Straighter Roads Lyrics

Straighter Roads - Julian Marley

...

Oh yeah

Whoa oh, whoa oh, whoa oh, whoa oh

Mhm yeah

Straighter roads are up ahead

Play it safe, no sudden breaks, ay

Straighter roads are up ahead, ooh

Soon there'll be no stop lights on red, ay

Soon there'll be no dark clouds ahead, ay

We're heading the direction for redemption

Keep your eyes open for the foes

Who don't wanna see no elevation

They'll do anything to keep you low

So they keep us

Spinning on the highway

Skidding down an icy road

Gotta stay calm to gain control

'Cause

Accidents are plenty, huh

Lanes are never empty, ohh

Well at least they're moving slow

In a twinkle of an eye

You might be surprised

And when you least expect

Opportunities arise

For you to flourish and shine

And make way for others

Ay, the more we put in

Is the more we get out of life

So no giving up

Straighter roads are up ahead, ah

Play it safe, no sudden breaks, no no

Straighter roads are up ahead, ooh

Soon there'll be no stop lights on red, ay

Soon there'll be no dark clouds ahead

Pressures of the world wants you to break down

It's a shake down

Never keep a problem on your head

No dread, no dread

What happened to the people's declaration?

And the freedom fighters who have bled?

Well

Their words forever echo

Bidding us to never let go, whoa

Of our dignity and thoughts

With the will to survive against all odds

Listen one and all

So, rekindle your hopes of victory

So, so, so

Straighter roads are up ahead

You're gonna play it safe

No sudden breaks, no no no no

Straighter roads are up ahead, oh

Soon there'll be no stop lights on red

Straighter roads, (are up ahead) let me go

You play it safe, (no sudden breaks) oh yeah

Straighter roads are up ahead, yeah

Soon there'll be no stop lights on red, ay

Soon there'll be no dark clouds ahead

Straighter roads (there'll be no stop lights on red)

Gotta let me go

Straighter roads ahead

(Soon there'll be no dark clouds ahead)

Free me up
