Heavy Load

(album: Third Time's The Charm - 2022)

Sometimes I know we be stuck in our ways
Born alone and die alone, can't cry about no pain
Good deeds are counted and measured and weighed
Heavy load man a carry though, can't stop the show this day
Always I know in my peace lies my faith
Higher ground man a trod a road, not a worry, no, things straight
Feelings and people, like seasons, they change
Fire bun when I around, Mount Zion, oh

I know that Jah Jah will be there for me
By my side
I know my burdens get hard to carry
Man a soldier
I know that Jah Jah will be there for me
By my side
I know my burdens get hard to carry
Still I carry my heavy load
Still I carry my heavy load
Still I carry my heavy load

Things wha' deh pon me head carry
Jah say me fi let it go
Can't spend everyday a worry
Dem ting deh affect the soul
Don't shy when you fi say sorry
Talk up make somebody know
Love unconditionally
That you can't say me never do
Hoping there'll be many more
Moments full of happiness
Coping with whatever thrown at me
Positively manifest
No, life naa go ever easy
Challenge deh deh every way
No, Jah naa go ever leave me
Walk with me each and everyday

I know that Jah Jah will be there for me
By my side
I know my burdens get hard to carry
Man a soldier
I know that Jah Jah will be there for me
By my side
I know my burdens get hard to carry
Still I carry my heavy load
Still I carry my heavy load
Still I carry my heavy load
