Travelling down
The golden road,
I’ll be staying true to
That course.
There’s no looking back
To where I came from.
I’m heading
For a better life. Sometimes,
When I’m on the road,
The going’s easy
And the road hums.
At times,
The road is steep
With twists and turns.
It’s such a grind.

When the whirlwind blows,
It won’t sway me off course,
‘Cause my compass is set
To true north.
It guides me
Through the dark days,
Life’s maze.
I’ll stay on course.

I’m on my way down
The golden road
Through a land
Of glitter and gloss.
I’ve got my eyes wide open
So there’ll be no straying.

I’m on my way down
The golden road
Through a land
Of glitter and gloss.
I’ve got my eyes wide open
So there’ll be
No mistaking
The manufactured and the false.

Wiser now than before.
I’ve learnt life’s lessons.
I know the score.
I’m in control of my destiny.
I won’t let trouble
Get the best of me.

I’m on my way down
The golden road
Through a land
Of glitter and gloss.
I’ve got my eyes wide open
So there’ll be no straying.
I’m on my way down
The golden road
Through a land
Of glitter and gloss.
I’ve got my eyes wide open
So there’ll be
No mistaking
The manufactured and the false
