When I was just a boy, granddaddy sat me on his knee
He told me that he loved me and that we were family
We spoke about the world and all the possibilities
Then he held me in his arms, he said, Be what you want to beHe paved the way for me to follow
Uncharted terrain now had a lane
Its how I got overWhen I became a man, granddaddy said, Come, walk with me
He said, Being a man comes with responsibility
And always keep your word to the best of your ability"
When he looked me in my eyes he said, Its time to set you freeHe paved the way for me to follow
Uncharted terrain now had a lane
Its how I got overHe paved the way for me to follow
Uncharted terrain now had a lane
Its how I got overHe paved the way for me to follow
Uncharted terrain now had a name
It's how I got over
