Words of The Week: Many More Roads by Ky-Mani Marley

Many More Roads

Many more roads to trod

There’ll be many mountains to cross

And though, you neglected, rejected and injected me

Still it’s only love I have

There’ll be many more roads to trod

There’ll be many mountains to cross

And though, you neglected, rejected and injected me

Still it’s only love I have

Said I’m not looking for your fortune

Your fame, nor your glory

Ain’t trying to get your fancy things

Just a want a little airtime so I can play mine

Break mine, trying to make mine

To seat the one this life may bring

Now you see my friends they get me shady

My girl, she thinks I’m crazy

Don’t trust no shot after dark

And, for my life you can’t repay me

So anytime you face me

Be prepared for my dogs to bark

Many more roads to trod

Many mountains to cross

And though, you neglected, rejected and injected me

Still it’s only love I have

Some don’t understand me when I tell them that my life is for my children

So, I’m ready for anything

How could live your life with no love

Wrap your head in pure grudge

Now, I see you don’t know The King

So you may deceit and get the teachings

Refuse and get a beating

Hey, true love is from within

Now for the rest of my days

It’s Jah I will praise

Whoooa, now hear me sing

Many more roads to trod

There’ll be many mountains to cross

And though, you neglected, rejected and injected me

Still it’s only love I have

There’ll be many more roads to trod

There’ll be many mountains to cross

And though, you neglected, rejected and injected me

Still it’s only love I have

So

Fools rise from your slumber!

Praise Jah sun and Jah rain and Jah moon and Jah fyah now

Know the battle will be hotta!

But just give Jah your love and you will forever whoa

Fools rise from your slumber!

Praise Jah sun, Jah rain, Jah moon and Jah fyah now

Know the battle will be hotta!

But just give Jah your love and you will foriver

Many more roads to trod

There’ll be many mountains to cross

And though, you neglected, rejected and injected me

Still it’s only love I have

Said I’m not looking for your fortune

Fame, nor your glory

Ain’t trying to get your fancy things

Just a want a little airtime so I can play mine

Break mine, trying to make mine

To seat the one this life may bring

Now you see my friends they get me shady

My girl, she thinks I’m crazy

Whoa, don’t trust no shot after dark

And, for my life you can’t repay me

So anytime you face me

Be prepared for my dogs to bark

Many more roads to trod

Many mountains to cross

And though, you neglected, rejected and injected me

Still it’s only love I have

That’s all I have

Many more roads to cross

Many mountains, many mountains

You neglected, rejected and injected me

Still it’s only love I have. . .
