As I stand at the edge of the crossroads
I look off into the sunset and I see,
The mountains in the distant
Then my hopes fly back to me
When I was young, my mother told
Me to never fear the unknown
So as I stand at the brink of a
Life altering decision. I fear
Nothing and am ready for
The mountains in the distant
As the journey comes to an
End I remember all I have
Done and I reflect on my life
I regret nothing for I
Overcame
The mountains in the distant
