I know this life in the world

Is not a perfect heaven's pearl

I know the bright youth we embrace

Will someday turn and lose its grace

And I know this love I feel

Is only for you, pure and real

Though reality’s not as sweet as dreams

Sometimes I fall, sometimes I want to scream

Life is about the journey we take

Not just the goals we try to make

Though it’s filled with scars, filled with pain

I keep holding on, learning through the strain

I know a simple life we try

Or grandeur shining in the sky

I know the stories that we write

Aren’t always what we think is right

Yet still, I hold onto belief

There’s meaning beyond all this grief

Life is about the journey we take

Not just the goals we try to make

Though it’s filled with scars, filled with pain

I keep holding on, learning through the strain

Life is about the journey we take

Not just the goals we try to make

Though it’s filled with scars, filled with pain

I keep holding on, learning through the strain
