I met a man along the road And this he said to me You don't need a heavy load If you wanna be free Well his name it now escapes me But I know he's very wise And I read it in his future You can see it in his eyes I said to him now explain What I was supposed to do He shook his head and he said It's really up to you It's really up to you Yes it's up to you You know it's up to you You know it's up to you Up to you electric guitar solo electric guitar solo The route you take from here It's not a microphone You gotta do it on your own Or how you gonna learn? My hopes are getting higher My feet are on the floor Those who said I couldn't do it They won't see me no more
