Queen Latifah - I Know Where You’ve Been lyrics

There's a light in the darkness
Though the night is black as my skin
There's a light burning bright
Showing me the way
But I know where I've been

There's a cry in the distance
It's a voice that comes from deep within
There's a cry asking why
I pray the answer's up ahead
'Cause I know where I've been

There's a road we've been travelin'
Lost so many on the way but the riches
Will be plenty worth the price we
Had to pay there's a dream
In the future there's a struggle
We have yet to win and there's pride
In my heart 'Cause I know
Where I'm going and I know where I've been

There's a road we must travel
There's a promise we must make
'Cause the riches will be plenty
Worth the risk and chances that we take
There's a dream in the future
There's a struggle

We have yet to win use that pride
In our hearts to lift us up
To tomorrow 'Cause just to sit still
Would be a sin

I know it, I know it i know where I'm going
And lord knows I know where I've been

Oh, when we win i'll give thanks to my god
'Cause I know where I've been
