Born to Wander
Wandering Souls: Embracing Life's Journey Through Struggles
Lyrics
A song ain't worth a penny
A song holds little value.
A story ain't worth a dime
A story has limited worth.
And chances are you'll starve
Putting in effort may lead to hardship.
For putting in the time
Time invested may not guarantee success.
You know the road ain't always friendly
The journey can be harsh and unfriendly.
Man, she's bound to beat you down
Life's challenges can be overwhelming.
But there ain't nothing you could say
Despite difficulties, a commitment remains.
To make me leave her now
Determined to endure the challenges.
Maybe I was just born to wander
Expressing a natural inclination to wander.
Maybe I was just born to swim upstream
Preferably choosing a challenging path.
Easy street never looked appealing
Comfort and ease don't appeal.
Me, I'd rather keep running down a dream
Opting for a continuous pursuit of dreams.
You know there's quicker ways to get it
Alternative, quicker paths exist.
You'd make it hand over fist
Success could come easily.
If you'd just climb that corporate ladder
Corporate success seems simpler.
Hell, it'd be easier than this
Current struggles are challenging.
Why must you always choose the struggle
Choosing difficulty over ease repeatedly.
Why do you always pick the fight
Preferring to engage in fights or challenges.
Maybe I'm trying to feed some hunger
Maybe seeking personal growth or fulfillment.
Maybe I'm just trying to get it right
Attempting to find the right path.
Maybe I was just born to wander
Reiterating the inclination to wander.
Maybe I was just born to swim upstream
Repeating the preference for challenges.
Easy street never looked appealing
Easy life doesn't attract.
Me, I'd rather keep running down a dream
Choosing to persist in pursuing dreams.
You know I meant it, honey, when I said
Expressing commitment to a relationship.
For better or for worse
Commitment in both good and bad times.
It ain't enough to want it
Desire alone is insufficient.
You gotta prove just what you're worth
Proving one's worth is essential.
It may never get easier
Acknowledging ongoing challenges.
We may never win this fight
Accepting the possibility of not winning.
But that's alright
Acceptance of challenges and difficulties.
Yeah, honey, that's alright
Embracing the difficulties in the journey.
Maybe I was just born to wander
Reiterating the innate desire to wander.
Maybe I was just born to swim upstream
Emphasizing the preference for challenges.
Easy street never looked appealing
Easy life remains unattractive.
Me, I'd rather keep running down a dream
Continuing to pursue personal dreams.
Down this dream
Repeating the commitment to the dream.
Oh, down this dream
Reflecting on the ongoing dream.
Oh, honey, down this dream
Affirming the commitment to the dream.
