歌词
It's not an easy road
A-many see the glamour and the glitter
So them think a bed of rose, me say
Who feels it knows, who-who-who
Lord, help me sustain these blows
I cry, it's not an easy road
A-many see the glamour and the glitter
So them think a bed of rose, me say
Who feels it knows, who-who-who
Lord help me sustain, why
[Verse 1]
From the minute of birth, you enter this earth
Obstacles inna your way to overcome first
Throughout every day, they seem to get worse
Oh my God, cast away this curse
Everybody a try fi make every end meet
Through every way they endeavor, Lord God you see it
No matter what the world may say on the street
Must haffi survive, won't accept defeat
Now I'm weary, tired and dreary
Got no time to waste, you better know now
[Chorus]
It's not an easy road
A-many see the glamour and the glitter
So them think a bed of rose, me say
Who feels it knows, who-who-who
Lord help me sustain these blows
I cry, it's not an easy road
A-many see the glamour and the glitter
So them think a bed of rose, me say
Who feels it knows, who-who-who
Lord help me sustain these blows
[Verse 2]
While you rise to see the sun, who you love to pull you down
Trying to discredit the works you have done
Some can't satisfy with the post of Allah
From the Scribes and Pharisees, you've got to stay wide
Hold up your head glancin' at both side
Waiting anticipatin' prayin' for you to slide
Righteousness prevails if Jah by my side
Deliver Jonah from the whale, never leave him to die
Help us all, Ababa Joni
Hold up my head and cry, I tell you now
[Chorus]
It's not an easy road
Oh no, it's not an easy road, haffi tell you
It's not an easy road
Oh no, it's not an easy road
[Verse 3]
Why, I've been travellin' morning with such an heavy load
Now it's noon and I cannot afford
To put down my burden alongside the road
Oh, I've got to hold it
Yeah, I've got to humble myself like a child
Upon mi face I've the got to put up a smile
A-make up my mind just to walk more mile
Oh God, I've got to, I've got to, because I know that
[Chorus]
It's not an easy road
A-many see the glamour and the glitter
So them think a bed of rose, me say
Who feels it knows, who-who-who
Lord help me sustain these blows
Once more, it's not an easy road
A-many see the glamour and the glitter
So them think a bed of rose, me say
Who feels it knows, who-who-who
Lord help me sustain
[Verse 4]
Why, from the minute of birth you enter this earth
Obstacles inna your way to overcome first
Throughout every day, they seem to get worse
Oh my God, cast away this curse
Everybody a try fi make every end meet
Through every way they endeavor, Lord God you see it
