Lyrics
[Intro]
(Instrumental Solo)
[Verse 1]
Backpack slung, chasing a better fate
Textbooks cracked, grindin' 'til my eyes ache
Clock in late to a dead-end shift
No time to laugh with the crew I used to lift
Pencils breakin', test scores weighin' on my chest
Advisor’s voice: "That diploma? You ain’t passin' the test"
[Chorus]
It’s just a fork in the road
Two paths stretch, but I don’t know which way to go
Left or right, the choice cuts to the bone
Buryin' my head, tryin' to lighten the load
Yeah, just remember, it’s only a fork in the road
[Verse 2]
Heart hammerin' when she walked through the door
My brain screamed "finally, I found the one I adore"
Dates and dreams, we mapped out every year
'Til she said "I met someone" and vanished from here
[Chorus]
It’s just a fork in the road
Two paths stretch, but I don’t know which way to go
Left or right, the choice cuts to the bone
Buryin' my head, tryin' to lighten the load
Yeah, just remember, it’s only a fork in the road
[Verse 3]
Life hummed smooth, wife and kids by my side
Grinded daily to keep our world alive
No clouds in sight, thought I’d locked down the prize
'Til the boss said "sorry" and tossed me to the unemployment line
[Chorus]
It’s just a fork in the road
Two paths stretch, but I don’t know which way to go
Left or right, the choice cuts to the bone
Buryin' my head, tryin' to lighten the load
Yeah, just remember, it’s only a fork in the road
[Outro]
It’s just a fork in the road
Two paths stretch, but I don’t know which way to go
Left or right, the choice cuts to the bone
Buryin' my head, tryin' to lighten the load
Yeah, just remember, it’s only a fork in the road
