About Lonely Road of Faith

"Lonely Road of Faith" was the second released single from Kid Rock's 2001 album Cocky. Written in 1995, the song was released on the 2001 album Cocky. It received some minor attention on CMT, as the live version from CMT's Crossroads peaked at #2 on CMT Most Wanted Live and #17 on the CMT Top 20 Countdown. The MTV and VH1 Music Video was taken from Kid Rock's 2002 performance at the MTV USO special for troops stationed at Germany's Ramstein Air Base. The song was featured in two different WWE (then WWF) video packages when WCW's New World Order was sent by Vince McMahon to poison the WWF. The first video was a tribute to the history of the company. The second one mirrored the first video until the rap rock bridge and the video became scenes of New World Order's destruction. The song peaked at #15 on the Mainstream Rock Charts. An alternative version of the song appeared on Rock's 2010 EP Racing Father Time. It removed the rap rock bridge and had a Latino influence to it with a Spanish style gutair added.

Up and down that lonely road of faith
I have been there
Unprepared for the storms and the tides that rise
I've realized one thing, how much I love you
And it hurts to see, see you cryin'
I believe we can make it through the winds of change

God is great indeed
If you believe, in the everlife
Yeah we gotta
Make some sense of the piece that's not defined
And if you just hold on, I won't let ya fall
We can make it through the storms and the winds of change

Though I walk through the valley of darkness
I am not afraid
'Cause I know I'm not alone

And if the wind blows east, would you follow me
And if the wind blows north, would ya stay your course
And if the wind blows west, would ya second guess
And if it blows to the south, would you count me out
And if the sun don't shine, would you still be mine
And if the sky turns grey, would you walk away
Would you say I do, if I say I'll be
And walk this road through life with me
You know I love youuuuuu

On this lonely road of faith
On this lonely road of faith
