Rocky Road

[Hook: Chamillionaire]

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 light cause I know that I could spin out of control

I know (know) I know (know) I knowwww

This is gonna be one rocky road

[Chamillionaire]

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 that I seen, 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 rests in the message, when I go I go in a blaze

But it won't be no Captain Save 'Em cause where I'm goin you saved

Tryin to rain down on my parade 'til that umbrella get raised

They thinkin that they can read me when they ain't knowin' 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

It's like it's a piece of cake, part of the icing is venom

Spend a lifetime tryin to bring me down, but I just ain't gonna let 'em

You better tell 'em

Uhh, I'm back and forth and I'm pacin, bein more patient than patients

Tryin to wait for the good news to show up but I'm unfortunately waitin

Gotta be group participation if it's in the courts that we makin

I was unfortunately done and she was unfortunately fakin

Cause the only sexual spark is the spark he got for the dough

They say 'til 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 befo'

He thinks this is where 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 for sho'

I hope you know where you're goin, I hope you know that today

On the side of the road you gon' see a whole lot of snakes

When the bad weather comes to rain down on your parade

Just raise up your umbrella and try to keep goin straight

And keep on goin

This road has many curves, many bumps and potholes

It can even take you through a loop if you ain't got yo'

{shit} together, unpredictable weather could leave you

Dehydrated, frostbitten, 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 hitchhike but there's too much pride

I must find a narrow path so I can walk and laugh out loud

Choir sing without bein judged by the crowd

Maybe someday I could just fly away but for now

I just beat my feet and get there someway, somehow

And, mile after mile after mile I'll smile

Keepin my head up even though rain's pourin down

And the road gets rough and the journey is long

I might get tired but I must move on

Most of our heroes are locked up, diseased, or deceased

You could never really feel remorse until somebody restin in peace

You 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 there is nobody else to call

Keep stumblin over the same roadblock that just made you fall

We always gotta wait 'til somethin happen before we start reactin

We at war with ourselves, how much longer are we gon' be attackin?
