Road Of Life
Gentleman Lyrics

What's happening, tell me what's happening
Asking for an understanding of current events and situations.

The majority is suffering
Recognizing that many people are in a state of pain.

You see we trodin on this road of life
Acknowledging that we are all moving along the path of existence.

Disciples of the truth and we are so proud of life
Embracing the pursuit of honesty and authenticity in life.

This is just another episode of life
Seeing life as a series of ongoing experiences.

While Babylon a try to crack the code of life
Observing the systemic attempts to understand the mysteries of life.

Now we ask dem a question why dem doin' it
Inquiring as to the motivations behind certain actions.

Life is precious as it is and still dem ruin it
Expressing disappointment at the destructive behavior towards life.

Now I can see that you never had a clou in it
Noticing that someone does not seem to have a good understanding of the situation.

Your goal is hopeless and still you keep pursuing it
Observing the futility of certain aspirations, yet seeing people persist in pursuing them.

You watch my works instead of your yours I see you viewin' it
Noticing someone copying or imitating one's actions rather than finding and pursuing their own goals.

Your ways are so predictable there's nothin' new in it
Perceiving someone pursuing a predictable path without any deviation or originality.

The golden opportunity you have been blewin' it
Witnessing someone squander a chance for success or improvement.

Free up the road and stop curfewin' it
Advocating for the removal of restrictions and limitations to allow for greater freedom in life.

Tell me who will stop the fire when it's blazin
Asking who will put an end to a destructive situation.

And who will calm the water when it's ragin (only Jah alone)
Recognizing that only a higher power can bring calmness to a turbulent state.

'Cause God is so amazing
Appreciating the greatness and power of a divine force.

So amazing, God is so amazing
Reiterating the awe-inspiring nature of the divine.

Just like the wind of time keep changing
Comparing the ever-changing nature of life to the winds of time.

I just go with the flow 'cause I m not gazing
Choosing to live in the present moment without worrying about the future.

(Got to keep it real) 'cause I m not rearranging
Staying true to oneself and not changing to fit the expectations of others.

Don't wonder why dem doi'n it
Advising against wasting time trying to understand destructive behavior.

Nor the reason they persuing it
Dismissing the importance of trying to identify the motivations behind harmful actions.

We know seh money a dem idol
Acknowledging that for some, money is their primary motivator.

Dem nuh care about the people dem survival
Noticing that some prioritize their own gain over the well-being of others.

Dem a grab it and go run with it
Observing the selfish behavior of taking and running with something without considering others.

So tell me when dem ago done with it
Questioning when the destructive behavior will end.

Killing the people dem ability
Observing that harmful actions can hinder someone's capability to improve or succeed.

And dem fight against dem upward mobility
Noticing that some actively work against their own opportunity for progression and success.

Oh Gosh
Expressing a feeling of exasperation or weariness.
