Fork In the Road
song and Lyrics copy of my post from Dec 4th, 2024
I wrote this song 25 years+ ago While trying to help unionize a sister aluminum plant while I was a in the steelworker’s union.
If you are new to One Soul`s Journey, my voice is affected by my medical condition.
Lyrics Below 👇🏼
When you come upon the fork in the road
With no signs to guide your way
Follow the dreams within your heart
Don`t let fear have its say
Cause they may not take from you now
But in what they don`t give
Are the boundaries they will set
For how you must live
(R) *So, stand with each other
And join today
Let them know that you`ll be heard
They can`t scare you away*
In this land there`s Democracy
We fought to be free
For the people, by the people
Isn`t that our creed
Cause when you're in a Union
The same principles apply
We`re taking care of one another
And we do it with pride
I`ll keep my nose to the ground, for them
And bust my back all day
But medical and retirement
Should be there as I age
(R) *So, stand with each other
And join today
Let them know that you`ll be heard
They can`t scare you away*
They`ll tell you, you don`t need one
And you`re better off without
They`ll threaten and intimidate
Trying to keep you out
But life can be a mirror
It reflects your soul inside
And I wonder if they`ll question
What you stood for, when you die
(R) *So, stand with each other
And join today
Let them know that you`ll be heard
They can`t scare you away*
No, They Can`t scare you away
