I'm always out there thinking maybe
Could this be a big mistake?
Have I made the wrong decision?
Is this the right road to take?
I could have had a 9-5,
Or been in school just like my parents wanted,
But now I’m feeling so alive,
I found the sun shine I’m no longer wanting.

Chorus:
And I feel the fire burning deep within my soul,
Struggling for protection,
When I reach it, let me know!
And I feel I need some guidance,
But my heart won't let it show,
And although the road is frightening,
I’m gonna make it on my own!

Working late to earn my keeping,
Cause no one's gonna pay my way,
The night is cold I should be sleeping,
But I’m waiting for my morning train.
And I do this till I reach my goal,
Because no one's gonna do it for me,
And the night is young, but time is old,
And I’m gonna do this till I reach my glory.

Chorus:
And I feel the fire burning, deep within my soul,
Struggling for protection,
When I reach it, let me know!
And I feel I need some guidance,
But my heart won't let it show,
And although the road is frightening,
I’m gonna make it on my own!

Cause I’m losing friends and gaining foes,
What tomorrow’s bringing no one's sure,
And if I fail at least I know
I did it on,
I did it on my own!
