Julian Marley Straighter Roads Lyrics

Oh yeah, woah woah woah woah, mmm yeah

[Chorus]
Straighter roads are up ahead
Play it safe, no sudden breaks, ay
Straighter roads are up ahead, ooo
Soon there'll be no stop lights on red
Soon there'll be no dark clouds ahead, ay

[Verse 1]
We're heading the direction for redemption
Keep your eyes open for the force
We don't wanna see no elevation
They'll do anything to keep you love

[Pre-Chorus]
So they keep up spinning on the high way
Skidding down an ice age
Ooh, gotta stay calm to gain control
'Cause accidents are plenty, ha
Lanes are never empty, oh
But at least they're moving slow

[Verse 2]
In a twinkle of an eye you might be suprised
And when you least expect opportunities arise
For you to flourish and shine and make way for others
Ay, the more we pretend is the more we get out of line

[Chorus]
So no giving up
Straighter roads are up ahead
Play it safe, no sudden breaks, no no
Straighter roads are up ahead, ooo Soon there'll be no stop lights on red, ay
Soon there'll be no dark clouds ahead

[Verse 3]
Pressures of the world wants you to break down
Is it shake down
Never keep a problem on your head
No dread, no dread

[Pre-Chorus]
What happened to the peoples declaration?
And the freedom fighters who have fled?
We're here
Their words forever echo
Bidding us to never let go, oh
Of our dignity and thoughts
With the will to survive against all odds
[?]
So rekindle your hopes of victory

[Chorus]
Straighter roads are up ahead
You're gonna play it safe, no sudden breaks, no no no no
Straighter roads are up ahead, oh
Soon there'll be no stop lights on red
Straighter roads let me go
You play it safe, oh yeah
Straighter roads are up ahead, yeah
Soon there'll be no stop lights on red
Soon there'll be no dark clouds ahead
Straighter roads
You gotta let me go
Straighter roads are here
Bring me up
