I drew the paths that I should walk,
Through countless barriers on the way,
The ideas mine were not in vogue,
They were not ideas of the day.
‘Til now I have survived the fears,
Of loving friends who had in mind,
The wellness of my well being,
All their doubts were meant to be kind.
But I have walked the paths alone,
My final stop nearly arrived,
My alien ways have cost me dear,
For some loved ones have been deprived.

Through countless barriers on the way,

‘Til now I have survived the fears,
Of loving friends who had in mind,
The wellness of my well being,
All their doubts were meant to be kind.
But I have walked the paths alone,
My final stop nearly arrived,
My alien ways have cost me dear,
For some loved ones have been deprived.
