{Interlude}

Akon (akon)

C'mon (c'mon)

{Verse 1}

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 hike

{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

Retired 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 thats why I'm here today

{Chorus}

{Verse 3}

What about that day you said I would not ----

And about that day you kicked me out onto the bricks

What about that time you said I wouldnt 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 that I have to see-e

The wave is rolling jump on it a follow me-e

{Breakdown}

Born and raised in Africa trying to make a scene

(trying to make a scene)

The best way to get to you is by this music thing

And you might believe (believe,believe)

{Bridge}

Akon (Akon)

C'mon (c'mon)

{Verse 4}

Lets take it to the streets

I traveled through the ghettos of America

Lets take it to the streets

I traveled through the ghettos of Africa

Lets take it to the streets

I traveled through the ghettos of Asia

Lets take it to the streets

I traveled through the ghettos all over

{Chorus}

In my journey yea (yea, yea)
