Todas as músicas que eu escuto influenciam algo em mim, tanto no modo de pensar como no de agir. Me surpreendem como algumas pessoas podem ser tão doces, sensíveis e quase perfeitas. Conseguem fazer eu enxergar aquilo que eu nunca teria prestado atenção e ficar horas imaginando, sentindo uma energia estranha e uma alegria indescritível mesmo sem ter feito nada o dia inteiro, somente pelo prazer ao escutá-las. São vozes não enjoáveis e doces acompanhadas por uma melodia envolvente que faz suspirar e espalha a paz e a calma em todo o ambiente. Ficam gravadas na memória lições e frases que podem ser levadas para a vida inteira.
"Don't wanna get there wishing that you'd given more"
"Leave behind all the things I miss
The next stop isn't where you think it is
'Cause tonight I'm riding off the rails"
"He said 'sit down son, we gotta talk'
I said 'it’s my life, I’m gonna do what I want
I’m not gonna crawl, Im gonna walk
Walk right out that door'
He said 'I used to be a lot like you
Theres nothing you’ve done that I didn’t do'
I laughed and said 'Dad I’m bullet proof
We’ve been through this before'
I couldn’t believe it there was a tear in my old man’s eye
When I was leaving he tried to say goodbye
He said
Stand tall when you stumble stay proud when you’re humbled
The lessons you learn won't be the ones you plan
Every step up that mountain will be more than worth counting
But when you walk through the valley may you walk like a man
I’ve seen a couple of miles on a gravel road
Been taught a couple things that I didn’t know
Now I even got a kid of my own starting to sound a lot like me
I learned a little thing called sacrifice
Given up on dreams, lost a couple fights
All anybody wants is a better life and something to believe
Stand tall when you stumble stay proud when you’re humbled
The lessons you learn won't be the ones you plan
Every step up that mountain will be more than worth counting
But when you walk through the valley may you walk like a man
I couldn’t believe it when the tears came to my eyes
It isn’t easy standing on the other side
I said 'sit down son, we gotta talk
Hey it’s your life, you’re gonna do what you want
I won't say crawl before you walk
Cause I heard my old man in my mind saying'
Stand tall when you stumble stay proud when you’re humbled
All the lessons you learn won't be the ones you plan
Every step up that mountain will be more than worth counting
But when you walk through the valley may you walk like a man
And when you go on without me, walk like a man
Walk on"
"I used to be the kind of guy
Who'd never let you look inside
I'd smile when I was crying
I had nothing but to a life to lose
Thought I had a lot to prove
In my life there's no denying
Goodbye to all my yesterdays
Goodbye, so long, I'm on my way
I had enough of crying, bleeding, sweating, dying
Hear me when I say, gonna live my life everyday
I'm gonna touch the sky, spread these wings and fly
I ain't here to play
Gonna live my life everyday
Change, everybody's feelin' strange
Never gonna be the same
Makes you wonder how the world keeps turning
Life, learning how to live my life
Learning how to pick my fights
Take my shots while I'm still burning
Goodbye to all those rainy nights
Goodbye, so long, I'm moving on
I've had enough of crying, bleeding, sweating, dying
Hear me when I say, gonna live my life everyday
I'm gonna touch the sky, spread these wings and fly
I ain't here to play
Gonna live my life everyday
Hit the gas, take the wheel, I just made myself a deal
There ain't nothing gonna get in my way
Everyday
(Guitar Solo)
Goodbye, so long, I'm moving on
I've had enough of crying, bleeding, sweating, dying
Hear me when I say, gonna live my life everyday
I'm gonna touch the sky and spread these wings and fly
I ain't here to play
Gonna live my life everyday
I... oh I... oh I...
Gonna live my life everyday
I... oh I... oh I...
Gonna live my life
Everyday"
