"it started like a stone
I grew it out but then I rested it
I found Sweet Road"
Ok so this is the only part of the song that I can even slightly shake a stick at. I think it is about maturing and growing a beard. Yes I know it sounds silly but think about the above lines in that context. The narrator's chin "started like a stone." In other words it is smooth like a stone and there is no beard. Then the person grew out his beard and "rested it" which I think means he kept it a certain length. Then he finds "sweet road" which I take to mean the future path, the right path, that he will follow for the rest of his life. Maybe it refers to the life of a wanderer on the "sweet road"? I'm not sure, but I do get a general feeling of growing up and maturing.
Side Note: the time signature in this song is very odd. I think it is mixed meter, or perhaps standard meter with some off-beat accents. It's hard for me to decode because very little of the song stays consistent rythmically.
