Lesser miles to go

Lesser miles to go by Adejola Joseph Lesser miles to go Lost and lonely Bewildered and perplexed The city's got everybody busy Palm on my cheek Pondering what next? The journey seems far The task's pretty arduous and burdensome Where do we go? What do we do? With thin eyes I see the future And I know all we have is... lesser miles to go Weary and troublesome We are on the circumference of fate Emotions tortured by happenings around us Circumstances forced us to be intolerant and; profusely indignant of one another Confusions and rage in the air Loathsomeness and treachery permeates the heart We are on and off the track Often times we lose our balance while hanging our fate on deity's resolve Are we to talk of unconscious rash decisions? Yes! Like seasons - it comes and goes No matter how unpredictable the future looks like I know we have lesser miles to go Bury your worries Dig the grave for your anxiety Overlook the gloom and broom your heart Get your visions right and view the light Expansiate your hope and see your peace through the hole of faith Like a bird let your heart sing Like a river let your joy flow Like a tree let your peace sway We are fine Oh! We shall be fine No matter the rays and shadows of hopelessness I see we have lesser miles to go to our promised land!!!
