Just Another Road Video (MV)

Where have you been my friend?
I hope that you have travelled well
And oh have you seen the news

We got kids on the streets
Hatred and violence
Hunger and sickness
Scandals and vandals
Not enough money
Corruption, destruction
All kinds of problems

Oh, I have seen my friend
I have seen my friend
Oh and I know my friend
All too well my friend

Can you hear my love?
The drums echo through the streets and cut through the night
And can you hear them say

We got love for our brothers
The strength of our fathers
Faith in our friends
Trust in our children
Respect for each other
Patients and wisdom
Acceptance, forgiveness

Oh I have heard my love
I have heard my love
Now don't you fear my love
I hear it too my love

I am troubled oh lord
As I stumble down just some other dark road
And by chance, I happen to meet

I met liars and cheaters
Killers and thieves
Users and losers
Robbers and thugs
Scammers and swindlers
Racists and haters
Monsters and all sorts

I have met them lord
I have met them lord
Should I forgive them lord?
Should I forgive them lord?

Now son, have you ever known
The rain to fall from the sky and pierce at your skin
And do you know how it feels to be like me?

To be angry at nothing
Frustrated and empty
Confused and deluded
Lonely and pained
Hollow and weary
Defeated and cheated
All this and more

Son, this is how I am
This is how I feel
And I hope that you'll never see
The things that I have seen

Now we can share your blame
Through the vacant town where you're children once played
'Cause all we have that's left

We got greed and ignorance
Lust and obsession
Everything we wanted
Nothing we needed
Fighting and dying
No morals or dignity
Nothing of value

We have always known
You have always known
And you are not alone
My child, you're not alone
