It's Not Easy - Lucky Dube

Go ahead, just tell me I'm to blame I know you need attention Someone you can hold while I'm away And I'm scared, I'm horrified of change I know you want a child, we could talk it out Mama used to say "Boy, love isn't easy, it's hard" She said, "Boy, love isn't easy, it's heartache" "Boy, see everyone leaves and your heart breaks" But I still hold on No, I'll still hold on I think I got the message for a while I'll disconnect and keep the heart safe I replicate emotion Medicate in doses that can help me feel the same way It's easier to say we're just friends Our generation made us that way The type of friends who fuck But when they fall in love they're too afraid to stay But I still, still hold on Still, I've been holding on it "Boy, love isn't easy, it's heartache" "Boy, see everyone leaves and your heart breaks" I'm so done with love 'Cause like tears in the rain, it means nothing I say don't fall in love 'Cause love means nothing

I just can't keep going along Making believe that nothing's wrong It's wrong and it's always gonna be Nothing you did in anyway Nothing you say or didn't say It's not you, baby, it's me So keep on being long and tall Keep on talking with the same old drawl Keep on, baby, don't you trip and fall over me The petals on the daisy drop You love me then, you love me not You love me not, it's plain to see Who keeps the fire burning bright? The one who's losing sleep at night It ain't you, baby, it's me So keep the rose you never brought Keep the ring that you never bought It's all my fault, it's all my fantasy Oh, but I can't give you no more of myself Cause I'm looking out for somebody else It ain't you, baby, baby, it's me Oh, but I can't give you no more of myself Cause I'm looking out for somebody else It ain't you, baby, it's me

Sitting at this party Wondering if anyone knows me Really sees who I am Oh, it's been so long since I felt really known Fragile in the morning Can't hold on to much of anything With this hole in my hand I can't pretend that we always keep what we find Oh, yes, everybody splits apart sometimes Living in the wake of overwhelming changes We've all become strangers Even to ourselves We just can't help We can't see from far away To know that every wave might not be the same But it's all apart of one big thing Oh, it's not just me, it's not just me It's not just me It's everybody (everybody) Everybody, everybody, everybody Mercy is the only Cure for being so lonely Has a time ever been more revealing That the people are hurting Oh, it's not just me I guess, it's everybody Yes, we all bleed the same way Oh, it's not just me, it's not just me It's not just me It's everybody (everybody) Everybody, everybody, everybody Everybody, everybody, everybody Oh, it's not just me, it's not just me It's not just me It's everybody It's not just me

All my friends are gone, I don't blame them I guess I'd move on, do the same thing So I wrote a song to be my lullaby Sing me to sleep at night, open my third eye I'm not gon' lie to you, I miss you so much Tell me what I did wrong to lose touch I'm not gon' lie to you, this has been a hard year How I wish that you were here I just need to let it go, waitin' on a miracle Guess that's just the way it goes, easy come, easy go I just need to let it go, turn it down and lay low It's just the way it goes, easy come, easy go Sometimes I drive a little too fast Think I'm runnin' from demons of my past So I wrote a song to help me slow down Keep my mind straight, but it's a bit late I'm not gon' lie to you, I miss you so much Tell me what I did wrong to lose touch I'm not gon' lie to you, this has been a hard year How I wish that you were here I just need to let it go, waitin' on a miracle Guess that's just the way it goes, easy come, easy go I just need to let it go, turn it down and lay low It's just the way it goes, easy come, easy go I just need to let it go (I just need to let it go) Waitin' on a miracle (waitin' on a miracle) Guess that's just the way it goes (guess that's just the way it goes) Easy come, easy go I just need to let it go (I just need to let it go) Turn it down and lay low (lay low) It's just the way it goes (it's just the way it goes) Easy come, easy go Remember when you got sick, cancer of the bone Everyone in school while you're sittin' at home In your wheelchair of grief, find no relief We were there for the ups and downs and There for the constant rounds of chemo Yeah, you know that you were our hero You were there when I was a zero And I swear I'll make things right before the long night Swear I'll make things right tomorrow But as for tonight I just need to let it go (I just need to let it go) Waitin' on a miracle (waitin' on a miracle) Guess that's just the way it goes (guess that's just the way it goes) Easy come, easy go I just need to let it go (I just need to let it go) Turn it down and lay low (lay low) It's just the way it goes (it's just the way it goes) Easy come, easy go I just need to let it go (I just need to let it go) Waitin' on a miracle (waitin' on a miracle) Guess that's just the way it goes (guess that's just the way it goes) Easy come, easy go I just need to let it go (I just need to let it go) Turn it down and lay low (lay low) It's just the way it goes (it's just the way it goes) Easy come, easy go I just need to let it go (I just need to let it go) Waitin' on a miracle (waitin' on a miracle) Guess that's just the way it goes (guess that's just the way it goes) Easy come, easy go I just need to let it go (I just need to let it go) Turn it down and lay low (lay low) It's just the way it goes...

فوسط زحمة وناس كتير وطريق أنا ماشي فيه عكس السير وسط الطموح والأمل والتمني فاضلي خطوة توصلني فوسط حاجات ومكيفات بحاول أنسى كل اللي فات في وسط صدري ضلعي مكسور ومن خلاله قلبي شايف نور أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع فوسط الليل وأنا بعيد عن البشر شفت نور يشبه نور القمر بس القمر مسيره يفارق ويسيبني تاني مع الوحدة أحارب فوسط قصة حب يعني وهمية كان لازم أصدق اصل الوحدة قوية مش كل المشاعر حقيقية أنا شفت نور معرفتش اغمض عنيا أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع
