Long Road

(intro)

(verse 1)

nuff man a dead over drugs and crime

(chorus)

nuff already gone but mi decide fi gwaan

some a rise some a fall

(verse 2)
hey no looking back got no time to stop
never sell my soul to no money got
if dem send dem threat and dem set dem trap
remain conscious mi nah tek no nap
no matter how dem grudge me no matter how dem chat
I will always give thanks cause I know what I got
while some outa road me see dem a gwaan like a bat
dem want soup mi out and nyam out mi pot

(chorus)
its a long roadd

nuff already gone but mi decide fi gwaan

some a rise some a fall mi nah go back gainst di wall
long road

nuff already gone but mi decide fi gwaan
long road
no easy at all
some a rise some a fall

(verse 3)

its a perilous time unno betta believe me
aks mi bout mi faith I will always keep it
to foot to the ground dem cyaan get me weary
back up satan seh you cyaan come near me

(hook)
