Two Roads in Life Lyrics

Someone once told me "There's two roads in life you face

Choose the right one son and keep a steady pace"

But I chose another road in this cluttered-up mess

I ain't found no trouble but I haven't found success

Success will lead you to the life you wanna live

Trouble's the long road that takes more than it gives

I've been stuck between them tryin' to understand

How the choices we make shape the fate of a man

Two roads in life which one will you take

One leads to glory the other's a mistake

I ain't found no trouble but success ain't clear

Still walkin' that path year after year

Success will give you the life you dream of

Trouble's the road that takes all but love

I took the hard road thinkin' I was strong

Thought I'd find my way but I've been wrong

I ain't hit no trouble but success won't stay

Seems like every mile it's just further away

I keep on movin' but the lessons are clear

The right road's the one that leads you near

Success will lead you to the life you wanna live

Trouble's the long road that takes more than it gives

I've been stuck between them tryin' to understand

How the choices we make shape the fate of a man

Two roads in life which one will you take

One leads to glory the other's a mistake

I ain't found no trouble but success ain't clear

Still walkin' that path year after year

Success will give you the life you dream of

Trouble's the road that takes all but love

Took me a while to see what he meant

The longer I traveled the more I spent

I thought success was around every bend

But the road I chose ain't led to an end

Now I get what my old man tried to say

That road of trouble don't lead the way

Success comes easy when you know your place

Trouble's the road where you're chasin' space

I've walked between them for far too long

Now I know where my heart belongs

Two roads in life which one will you take

One leads to glory the other's a mistake

I ain't found no trouble but success ain't clear

Still walkin' that path year after year

Success will give you the life you dream of

Trouble's the road that takes all but love

Now here I stand at the crossroads again

Lookin' for the right road to begin

But I know now with each turn that I make

There's two roads in life—it's yours to take
