Woke up one mornin, it was kinda cold In my room there was no room to consume the heat Looked outside where the snow's piled high Covered the paths of the first man's pride But this won't last cause the sun still exists The road symbolizes the first man's history List achievements, far from sufferin I will shine and stop the snow from smotherin My pride, my blackness, my African culture The snow gets thick, the road gets colder The road gets harder but I hold strength of better days The snow is here to stop me from gettin paid But keep in mind I'm workin The snow's gettin paid and he's steadily smirkin As I smile cause I know somethin that he will never know When the road is covered with snow The snow covers me up so I won't notice the plot Then sets me up so I seem to be in a spot Then locks me up cause there I'm considered a slave, and Surrounds me in a ma** of pavement Now where have the days went I seem to be cracked a little bit From Caucus Mountain as his feet walk all over me I get weaker until the day comes When the sun comes shinin in and I'm ??? Slowly melt their ma**es, the ??? pa**es When I'm the path that I once was in the beginnin This is no sport of winter, I'm a black face Once I enter then I'mma win Although you come again I fight back, black is the original I'm not a criminal, so why do you try to penalize I know your plan, you got the power to devour With media turn my sweetness sour Stand on my back in hopes that I will not grow (What?) But I know You will not stop me, the past a mystery Now made history, evil's trickery Won't blow past me, I see right through ya Don't let them fool ya, I'm here to school ya Teach you the past, the only way to succeed But speed is what you need So read up on yourself Brothers we need to help Instead of relyin on the government, rely on yourself They're hiding, so conniving Biased laws to create for the fall Of the road you been told They will not tell you unless you need to know When the road is covered with snow Now brothers comprehend what I send (Hm-hmm) Tellin you over and over and over again I'm a witness that there is a road out there A road that we built (Talk that talk, brother) And there is a force out there to cover you up and hide your pride (Your pride) Hide all your achievements (All your achievements) But look through this Look up to the sun (To the Father) Peace I'm outta here (Peace)
