Akon – Journey lyrics
[Interlude]
Akon (akon)
C'mon

[Verse:]
This is the ultimate journey of your life
Where the weak die and the strong survive
Prepare to suffer 40 days and 40 nights
Strap on your boots because you got a long ride

[Chorus:]
Just another journey, another journey into time
C'mon now
Just another journey, who ever thought I'd cross this line
Ohohohohoh

[Verse 2:]

Walking through the dirty streets of Jersey (Jersey)
A dollar to my name searchin for that key
I'm tryin not to reincorinate my past
I'm tired from the game, took another path
Destination 95 Dirty South
Where the devil tried to realter my route
Creator took me by the hand and led the way-ay
To make the story short that's why I'm here today

[Chorus:]
Just another journey, another journey into time(another journey into time)
Just another journey, who ever thought I'd cross this line(cross this line)
Ohohohohoh

What about that day you said I would not amount to shit
And about that day you kicked me out onto the bricks
What about that time you said I wouldn't make a dime
And about that time you said I couldn't make you mine
Destination to the bank overseas
Where Akons treated like royalty
Cause there's so much in this world I have to see-e
The wagon's is rolling so jump in and follow me-e

[Breakdown]

Born and raised in Africa trying to make a scene
(trying to make a scene)
The best way(the best way) to Israel is by this music thing
And you might believe

Lets take it to the streets(I traveled through the ghetto's of america)
Lets take it to the streets(I traveled through the ghetto's of africa)
Lets take it to the streets(I traveled through the ghetto's of asia)
Lets take it to the streets(I traveled through the ghetto's all over)

[Chorus:]
It's just a nother journey, a nother journey into time(a nother journey into time)
Just another journey, who ever thought I'd cross this line(cross this line)
Ohohohoh
In my journey yeaaahhhh!
