Song Title: Long Hard Road

Lyrics:

Verse 1

I watched the sun come up over the ocean today
And i felt the sand moving  underneath my feet
I felt the ocean spray while watched the seagulls overhead
I guess there showing me blue sky's lay ahead

Chorus  

And I know how it feels to live in the summer heat
It’s been a long hard road to get to easy street 
And don’t you go telling me what you think I should do
I’m not you
I've got my own way of thinking and and I don’t care if you approve 
it's my point of view

Verse 2

  That old light house throws out memories of my youth
and the dreams I had and what I thought was true

But now I live each day thankful of where I've been
and now I realize winning comes from within

Chorus

And I know how it feels to live in the summer heat 
It’s been a long hard road to get to easy street 
 don’t you go telling me what you think I should do
I’m not you
I've got my own way of thinking and and I don’t care if you approve 
its my point of view

Bridge

I don't know why I'm always running from the truth
Well I guess I'm just a product of an ill spent youth

Chorus
And I know how it feels to live in the summer heat
It’s been a long hard road to get to easy street 
don’t go telling me what you think I should do
I’m not you
I've got my own way of thinking and and I don’t care if you approve 
it's my point of view
