Verse 1
Woke up this mornin', the rain pourin' down,
Heart feelin' heavy in this lonesome town.
Looked in the mirror, saw the years I’ve seen,
A story of struggle, lost hopes and dreams.
Chorus
Oh, I've been walkin' this road alone,
Through the highs and the lows, callin' this place my home.
Ain't nobody told me it'd be this hard to be free,
But I'm holdin' on tight, yeah, I still believe.
Verse 2
Life keeps on changin', like the rivers flow,
Took all my chances, some I let go.
But deep in my soul, there's a fire that stays,
Burnin' through the shadows, lightin' up my way.
Chorus
Oh, I've been walkin' this road alone,
Through the highs and the lows, callin' this place my home.
Ain't nobody told me it'd be this hard to be free,
But I'm holdin' on tight, yeah, I still believe.
Bridge
Sometimes I stumble, sometimes I fall,
But every bruise and scar tells it all.
With every tear, I'm closer to the light,
I won’t give up, no, not tonight.
Chorus
Oh, I've been walkin' this road alone,
Through the highs and the lows, callin' this place my home.
Ain't nobody told me it'd be this hard to be free,
But I'm holdin' on tight, yeah, I still believe.
Outro
So here I am, singin' this old blues,
With my heart on my sleeve, I got nothin' to lose.
Through the struggle and pain, I find my release,
In the rhythm of soul, I find my peace.
