[male vocals] Nna,
the
road
is
lonely
when
the
heart
knows
the
truth.
Oya,
let
the
guitar
weep
for
me.
They
told
me
she
wasn't
the
one,
they
turned
their
backs
so
cold,
My
father
looked
away,
a
story
of
tradition
told.
My
mother
walked
out
the
door,
she
couldn't
see
the
light,
My
brothers
and
sisters,
they
left
me
to
fight
this
fight
alone
tonight.
They
said
I
brought
the
shame,
they
said
I
broke
the
code,
They
refused
to
stand
with
me
on
this
long
and
dusty
road.
But
when
a
man
finds
his
destiny,
no
custom
holds
him
down,
Love
doesn't
ask
for
permission
when
your
soul
has
found
its
crown.
I
stood
on
the
path
I
thought
I’
d
walk
with
family
by
my
side,
But
love
is
a
fire
that
burns
through
the
pain
and
the
pride.
They
gathered
in
the
room,
they
swore
the
marriage
wouldn't
hold,
They
judged
the
woman
I
chose
with
hearts
that
felt
so
old.
No
father
there
to
guide,
no
mother
to
hold
my
hand,
No
brother
to
walk
with
me
across
this
burning
land.
Just
a
few
true
friends
remained
while
the
world
turned
into
gray,
But
I
felt
the
spirit
moving
in
a
quiet,
holy
way.
But
when
a
man
finds
his
destiny,
no
custom
holds
him
down,
Love
doesn't
ask
for
permission
when
your
soul
has
found
its
crown.
I
stood
on
the
path
I
thought
I’
d
walk
with
family
by
my
side,
But
love
is
a
fire
that
burns
through
the
pain
and
the
pride.
Chai!
The
burden
was
heavy,
the
silence
was
loud,
I
was
lost
in
the
shadows,
far
away
from
the
crowd.
But
God
stepped
in
from
above,
He
opened
up
the
sky,
He
gave
me
new
parents
to
lift
my
spirits
high.
I
walked
to
the
in-laws
with
my
friends
by
my
gate,
No
blood
kin
to
support
me,
just
the
hand
of
my
fate.
But
the
path
opened
wide,
the
blessing
finally
came,
I
found
a
new
family
to
wash
away
the
pain
and
the
shame.
Omo,
the
journey
is
hard,
but
the
fruit
is
sweet
and
pure,
When
you
trust
in
the
journey,
the
heart
is
always
sure.
But
when
a
man
finds
his
destiny,
no
custom
holds
him
down,
Love
doesn't
ask
for
permission
when
your
soul
has
found
its
crown.
I
stood
on
the
path
I
thought
I’
d
walk
with
family
by
my
side,
But
love
is
a
fire
that
burns
through
the
pain
and
the
pride.
No
father,
no
mother,
but
I
am
not
alone,
Chop
life
with
my
queen,
in
the
house
that
we
own.
Omalicha,
you
are
the
crown
I
found,
Walking
tall,
walking
steady,
on
this
holy
ground.
Nna,
the
heart
knows
the
way.
