It's not an easy road

Many see the glamor and the glitter

And think it's a bed of rose

Who feels it, knows

Lord, help me sustain these blows It's not an easy road

Many see the glamor and the glitter

And think it's a bed of rose

Who feels it, knows

Lord, help me sustain these blows From the minute of birth, you enter this earth

Obstacles in your way to overcome first

Throughout everyday, they seem to get worse

Oh, my God, cast away this curse Everybody is trying to make ends meet

Through every way the endeavor

Lord, God, You see it

No matter what the world may say on the street

Must have to survive, won't accept defeat

Now I'm weary, tired and dreary

Got no time to waste, you know me It's not an easy road

Many see the glamor and the glitter

And think it's a bed of rose

Who feels it, knows

Lord, help me sustain these blows By You rise to see the sun

Who You love, a pull You down

Trying to discredit the works You have done

Some can't satisfy with the past of ally

From the Scribes and Pharisees You've got to stay wide

Hold up Your head glancing on both side

Waiting, anticipating, praying for You to slide

Righteousness prevails with Jah by my side Deliver Jonah from the whale

Never leave him to die

Help us all Abbaba Joni

Hold up my head and cry It's not an easy road

Many see the glamor and the glitter

And think it's a bed of rose

Who feels it, knows

Lord, help me sustain these blows I've been traveling all morning

With such a heavy load

Now it's noon and I cannot afford

To put down this burden alongside the road I've got to hold it

Got to humble myself like a child

Upon my face, I've the got to put on a smile

Make up my mind just to walk more miles Because I know that it's not an easy road

Many see the glamor and the glitter

And think it's a bed of rose

Who feels it, knows

Lord, help me sustain these blows
