Keep Walking I was told
Warned by travel agent
When leaving airport
At a tourist location
That many would approach me
But she did not get me ready for this
As I walked through a door
Here comes a crowd of people
With big smiles and pamphlets
Dressed as if working for airlines
Very deceiving to the eye my friend
With some even dressed as officers
Left me wondering are they real workers
Why all these little tables they have
To try and pick me up to carry me to
How could everyone be my car shuttle
It's me they say we got your name
While pointing to their name tags
Left me pondering is this another check point
Can I just walk past them
So I remember just keep Walking
I can see the outside doors
The light shining through
Letting me know this is the right direction to flee
Finally, getting out of the chaos
At the end of the drive
Was a guy with the biggest smile
Saying you made it
Now let's go to your place of rest
Real story but the meaning
I got out of this
Was a reminder to Keep Walking
Many deceivers to try and pull
One off the right path
But there is a true Shepherd
Leading to the End
For when one knows His voice
They shall follow for there is only one
