I Know Where I've Been

Jennifer Hudson -I Know Where I've Been

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 yeah

'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 the price we had to pay

There's a dream in the future

There's a struggle that 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

Oh but the riches the riches will be plenty

Worth the risks and the chances that we take

There's a dream yeah in the future

There's a struggle that 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

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
