Journey of mine alone
I thought I was traveling on a beaten old road
which had seen many travellers, young and old
But it was the journey of my life alone
which only I could undertake on my own
I thought I met a devil on the road of strife
leading me astray through temptations
But he was the angel of my life
making me aware of my expectations
I thought I had mountains to climb steep
All the way uphill without any sleep
But they were the challenges for me to meet
To come victorious through the feat
I thought the rocks were to weary my sole
Beat them to submission into a sorry role
But they were the troubles of my soul
Which I had to overcome, to not take a toll
I thought the clouds came to rain down the cold
Make me freeze into a snow-covered mould
But they were the climax of my story
Bringing me the rainbows of glory
