Footsteps
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You're old enough to know
Young enough to find out
Dreamer's education
Radio made and TV raised
But will you live up to expectation
Your father's shirt don't fit you
and the future's got a claim on me
I got a license to run my race
I need space to breath
Cause I got a dream
I'll follow (following in my footsteps)
The tracks of my soul
I'll follow (following in my footsteps)
The tracks of my soul
He wear that sidewalk scar
Somewhere in a backseat
I heard the fascination
Got a pocketful of promises I'm going to test
Once you catch a dream can you settle for less
No has to tell you no
Like a ghost writer in you soul
You know what it's like to be young
You got your reasons there's a dream, a road
I'll follow
I got a dream I'll follow
The tracks of my soul
I'll follow the tracks of my soul
