    The title of the song is "Poor Boy" by Matt Kearney

    Like a breath of fresh air and the wind at my back
    Toe to heel with strong strides taking miles off the map
    In this journey called life where I’ve walked so far
    Under the heat of your sun and the shine of your stars
    Step by step I’ve crept, I’ve crawled, and I’ve run
    Felt the palm of your hand and the barrel of death’s gun
    I ran for my life stood strong through strife
    From a miscarried life to waiting for my wife like
    I heard it sung a thousand strong all night long
    Heard heaven’s bell going something long, it’s like
    I’ve been there in total despair
    Now I’ve tasted and I’ve touched
    A breath of fresh air

    ‘Cause I do live and I hope and pray
    For something better and brighter today
    For something there for something there

    CHORUS:
    ‘Cause I was just a poor boy living in a poor world
    But you gave me more love that set me free
    ‘Cause I was just a poor boy living in a poor world
    But you have gave me more love that set me free

    Like road trips on open roads
    Windows down sun setting and fresh new clothes
    Shoes off so you can stop reflect on all these paths unfolding
    With these staffs that are pulling in this world so controlling
    It’s not always best to take the interstate
    Sometimes the most is on the windy coast way
    ‘Cause wide is the path pulling astray
    Narrow is the truth in these days
    But all the while I hear a still small voice say
    You climbed the cliffs rocked the desert on your very own
    Swam the seas, sang the songs with the sweetest tones
    The beaches you’ve combed, moons you’ve roamed the love you’ve shown
    But all the while a voice calls you home

    ‘Cause I do live and I hope and pray
    For something better and brighter today
    For something there for something there

    CHORUS
