Highway Donkey

When I was younger, I did not know how to be
I lived my own lie and never asked the question why
I always talked and dressed like everyone 'round me
Where were my own views and my own thoughts?
I didn't have a clue

Insecurity, no confidence that was my style
I did some false things, you'd say I was playing the wrong strings
To realize and see how lost I was, it took a while
But it was worth it, 'cause now I'm much more confident and fit

I'm not going down the highway
'Cause I had the might to stop
And turn around before it was too late
Instead I'm slowly going my way
And if I don't reach the top
I still got lots right here, I appreciate

Just because I'm older now, does not mean I'm incomplete
Yeah, I still have got fear, it's not as string but it's still here
And I'm confused at times, but now I know where to put my feet
Right in my own trail, that's the only place if I don't want to fail
