I see the joy, I see the pain
but today we gonna say
I am on my way
we look for meaning, don't agree
but today we're gonna scream
I am on my way
too certain, too doubtful
but for now, we gotta shout
I am on my way
same struggle, told separate
but for now we sing together
I am on my way
got to the bus stop so I jumped off
just got home from a day at work
as I rushed I just had one thought
must not be getting paid my worth
made my journey on the pavement
that sustained me early remaining sturdy
underneath my feet every since my day of birth
stay observant of what pass today for urgent
seeing the cars speeding across
the street, the faces worried
looking in the windows, when the wind blows
then it takes a turn
in the beginning they chasing money
but they end up chasing purpose
asking the wrong questions just to ask some
moving fast in any direction just to have one
problems that you can't face
putting band aids on at random
doing anything they can
not to attend to what they ran from
the cost of a son in a hospital strung up
loss of a loved on, lost in a humdrum
life, a wife that caught her husband
running off with younger woman
the problems you wanna run from
but easy answers leave you stranded
when the progress is undone
I see the joy, I see the pain
but today we gonna say
I am on my way
we look for meaning, don't agree
but today we're gonna scream
I am on my way
too certain, too doubtful
but for now, we gotta shout
I am on my way
same struggle, told separate
but for now we sing together
I am on my way
we all gotta look for meaning
when we're living through a hell
but the only meaning that you see
you give to it yourself
jewish, muslim, christian, hindu
send you on that trail
towards a system you can stick to
when everything else has failed
I guess good fortune seems to only go so far
cause of course we start
to think we're more important than we are
painting our own portraits
from the point of view that's all distorted
with the thought the world needs us
in order to revolve
like we're born with a path you have to follow
sacrificing half your life
finding that exact tomorrow
it never happens like that
as a matter of fact we all go
through the habit of adapting goals
when things go bad and fall through
it's like playing with dice
waiting till right numbers come up
hundred to one odds
but then we make up lies to cover it up
purpose is somewhat of a drug
but other stuff comes with the buzz
the journey is the purpose
nothing other than us
I see the joy, I see the pain
but today we gonna say
I am on my way
we look for meaning, don't agree
but today we're gonna scream
I am on my way
too certain, too doubtful
but for now, we gotta shout
I am on my way
same struggle, told separate
but for now we sing together
I am on my way
hey, hey, hey,
hey, hey, hey
on my way, say

on my way, say
