The song describes a man who has lived his life on his own terms and done things "his way" without regrets, facing challenges and doubts but standing tall through it all. He recounts traveling life's pathways and charting his own course at each step, taking what he had to take and doing what he felt he had to do without exemption. In the end, he asserts that a man has nothing if not himself, so it is important to truly speak one's mind and live according to one's own beliefs rather than following what others say.
