Long Way (Extended)

This song is dedicated

To the youth worldwide

All my people in

Nigeria

Benin

Togo

Ghana

Senegal

Sierra Leone

I feel your pain

And I see your struggle

Take it away

Oooh dread

Im a rasta man from Africa

Ohh nati

im a rasta man

from Africa

Oh dread

See I’m a long way from home

I’m facing trials

Everyday ina mi life

Dem say

I got to cut off my locks

Just to survive

Dem say Rasta

Cant get a piece of the pie

See I’m a long way from home

I’m facing trials

Everyday ina mi life

Dem say

 I got to cut off my locks

Just to survive

Dem say Rasta

Cant get a piece of the pie

I’m a long way from home

I traveled 100 thousand miles

Like a dog chasing a bone

Remember back in the day

When I left home

Hugged my brother

 and Kabila

With a nappy Afro

It was me

my mother

and the love of my life

She said

 she will never ever live me alone

So we proceeded

To travel my road

2 months later

mama had to

head back home

She left me

On my feet

Standing alone

Moved to the nati

Moved in with Esco

Then I meesed up

got caught by 5.0

So I laid low

Switched towns

To Chicago

Now, I’m a long way from home

I’m facing trials

Everyday ina mi life

Dem say

 I got to cut off my locks

Just to survive

Dem say Rasta

Cant get a piece of the pie

See I’m a long way from home

I’m facing trials

Everyday ina mi life

Dem say

 I got to cut off my locks

Just to survive

Dem say Rasta

Cant get a piece of the pie

Man-tenant je voi ma Vie

Et c’est Clear

ce qe je vue

Je marche avec mon dieu

Et je boi de l’eau

Je pense plu pro founde

De Dan mon bateau

Meme sill fait chaud

Je pire empeu

Je no ve pas des cadeaux

Et tu peu prendre le gatuaux

Tous ce que je veux

Dans ma vie

Cest dieux

Et quand je suis veux

Ma plaÇe enhaue

Now you a long way from home

Everyday you just got to keep up the fight

you know you got to

where ever that you go

Now you a long way from home

Every day you just got to keep up the fight

You know your mother

Will always stand by your side

Where ever that you go

They will feel your vibe

I’m facing trials

Everyday ina mi life
