I got a long way to go

Too many times i've been mistaken

Fallen behind every step i've taken

Back stuck at the starting line

Wonderin now if the fights worth fighting

I don't even know from what I'm hiding


When I don't have the strength

I can hear my daddy say to me again


I walked the walk

I talked the talk

I watched em all fall to their knees

Cuz there ain't nowhere to run when you're facing destiny

Tear down the walls

Tear down the sky

Don't let em chain you to the ground

You'll be out here standing on your own

When I'm not around


I miss him every day

Cuz he showed me which way the lines were drawn

He told me how to tell right from wrong

No he wasn't a perfect man

And he paid the price for his decisions

lived and died by his convictions


When I don't have the strength

I can hear my daddy say to me again


I walked the walk

I talked the talk

I watched em all fall to their knees

Cuz there ain't nowhere to run when you're facing destiny

Tear down the walls

Tear down the sky

Don't let em chain you to the ground

You'll be out here standing on your own

When I'm not around


When I don't have the strength

I can hear my daddy say to me again

I walked the walk

I talked the talk

I watched em all fall to their knees

Cuz there ain't nowhere to run when you're facing destiny

Tear down the walls

Tear down the sky

Don't let em chain you to the ground

You'll be out here standing on your own

When I'm not around
