Story behind the song

I was feeling weird about being 49 years of age, wondering if I still had enough left to follow my dream of playing music.  Then I realized that all I really need to do is trust the Lord, as He provides all things that are good.

Lyrics

I never thought I'd ever be a man like me
Growing old, dreams on hold, my reality
Is it too late to leave the gate, breaking free?

Time is not on my side any more, oh no
It's been a long bumpy ride so far, that's for sure
I've got nothin, nothin to hide
And not much to show

Can't worry about the little things now, 
It's too late for that
I'm not lookin' for the whys but the hows,
And the place where I'm at
It's one of life's big mysteries,
Loving a man like me

I try to do the best that I can
and hope it's enough
I hear Your word and try to obey,
but sometime's it's tough
You provide everything that I need 
and all that I want

(Bridge)
It's amazing how Your favor could rest
on a man like me
Sometimes I give a lot less than my best
but You never leave
I'll follow you, I won't second guess,
You got the stuff that I need
