I wrote this blog shortly after giving up law enforcement to pursue a career in writing. Had I only known the success I would have, I would not have worried so much in the beginning.

I know following this writing career is foolish. I understand that it will be tougher before it gets better. I understand I will be judged by lesser men that lack the conviction to follow their dreams. These men hide under the pedestal of mediocrity that I will stand above. I have removed the safety net of failure so that success is my only option.

I will never wake up and wonder, will I be killed at work today? I will never again have lesser men question a decision that they cannot ever comprehend... This is my oath, this is my song.



Like the pine trees linin the windin road
Ive got a name, Ive got a name
Like the singin bird and the croakin toad
Ive got a name, Ive got a name
And I carry it with me like my daddy did
But Im livin the dream that he kept hid
Movin me down the highway
Rollin me down the highway
Movin ahead so life wont pass me by

Like the north wind whistlin down the sky
Ive got a song, Ive got a song
Like the whippoorwill and the babys cry
Ive got a song, Ive got a song
And I carry it with me and I sing it loud
If it gets me nowhere, Ill go there proud
Movin me down the highway
Rollin me down the highway
Movin ahead so life wont pass me by

And Im gonna go there free
Like the fool I am and Ill always be
Ive got a dream, Ive got a dream
They can change their minds but they cant change me
Ive got a dream, Ive got a dream
Oh, I know I could share it if you want me to
If youre going my way, Ill go with you
Movin me down the highway
Rollin me down the highway
Movin ahead so life wont pass me by
