"Long Way To Travel" lyrics
(Long way)
You know (Long way)
Sometimes you just gotta take a chance in life
(Long way)
We've come a long way
(Long way)
But we still got a long way to go, oh
Sometimes I look around, see things that I don't like
Our people dying, and you know it just ain't right
They said that things would change, but I don't think that's so
Hope is broken everywhere I go
I walk the streets day and night
And I pray that peace be on my side
I can't trust the wind, it will burn my eyes
We've come so far but realize
We've got a long way to travel
We've got a long way to go
We've got a long way to travel
We've got a long way to go
Let's take a stand, men, be the man you can
You and I, let's reprimand this government's plans
High-placed officials telling little white lies
Our hidden cultures and truthful things they hide
Just like the rain falls in the sea
We've gotta show some kind of unity, oh
I can't trust the heat, it's baking me
Can't turn back now, oh, can't you see
We've got a long way to travel
We've got a long way to go
We've got a long way to travel
We've got a long way to go (Oh)
Oh yeah
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Love and unity is the only way
So, let's get our own, baby, we can stay
We've got a long way
We've got a long way to travel
(A long, long way)
We've got a long way to go
(We've got a long way to go)
We've got a long way to travel
(We've got a long, long way)
We've got a long way to go
(I said we've got a, we've got a long way, yeah)
We've got a long way to travel
(Many years, Lord, I done tried)
We've got a long way to go
(Just go on and dry your little weeping eye)
(Something's bound to happen)
Something's bound to happen
(We've got a long way)
There's gonna be, there's gonna be change
Have a long way
(Long way, we got a long way to go)
Come on
(Long way, we got a long way to go)
Everybody sing
(Something's bound to happen)
(Long way, we got a long way to go)
Something's bound to happen
(We've got a long way, long way, we've got a long way to go)
Well, we've got a long way
(We've got a long way to travel)
Woo, said we've got a long, long way to go
(We've got a long way to go)
(Something's bound to happen)
Something's bound to happen, yeah
(We've got a long way, a long way to go)
(We've got a long way to go)
(We've come so far, let's take a stand)
(We've got a long way to travel)
(Can't turn back now) No
(Something's bound to happen)
Show some unity, we've got a long way to go
(We've got a long way, a long way to go)
Can't you see?
(We've got a long way to travel)
(We've got a long way to go)
(Something's bound to happen)
(We've got a long way, a long way)
You know (Long way)
Sometimes you just gotta take a chance in life
(Long way)
We've come a long way
(Long way)
But we still got a long way to go, oh
Sometimes I look around, see things that I don't like
