(feat. Mos Def) 



[Verse 1: Stephen Marley] 

I've been gone awhile away from you when I hope you overstand 

That I got to do what I must do to be a better man 

Cause if I was just to act a fool do nothing for myself 

Then all my blessings would be cursed my world would be crumbling 

It's a joy when I siiiit down and think cause of the good things that we have 

And what we do to make it through when the good turns into bad 

Well I hope you find it in your heart and know these words are true 

And please don't fuss because I mist go do what I must do 



[Chorus: Stephen Marley] 

Hey baby don't you worry, even though the road is rocky 

I'll be coming home to you again 

And if you thought that I was lost, I have to bury my cross 

Now I'm free from all these chains 



[Verse 2: Stephen Marley] 

A time and space a different place a perfect we might be 

I would be the wind that blows you be that widow tree 

And I could never bail and thought of you not by my side 

So I would be the one to tell you be the cool of night 

And everyday I pray to Jah that one day you will see 

And overstand the fact I must fulfill my destiny 

I hope you find it in your heart and know these words are true 

And please don't cry you know I must do what I must do 



[Chorus: Stephen Marley] 

Hey baby don't you worry, even though the road is rocky 

I'll be coming home to you again 

And if you thought that I was lost, I have to bury my cross 

Now I'm free from all these chains 



[Bridge: Stephen Marley] (Mos Def) 

Well then it's not easy, Jah knows I have tried I tried 

So don't you get weary (Oh God) Jah knows I tried 



[Verse 3: Mos Def] 

And God knows, that life is one big road 

With alot of signs and turns and twist and curves 

Even though the road is rocky 

But maintain to ride and keep on rockin 

From, city to city backyard to yard 

And we, be seein the cites standin under the lights 

And the spot is hot it's cold and lonely at nights 

And I'm feenin and I'm dreamin and I'm holdin you tight 

But hold on, every single road I rode on 

Come to an end and I'm back home again 

So baby please don't cry 

Cause nobody knows and it's no bye bye bye 

And our love don't die with the passin of time 

It just grow more, it just keep strong 

And even though I'm gone I ain't movin too far 

Your the light through the dark shinnin right through my heart 

So my journey just start 



[Chorus: Stephen Marley] 

Hey baby don't you worry, even though the road is rocky 

I'll be coming home to you again 

And if you thought that I was lost, I have to bury my cross 

Now I'm free from all these chains 



[Outro: Stephen Marley] 

And if you thought that I was lost, I have to bury my cross 

Now I'm free from all these chains
