So hard to answer future's riddle
 When ahead is seeming so far behind
 So hard to laugh a child-like giggle
 When the tears start to torture my mind
 So hard to shed the life of before
 To let my soul automatically soar
 
But I hit hard at the battle that's confronting me, yeah
 Knock down all the roaddblocks a-stumbling me
 Throw off all the shackles that are binding me down
 
Sew up the wounds of evolution
 And the now starts to get in my way
 So what if life's a revelation
 If the mind speaks of only today
 So real, the pain growing in my soul
 Of climbing up to reality's goal
 
But I hit hard at the battle that's confronting me, yeah
 Knock down all the roaddblocks a-stumbling me
 Throw off all the shackles that are binding me down
 
Long promised road
 Trail starts at dawn
 Carries on to the season's ending
 Long promised road
 Flows to the source, gentle force, never ending, never ending
 
So hard to lift the jeweled sceptre
 When the weight turns a smile to a frown
 So hard to drink of passion nectar
 When the taste of life's holding me down
 So hard to plant the seed of reform
 To set my sights on defeating the storm
 
So I hit hard at the battle that's confronting me, yeah
 Knock down all the roaddblocks a-stumbling me
 Throw off all the shackles that are binding me down
 
Oh, yeah-eah-eah-eah
 
Hit hard at the battle that's confronting me, yeah
 Knock down all the roaddblocks a-stumbling me
 Throw off all the shackles that are binding me down
 
Oh, yeah-eah-eah-eah
 
Hit hard at the battle that's confronting me, yeah
 Knock down all the roaddblocks a-stumbling me
 Throw off all the shackles that are binding me down
 
I'd love to see you
 I'd love to see you
 I'd love to see you
 I'd love to see you
 I'd love to see you
