Lyrics

I been walkin' down the road

I have been walking along a path.

What it means I dunno

I'm uncertain about its significance.

I been walkin' down the highway

I have been walking on the highway.

With the bad food flyin by me

Various unpleasant or undesirable things are passing by quickly.

I' m an ordinary man

I am an ordinary person.

With a time bomb in my hand

I carry an imminent danger or explosive situation with me.

It keeps tickin' an I keep runnin

The danger continues, but I persist in moving forward.

Tryin to find out where I come from

I'm attempting to discover my origins or roots.

And there ain' t nothin' gonna take this road away

Nothing will cause me to abandon this path.

Nothin' gonna take this road away

-

Nothin' gonna take this road outta my heart

This path is deeply ingrained in my heart.

Nothin' gonna take this pain outta my heart

This pain or difficulty is deeply embedded in my heart.


I wake up sweatin in the night

I wake up sweating during the night.

Every town is only lights

Each town appears similar with bright lights.

I 'm addicted to the highway

I am addicted to the highway because I cannot conform to societal norms.

'cause I just can' t do things their way

I can't adhere to their way of doing things.

And there ain' t nothin gonna take this road away

Nothing will cause me to abandon this path.

Nothin gonna take that road away

Nothing will cause me to abandon that road.

Nothin gonna take that road outta my heart

That road is deeply entrenched in my heart.


highway I'm doin fine

I'm doing well on the highway.

You help me draw the line

The highway helps me set boundaries or limits.

No use in bein alive

There's no point in merely existing without truly living.

If I'm just rentin

If I'm merely surviving without making a meaningful impact, it's futile.

I undersand the circus well

I understand the chaos and unpredictability of life very well.

I've played the clown when down he fell

I've played the role of a fool when facing adversity.

But bein' down ain' t bein' loser

Being down or facing challenges doesn't equate to being a failure.

So just look out here comes a bruiser

Be prepared, as I am a strong and tough individual.

And there ain 't nothin gonna take my road away

Nothing will cause me to abandon my path.

Nothin' gonna take my road away

-

Nothin' gonna take my road outta my heart

That path is deeply entrenched in my heart.
