Dieser Weg Lyrics in English Xavier Naidoo

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Dieser Weg by Xavier Naidoo from German to English.
So I walked down this street
And the street led to me
The song that you sang on the last evening
Now played inside me
Just a few steps and then I was there
With the key to this door
This path will not be an easy one
This path will be rocky and hard
You won't agree with many
But this life offers so much more
It was just a brief moment
For a moment, I wasn't there
After that, I took a small step
And then it became clear to me
This path will not be an easy one
This path will be rocky and hard
You won't agree with many
But this life offers so much more
Bridge
Some will kick you
Some will love you
Bridge
Some will sacrifice themselves for you
Some will bless you
Don't set your sail
Bridge
When the wind stirs up the sea
Some will kick you
Some will love you
Bridge
Some will sacrifice themselves for you
Some will bless you
Don't set your sail
Bridge
When the wind stirs up the sea
This path will not be an easy one
This path will be rocky and hard
You won't agree with many
But this life offers so much more
This path will not be an easy one
This path will be rocky and hard
You won't agree with many
But this life offers so much more
This path will not be an easy one
This path will be rocky and hard
You won't agree with many
But this life offers so much more
Outro
This path
This path is rocky and hard
You won't agree with many
But this life offers so much more
This path
This path

SONG MEANING

Imagine setting off on a long hike toward your dreams, knowing the path ahead will be full of rocks, steep climbs, and sudden storms. That is exactly the feeling Xavier Naidoo captures in "Dieser Weg." The singer looks back at a decisive moment when a familiar song echoes inside him like a compass, handing him the metaphorical key to a new door. From the first step he understands: this journey will not be easy, agreement with others will be rare, yet life holds far more than comfort and consensus.

Naidoo then zooms out to show the people we meet on our way. Some will push you down, others will lift you up, a few may even sacrifice themselves for your sake, and some will bless you quietly from the sidelines. His advice is simple and powerful: do not hoist your sail when the sea is raging—that is, choose your battles and wait for the right winds. The repeated chorus drives home the message of perseverance; the rocky road is unavoidable, but the rewards of staying true to yourself are richer than you can imagine.
