Long Way Home

I'm just a long, long way from home I'm just a long, long way from home Lord knows I ain't a saint My folks ain't the ones to blame I ain't chose the path I roam And it's a long way home I'm tired of the chains That keep holding me down And I'm stuck in the fog That I just can't see around My feet grow weary With these miles on the road But I got my brother to help me carry the load Well, I've been feeling all alone In this world out far And I've been wrapped in imitations For the love, I sought Through the risings of the water And the nights of endless black I know my sister's always got my back And it's a long, long way from home I'm just a long, long way from home Lord knows I ain't a saint My folks ain't the ones to blame I ain't chose the path I roam And it's a long way home So we walk along the road That we did not plan We boarded on the ships To a promised land From the time we had together To the loathsome catacomb We don't walk it on our own And it's a long way home Well it's a long, long way from home I'm just a long, long way from home Lord knows I ain't a saint My folks ain't the ones to blame I ain't chose the path I roam And it's a long way home We don't walk it on our own And it's a long way home
