Lyrics

I'll make sure to call you
When I make it
And after all they're meant to take it
Cho
I'll be there for sure
Don't worry
An me say bam, bam, bam, ba-bam
It's not an easy road
A many see the glamour and the glitter
So dem tink a bed a rose
Mi say
Who feels it knows, ooh
Lord help me sustain these blows
I cry
It's not an easy road
A many see the glamour and the glitter
So dem tink a bed a rose
Mi say
Who feels it knows, ooh
Lord help we sustain, why
From di minute of birth
Yuh enter dis Earth
Obstacles deh inna yuh 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 anyway that dem endeavor
Lawd god you see it
No matter wah di world may say outta street
Must haffi survive, won't accept defeat
Now I'm weary, tired and dreary
Got no time to waste
You better know dat
It's not an easy road
A many see the glamour and the glitter
So dem tink a bed a rose
Mi say
Who feels it knows, ooh
Lord help me sustain these blows
I cry
It's not an easy road
A many see the glamour and the glitter
So dem tink a bed a rose
Mi say
Who feels it knows, ooh
Lord help we sustain these blows
By you rise to see di sun
Who you love a pull you dung
Trying to discredit the works you have done
Some can't satisfy with the post of ally
From the Scribes and Pharisees
You've got to stay wide
Wol up mi head glancing at both side
A wait, anticipate, pray fi yuh slide
Righteousness prevails if Jah by my side
Deliver Jonah from the whale
Nuh leave him to die
Help us all Ababajoni
Hold up my head and cry
I tell you now
It's not an easy road
Oh no, it's not an easy road
A did tell you
It's not an easy road
Oh no
It's not an easy road
Why
I've been traveling mawnin
Wid such an heavy load
Now it's noon and I cannot afford
To put down my burden longside di road
Oh, I've got to hold it, yeah
I've got to humble myself
Like a child
Upon mi face I've got to put up a smile
A make up me mind just to walk more mile
Oh God Ive got to
I've got to
Because I know that
It's not an easy road
A many see the glamour and the glitter
So dem tink a bed a rose
Mi say
Who feels it knows, ooh
Lord help we sustain these blows
Once more
It's not an easy road
A many see the glamour and the glitter
So dem tink a bed a rose
Mi say
Who feels it knows, ooh
Lord help we sustain, why
From di minute of birth
Yuh enter dis Earth
Obstacles inna yuh 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 anyway that dem endeavor
Lawd god you see it
No matter wah di world may say outta street
