"The Road"
words by Archie McLeod III
music by Peter Fokkema

Verse 1

Down every highway, Round every turn
Always something new; A lesson to be learned
Swimming against the river; Floating on an unending sea
Out here searching, Just trying to get to me

Some days feelin’ lonely, I just don’t fit in
I have to admit sometimes I don’t like the skin I’m in
But you play the cards you’re dealt and if you see it to the end
The darkness turns to light and the sun will shine again

Chorus

‘Cause the road less traveled is long
But the price to be free is worth the long trip home

Verse 2

There’s always some battle
There’s always some war
They say our cause is just-we don’t know what we’re fighting for
A slave to a dollar; you kill a brother with a smile
If that’s living a good life
I’ll just walk on for awhile.......

Chorus

‘Cause the road less traveled is long
But the price to be free is worth the long trip home

About ""The Road"":
This song is an internet colaboration between myself and a friend in the Netherlands. He had a very simple but catchy hook that he couldn't find a lyric to. I had some situations going on in my life at the time that created this brief lyrical story. This is a remix of that song. Peter, if you're out there I hope you like the changes to a great collaboration.
