More time race slower I go

what you're running for I never will know

What you seek in front of your face

is behind you too all over the place



The road is long and the road is hard

along the way you may find reward

The struggle is long we will not survive

do the best you can while you're still alive



We break the chains -- ain't nowhere to go

when that time will come don't nobody know

Every morning about the break of day

a beautiful dawn soon burns away



Oppressors try to take my rights

I will not obey I will pay any price

I'll stand my ground I'll not be fleeing

the laws of a human being



There's just one law one great command

and from where it comes I don't understand

One thing I know there's just two ways

either follow the light or in darkness you stay
