Rocky Road

The rain is fallin' and the weather is cold
Don't know which way to go but I continue to roll
The rainfall is really takin' a toll
On my mind and my body and on my spirit and soul

The rain's fallin' but I'm keepin' a hold
On the life 'cause I know that I could spin outta control
I know, know, I know, know
I know this is gonna be one rocky road

Uhh, what part of the voyage is this?
Friendship and business don't mix
With anyone else it's just business
With friends I'm personally pissed

Is this a curse or a gift?
Guess I was blessed with my wish
Don't tell me that you feel my pain
Then I sayin it's best that we switch

You take the fortune and fame
And see if it's what you expected
Take the money and change
And be careful where you invest it

Just take the test and don't stress it
You get stopped by a detective
Tryin' to get in your personal life
Gotta do your best to protect it

The answer rest in the message
When I go, I go in a blaze
But it wont be no captain savin'
'Cause where I'm goin' youre saved

Tryin' to rain down on my parade
Till that umbrella get raised
They thinkin' that they can read me
When they ain't no where my page

Tryin' to keep a smile on my face
Even at times when I engage
In business conversations
With people I know are snakes

If life is a piece of cake
Part of the icin' is venom
Spend a life time tryin' to bring me down
But I just ain't gonna let 'em, you better tell em

The rain is fallin' and the weather is cold
Don't know which way to go but I continue to roll
The rainfall is really takin' a toll
On my mind and my body and on my spirit and soul

The rain's fallin' but I'm keepin' a hold
On the life 'cause I know that I could spin outta control
I know, know, I know, know
I know this is gonna be one rocky road

Uhh, I'm back and forth and I'm pacin'
Bein' more patient than patience
Tryin' to wait for the good news to show up
But I'm unfortunately waitin'

Gotta be group participation
If it's in the course that we makin'
I was unfortunately done
She was unfortunately fakin'

But the only sexual spark
Is the spark he got for the doe'
They say till death do us part
But that part is where she says no

There are too many emotions
Emotions like pins and needles
Actin' like emotions are evil
Like showin' love is illegal

I thought that it was a eagle
But I seen this vulture before
He thinks this is were I'll stop
'Cause he sees that I'm walkin' slow

But no, I think you should know
That soon as I get where I go
You'll remember the fact
That I had a purpose fo'sho

I hope you know where youre goin'
I hope you know that today
On the side of the road
You gon' see a whole lotta snakes

When the bad weather comes
To rain down on your parade
Just raise up your umbrella
And try to keep goin' straight

The rain is fallin' and the weather is cold
Don't know which way to go but I continue to roll
The rainfall is really takin' a toll
On my mind and my body and on my spirit and soul

The rain's fallin' but I'm keepin' a hold
On the life 'cause I know that I could spin outta control
I know, know, I know, know
I know this is gonna be one rocky road

This road has many curves
Many bumps and potholes
It can even take you through a loop
If you ain't got your s*** together

Unpredictable weather could leave you
Dehydrated, frost bitten, washed away, or either
Ran over by heavy traffic, watch where you roam
'Cause it's a challenge just tryin' to make it home

But still I walk, I keep my pace, I keep my stride
Would hitch hike but there's too much pride
I must find a narrow path so I can walk and laugh out loud
Cry and sing without bein' judged by the crowd

Maybe some day I could just fly away
But for now I'll just beat my feet
And get there someway somehow

And mile, after mile, after mile I'll smile
Keepin' my head up even though rains pourin' down
And the road gets rough and the journey is long
I might get tired but I must move on

The rain is fallin' and the weather is cold
Don't know which way to go but I continue to roll
The rainfall is really takin' a toll
On my mind and my body and on my spirit and soul

The rain's fallin' but I'm keepin' a hold
On the life 'cause I know that I could spin outta control
I know, know, I know, know
I know this is gonna be one rocky road

Most of our heroes are locked up, diseased or deceased
We can never really remorse until somebody restin' in peace
We measure the best by success and ain't impressed by nothin' less
Only time we say we wanna change is when we ain't got no change left

Only time we call on God is when is nobody else to call
Keep stumblin' over the same road block that just made ya fall
We always gotta wait till somethin' happen before we start reactin'
We at war with ourselves, how much longer are we gonna be attackin'?
