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
