My Road

I'm looking down a long, lonely road
I don't know how long I've been on it
And i don't know how much longer it will be
before this road ends

I do know that along the way it will cross
I may not know which way i will will take
Both roads before me will have easy times 
as well as hard times.
Everyone knows you can't have one without the other

I don't know what will happen 
But then again who ever knows what will come
My opinion; I just want to go with the road.
Whatever happens on it, I will take in strides

If i fight what comes, I will never get anywhere
But if i go with the flow I won't be disappointed
I will always except the worse but i will always hope for the best
Take what you can and hold on tight
The small things are what i hold and keep dear to me

I'm looking down a long, lonely road
No matter what comes from it, I know I am ready for it
Because this is my road
