Long Hard Road
Journey to Freedom: Navigating Life's Challenges with Wendell Kimbrough
Lyrics
There's a long hard road ahead of me
Anticipation of a challenging journey lies ahead
Full of twists and turns in places I can't see
Obstacles and uncertainties characterize the path
But if I'm to reach the valley where the grass is growing green
Desire to reach a beautiful and prosperous destination
There's a long hard road ahead of me
Reiteration of the challenging nature of the journey
I am lying in a place where I can't sleep
Difficulty in finding peace or rest
Every way I turn my body, I'm still beat
Feeling physically exhausted from trying different approaches
cnd the longer that I stay here, the more I know I need
A realization that staying stagnant is not an option
To take the long hard road ahead of me
Acknowledgment of the necessity to embark on the challenging journey
I have looked out for a path that I might find
Searching for an easier path or solution
Just an easy way to walk and change my mind
Hoping for a simpler way out and reconsideration
But the way from which I waver is the only path I see
Realization that the wavering path is the only visible option
There's a long hard road ahead of me
Reaffirmation of the difficulties ahead
There's a pretty girl waiting for me there
Longing for a significant other, unreachable due to unknown barriers
She's a jewel in a crown that any king would want to wear
Describing the beloved as a precious and desired entity
But she's locked up in a tower by some hands that I can't see
Symbolism of the beloved's confinement or unattainability
There's a long hard road ahead of me
Reiteration of the challenging journey due to barriers in reaching the beloved
There's a destination worth the weary way
Recognition of a meaningful goal despite hardships
Where the one I love will look at me and say
Hope for acknowledgment and gratitude from the loved one at the destination
"Thank you for the time you spent fighting to be free
Anticipating appreciation for the struggle for freedom
On the long hard road, you took the long hard road
Highlighting the perseverance and successful completion of the difficult journey
cnd you made it to the place you want to be."
Reiteration of acknowledgment for reaching the desired destination
