Your Wealth and the Road

The story

This one I sing with Nova, a whole life in three verses: a morning when the sky was wide, a valley where the choices collide, and a road that bends low toward the sunset. The title says wealth, but the song keeps pointing at the road. Freedom, belonging, purpose and love take turns walking beside you, never in the order you planned. At the end you turn around and see the footprints of everyone you held dear. The wealth was never what you carried; it was who walked with you.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Born on a morning when the sky was wide,
The road stretched forward, no map to guide.
With tiny steps, the world felt grand,
Freedom in the wind, belonging in a hand.

The days were long, the summers bright,
Each turn ahead a new delight.
No weight to carry, no cares to keep,
The road was a dream, and life ran deep.

[Chorus]
Your wealth and the road, where the stories unfold,
A path through the seasons, where the heart takes hold.
With each step you grow, and the meaning will show,
The journey and the road, the life you bestow.

[Verse 2]
Through the valley of youth, where choices collide,
Belonging is found, but freedom’s the guide.
You climb with hope, your purpose unclear,
Yet the road whispers, “Your time is near.”

A family calls, roots take their place,
The road narrows down, but love fills the space.
Your steps grow steady, the weight is shared,
Purpose in your stride, in the lives you’ve spared.

[Chorus]
Your wealth and the road, where the stories unfold,
A path through the seasons, where the heart takes hold.
With each step you grow, and the meaning will show,
The journey and the road, the life you bestow.

[Bridge]
As the years roll by, the road bends low,
The pace slows down, but the meaning grows.
Freedom returns, like a soft refrain,
Belonging in the love that still remains.

With the sun setting low, and the road’s end near,
You see the footprints of all you held dear.
The journey you walked was never alone,
Each step you took built a legacy of stone.

[Chorus]
Your wealth  and the road, where the stories unfold,
A path through the seasons, where the heart takes hold.
With each step you grow, and the meaning will show,
The journey and the road, the life you bestow.

[Outro]
So walk on, walk on, though the road may wind,
Through freedom, purpose, and love combined.
The journey and the road, where your soul will glow,
A story of a life only you can know.

[Chorus]
Your wealth  and the road, where the stories unfold,
A path through the seasons, where the heart takes hold.
With each step you grow, and the meaning will show,
The journey and the road, the life you bestow.

[Outro Epic]
So walk on, walk on, though the road may wind,
Through freedom, purpose, and love combined.
The journey and the road, where your soul will glow,
A story of a life only you can know.
