Shontelle - Life Is Not an Easy Road lyrics

Life is not an easy road
A true you just a struggle
With your heavy load
I know it seems you lose
The battle more and more
Life is not an easy road
You have to play your part and take control
Don't you ever ease up, never give up
Don't let go

Hopeless youths them out inna the street
And them no have no job
So just to win they have to cheat
Tell me why so many see it and don't speak
And why they'll never find a
Peaceful home they can retreat
And them can find no food to eat
And where you lay your head them
Have a bed of concrete
And your momma, she ah cry when she ah see it
It's not a revolution just a
Cycle that repeats 'cause

Life is not an easy road
A true you just a struggle
With your heavy load
I know it seems you lose
The battle more and more
Life is not an easy road
You have to play your part and take control
Don't you ever ease up, never give up
Don't let go

See the sunshine will come one day
And prejudice and inequality will fade away
Man will not judge man but he will say
It's time to love my neighbor as
My brother and not hate
And the world will unite as one
And governments eliminate all
Chemicals and bombs
We will no longer have to run
The uprising has only just begun
So hear me song

Life is not an easy road
A true you just a struggle
With your heavy load
I know it seems you lose
The battle more and more
Life is not an easy road
You have to play your part and take control
Don't you ever ease up, never give up
Don't let go

I said don't let go, I said don't let go
If you know, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
No life is not an easy road
Say you don't let go
Say you don't let go, no, no, no, no, no
You see them likkle youth a
Cry them have cold, cold feet
Them a prostitute them life and
So them world get defeat
Them politicians try fi take
Your life you see
But just trust you will survive
And keep your dignity
Never mind how them a treat you
Never mind what them a say
Keep you eyes pon tomorrow
But you live for today you stop, you drop
You roll to save your soul
You never let them take it away, sing

Life is not an easy road
A true you just a struggle
With your heavy load
I know it seems you lose
The battle more and more
Life is not an easy road
You have to play your part and take control
Don't you ever ease up, never give up
Don't let go life is not an easy road
A true you just a struggle
With your heavy load
I know it seems you lose
The battle more and more
Life is not an easy road
You have to play your part and take control
Don't you ever ease up, never give up
Don't let go
