Looking back at the road so far The journey's left it's share of scars Mostly from leaving the narrow and straight Looking back it is clear to me That a man is more than the sum of his deeds And how you make good of this mess I've made Is a profound mystery Looking back you know You had to bring me through All that I was so afraid of Though I questioned the sky now I see why Had to walk the rocks to see the mountain view Looking back I see the lead of love Looking back I can finally see How failures bring humility (I'd rather have wisdom and pain) Brings me to my knees (Than be a comfortable old fool) Helps me see my need for thee
