Growing up as a young boy
Sometimes can be rough
At six years old I was thinkin
Seven would be just enough
But I was wrong
Ooo I was wrong yea
Ten years old and Im growin
Thinkin I got it sussed
Mama said youll be a fine young man
I thought I already was
But I was wrong
Ooo I was wrong
Cause when you get where youre going
The roads still long
Eighteen years Im a rebel
Thinkin Im pretty tough
Daddy said you got a lot to learn
I thought that Id learned enough
But I was wrong
Ooo I was wrong yea
Twenty-five was a good time [bad word] into my own
Climbed the mountain
And I reached for the sky
I thought that I had it all
But I was wrong
Ooo I was wrong
Cause when you get where youre going
The roads still long when you get where youre going
The roads still long
They all try to tell you
But who are they to say
Cause the best things that you learn
You find out on your way
No time for feelin sorry
Just time for being strong
When you get where your going
The roads still long
Now I see where [bad word] from
Now I see where I am
Now I see that you never really know
So you just gotta do the best you can
And that aint wrong
Ooo that aint wrong no
Cause when you get where youre going
The roads still long
When you get where youre going
The roads still long
When you get where youre going yea
