Lyrics:
I got a long way to go
Too many times I've been mistaken
Fallen behind every step I've taken
Back, stuck at the startin' line
Wonderin' now if the fights worth fightin'
I don't even know from what I'm hiding

When I don't have the strength
I can hear my daddy say to me again

I walked the walk
I talked the talk
I watched 'em all fall to their knees
Cuz there ain't nowhere to run
When you're facing destiny
Tear down the walls, tear down the sky
Don't let 'em chain you to the ground
You'll be out here standin' on your own
When I'm not around
When I'm not around

I miss him everyday
Cuz he showed me which way the lines were drawn
He told me how to tell right from wrong
No, he wasn't a perfect man
And he paid the price for his decisions
Lived and died by his convictions

When I don't have the strength
I can hear my daddy say to me again

I walked the walk
I talked the talk
I watched 'em all fall to their knees
Cuz there ain't nowhere to run
When you're facing destiny
Tear down the walls, tear down the sky
Don't let 'em chain you to the ground
You'll be out here standin' on your own
When I'm not around
When I'm not around
When I'm not around

When I don't have the strength
I can hear my daddy say to me again

I walked the walk
I talked the talk
I watched 'em all fall to their knees
Cuz there ain't nowhere to run
When you're facing destiny
Tear down the walls, tear down the sky
Don't let 'em chain you to the ground
You'll be out here standin' on your own
When I'm not around
When I'm not around
When I'm not around
When I'm not around
