In life, most people believe the goal is to reach the destination, but the journey is every bit, if not more, important. The experiences and "What you find on your way", are what make you the person you are. Every victory drives you on; every failure makes you more determined.
Sometimes, you will stray from the path and find yourself in unexpected places. Whether those places are good or bad, they all help to shape your life.
Stay true to what you believe in, don't sell out, and you'll keep moving in the right direction.
Maybe we shouldn't even think about the destination. Maybe life is all about how much you enjoy the journey, because even if you reach the destination, pretty soon you're going to be on the road again traveling to the next one.
lyrics
What You Find On Your Way
Don’t mind where you go
Or how long it takes to roll down the road
Time tells, years will show
In the folds around your eyes
Wild, young and restless days
Still into it but they made you pay
Mirror man laughing down
Gotta give him mean smile back
Hey, life is what you find on your way
What you find on your way
The same old boring songs
Try to teach you love in the radio
A skull shirt and 'Fuck it all'
Doesn’t make you Rock 'n' Roll
Get dirty hands while you dig too deep
Run detours and bust your feet
Well, time tells and year by year
By the ringing of your ears
Hey, life is what you find on your way
What you find on your way
What you find on your way
What you find on your way
Time tells, years will show
In the folds around your eyes
Hey, life is what you find on your way
It don’t matter how long it takes
What you find on your way
Live and learn from all mistakes
What you find on your way
It don’t matter how much you know
What you find on your way
Just keep walking down your road
What you find on your way
It don’t matter how long it takes
What you find on your way
Live and learn from all mistakes
What you find on your way
It don’t matter how much you know
What you find on your way
Just keep walking down your road
