Findin' My Way Yves Stilmant © 2025
[Verse 1]
I got a hand-me-down truck and a restless heart
Dust on my boots and a dream to start
She smiled at me at the county fair
Now I'm learnin' fast how much I care
Friday night lights and a gas-station stop
Talkin' 'bout life in the parkin' lot
Skippin' stones down by Miller's Creek
Writin' her name on the old pine seat
These roads ain't mapped, and I ain't sure
But I ain't waitin' on a locked front door
[Chorus]
I'm makin' my own way, one mile at a time
With a dream in my chest and a hill to climb
Got a horse that bucks, and a heart that tries
Fallin' down, gettin' up, reachin' for the sky
Ain't got it all, but that's okay
I'm just a kid... makin' my own way
[Verse 2]
First kiss under that old oak tree
Didn't go smooth, but it sure felt free
Fixed up Dad's '89 last spring
Now she runs, and she's my favorite thing
Rode a wild horse at Uncle Joe's
Fell flat twice, then found my flow
Ain't about bein' the best around
It's how you get up when you hit the ground
Every bruise, every laugh, every tear
Buildin' stories year by year
[Chorus]
I'm makin' my own way, one mile at a time
With a dream in my chest and a hill to climb
Got a horse that bucks, and a heart that tries
Fallin' down, gettin' up, reachin' for the sky
Ain't got it all, but that's okay
I'm just a kid... makin' my own way

[Bridge]
Mama says, "Son, take your time"
But I hear freedom in that engine whine
I ain't waitin' for the perfect sign
I'll ride this trail, rain or shine
[Final Chorus]
I'm makin' my own way, one mile at a time
With a dream in my chest and a hill to climb
Got a horse that bucks, and a heart that tries
Fallin' down, gettin' up, reachin' for the sky
Ain't got it all, but that's okay
I'm just a kid... makin' my own way
[Outro]
Yeah, I'm just a kid...
Findin' my way
