my heart ain't so broke
I possess much to offer before healing from emotional pain.
I've got to find myself before I can ever be alone
Self-discovery is necessary before achieving independence.
I've got a long way to get before I get back home
A considerable distance remains in my journey before returning home.
And there's an ocean of reason that I can't explain
There are reasons for my actions or emotions that are challenging to articulate.
And there's the weight of the world like a ball and chain
The burdens of life weigh on me like an inescapable restraint.
And there's a big black hole inside me that I've filled up with stones
I carry a profound emptiness within, filled with burdens or troubles.
I got a long way to get before I get back home
My journey towards resolution is extensive before reaching home.
There's a man I've never met who looks a lot like me
There's a stranger, possibly a metaphor for an undiscovered aspect of myself.
There's a little place called heaven that
Heaven is an elusive place that may remain out of reach for me.
I'll probably never see
Possibly a reflection on the unattainability of a peaceful state of mind.
There's a thing called peace of mind that I have never known
The concept of peace of mind is foreign or unattainable in my experience.
I've got a long way to get before I get back home
The journey toward resolution or self-discovery continues.
