About the Artist
Lyrics
So hard to answer future's riddle When ahead is seeming so far behind So hard to laugh a child-like giggle When the tears start to torture my mind So hard to shed the life of before To let my soul automatically soar But I hit hard at the battle that's confronting me, yeah Knock down all the roadblocks a-stumbling me Throw off all the shackles that are binding me down Sew up the wounds of evolution And the now starts to get in my way So what if life's a revelation If the mind speaks of only today So real, the pain of growing in soul Of climbing up to reality's goal But I hit hard at the battle that's confronting me, yeah Knock down all the roadblocks a-stumbling me Throw off all the shackles that are binding me down Long promised road Trail starts at dawn, carries on to the season's ending Long promised road Flows to the source, gentle force, never ending, never ending So hard to lift the jeweled scepter When the weight turns a smile to a frown So hard to drink of passion nectar When the taste of life's holding me down So hard to plant the seed of reform To set my sights on defeating the storm So I hit hard at the battle that's confronting me, yeah Knock down all the roadblocks stumbling me Throw off all the shackles that are binding me down Oh yeah Hit hard at the battle that's confronting me, yeah Knock down all the roadblocks stumbling me Throw off all the shackles that are binding me down, whoo-yeah Hit hard at the battle that's confronting me, yeah Knock down all the roadblocks stumbling me, yeah Throw off all the shackles that are binding me down I'd love to see you I'd love to see you I'd love to see you I'd love to see you
