The Way
Wandering Souls: Embracing Life's Journey Through 'The Way'
Lyrics
I'm heading out for a hike today
Expresses the intention to embark on a hike
Gonna climb a mountain, gonna get away
Plans to climb a mountain as a means of escape
Those white blazes calling my name
The trail markers are drawing the individual forward
And God I hope, I can take the pain
Hoping to endure the challenges and discomforts along the way
Slow it down when life moves fast
Desire to slow down amidst life's rapid pace
That fleeting glance, that blade of grass
Appreciating small moments or details in life
The air is sweet this far from the city
Enjoying the freshness of the air away from urban areas
Away from the noise, away from pity
Escaping from noise and feelings of pity
Thoughts running through your head
The importance of expressing one's thoughts
Don't leave a thing unsaid
Encouragement not to leave important words unspoken
No you're not better off dead
Rejecting the notion that one is better off dead
Get on your way
Encouragement to commence the journey
Well a girl named Jackie and a dog named Lou
Referencing companions, highlighting their movement
They keep moving, I follow suite
The individual follows their companions
The wind is howling, but I'm not moved
Despite challenges, the individual remains resolute
Cause my family tree, has got deep roots
Emphasizing deep roots and connection to heritage
When your life plays out in just one act
Life passing quickly without time for reflection
No time to think, only to react
Living without much time for contemplation
Looking back on the lives we lead
Reflecting on experiences and choices
Things we'll never admit to, but we'll never forget
Unspoken truths and unforgettable experiences
Thoughts running through your head
Reiteration of the importance of expressing thoughts
Don't leave a thing unsaid
Encouragement to articulate one's feelings
No you're not better off dead
Rejecting the idea of preferring death over life
So get on your way
Encouragement to start the journey
Well, I'm lost and I am found along the way
Feeling both lost and found during the journey
Ya, don't know where I'm going to today
Uncertainty about the destination
Ya, all I know is I can't stay
Feeling unable to remain in one place
Ya, if I get lost, show me the way
Requesting guidance if lost along the way
Well, I'm lost and I am found along the way
Reiteration of feeling lost and found during the journey
Ya, don't know where I'm going to today
Continued uncertainty about the destination
Ya, all I know is I can't stay
Feeling unable to stay in one place
Ya, if I get lost, show me the way
Requesting assistance if lost along the way
