Lyrics
[Verse 1]
As long as there's life
Oh, yes, we know there is hope
We found a way to survive
We still a-travel the road
And we can always decide to find a way how to cope
The journey's long and it's wide
'Cause time is longer than rope
[Verse 2]
Certain things might drop on your nerves
And dem do you things that you just don't deserve
Go on, tell the world, a blessing over a curse
One day the last will be the first
(Oh) Full speed forward, you just can't reverse
Uplift yourself when dem expect the worst
Hear what me say inna the verse
It's time to leave, time to quench your spiritual thirst
[Verse 3]
Put down the trouble, then you walk away
You don't have to fight today
No, you not fi do it again, no, do it again
You do it from way back when now
[Verse 4]
Put down the trouble, then you walk away
You don't have to fight today
No, you not fi do it again, no, do it again
You do it from way back when now
[Verse 5]
Put down the trouble, back away from them
Trouble makin' people, take no time from them
New life, new chapter, new time and friend
You a-follow your instincts, you just can't pretend
A brand new start you will find again
No make nobody interrupt you this time again
One peace of mind, clear mind again
Everything incline again, now if we just shine again
[Verse 6]
Put down the trouble, then you walk away
You don't have to fight today
No, you not fi do it again, no, do it again
You do it from way back when now
[Verse 7]
Put down the trouble, then you walk away
You don't have to fight today
No, you not fi do it again, no, do it again
You do it from way back when now
[Verse 8]
Me no tell you protect this honor
A fi your life, you can do what you wanna
But if you draw fi the guns and the hammer
Next thing me know, you 'bout to draw fi the bammer, yeah
Take a check and sort out your grammar
Sentence not right, boy, you need a few comma
But if you don't stop talk and stammer
Then you fi talk in front of your honor, whoa
[Verse 9]
Put down the trouble, then you walk away
You don't have to fight today
No, you not fi do it again, no, do it again
You do it from way back when now
[Verse 10]
Put down the trouble, then you walk away
You don't have to fight today
No, you not fi do it again, no, do it again
You do it from way back when now
[Verse 11]
Certain things might drop on your nerves
And dem do you things that you just don't deserve
Go on, tell the world, a blessing over a curse
One day the last will be the first
(Oh) Full speed forward, you just can't reverse
Uplift yourself when dem expect the worst
Hear what me say inna the verse
It's time to leave, time to quench your spiritual thirst
[Verse 12]
Put down the trouble, then you walk away
You don't have to fight today
No, you not fi do it again, no, do it again
You do it from way back when now
[Verse 13]
Put down the trouble, then you walk away
You don't have to fight today
No, you not fi do it again, no, do it again
You do it from way back when now
[Verse 14]
As long as there's life
And yes, we know there is hope
We found a way to survive
We still a-travel the road
And we can always decide to find a way how to cope
The journey's long and it's wide
Because time is longer than rope
