In the path
Mark Cloutier 1972 (Kaneohe)
In the path
I follow its way
And never deviate
I neither go right or left
But straight ahead
Never looking back
At what is left
But I return again
To follow its end
And it is endless in cause
Between right and wrong
Where there is no evil
But only the good
Of the deception of friends
Is they are your
Only enemies in the end
With all to fall
In the direction
Of a lesson learned
From the mistakes made
From the past
As the future
Comes on fast
