In Your Soul

Ever since I was a little kid

I have always thought I could run faster than the wind

Stare up to the sky with open spaces

I could live and die, well, man, you can't find that in no book

I'd never find that in no book

Someone will drag you down and try to knock you under

Hey, Mama said with her words of wonder

"Don't matter 'cause, 'cause it's in your soul"

I have always felt that I had to prove it to myself

No salvation from the firin' line

A million dreams won't set you free

God, I know there's something trapped in me

There's no refuge from the ride

No shelter ever saved a man his pride

Give you pain and never feed your hunger

I won't close my eyes when it rains and thunders

Don't matter 'cause, 'cause it's in your soul

And when the night is overcome

And I been racin' down a road that's got no trace

No face

If I could live by the words I've sung

We'll carry all the choices I made, I swear

I swear I'll be there

Hey, mister, don't shadowbox with me 'cause

I don't wanna someday be an old man cursin' what I might've been

Now I realize what I see, that the wind was never chasin' me

And I don't feel so alone

I can close my eyes, I'm goin' home

Behind the clouds the sun is shinin'

Some rain will fall, no use cryin'

Oh, no, not on me

Got a picture in my head I won't let go of

Young man runnin', in search of

Count your blessings 'cause it's in your soul

Oh, it's in your soul

Ooh, your soul

Oh, no

In your soul

Ever since I was a little kid

I have always thought, a young man runnin'

Kid runnin', runnin' and
