Not an easy road

It's not an easy road
many see di glamour an di glitter
so them think a bed of rose, me say
who feels it knows, ooh
Lord help me sustain these blows
From the minute of birth you enter this earth
Obstacles in your way to overcome first
Throughout every day they seem to get worse
Oh my god cast away this curse
Everybody ah trying to make end meet
Through every way they endeavor
Lord caan you see it?
No matter what di world may say on da street
Must haffi survive, won't accept defeat
Now I'm wary, tired and dreary
Got no time to waste
You bettah know now
[hook] x2
By you rise to see the sun
Who you love a pull you down
Trying to discredit the works you have done
Some can't satisfy with the past of ally
From the Scribes and Pharisees
You've got to stay wide
Hold up your head glancing at both side
Waiting anticipating praying for you to slide
Righteouness prevails with Jah by my side
Deliver Jonah from the whale
Never leave him to die
Help us all Abbaba Joni
Hold up my head and cry
[hook] x2
I've been travelling all morning
With such a heavy load
Now it's noon and I cannot afford
To put down this burden alongside the road
I've got to hold it,
I've got to humble myself like a child
Upon my face I've the got to put up a smile
Make up my mind just to walk more miles
Oh, God I've got, I've got to...
Because I know that
[hook] x2
