CHORUS:
|
Some people gotta learn the hard way
|
I guess I'm the kinda guy who has to find out for myself
|
I had to learn the hardway Father
|
I'm on my knees and I'm crying for Your help
|
|
VERSE 1 (KJ-52):
|
The warning signs like falres in the night
|
I proceed with my greed indeed but now in spite
|
of the fire I knows to burn I never learn
|
as the world turns on its axis I'm like Saul
|
on the road to Damascus I'm like broken fragments
|
of broken glasses can't see the facts is
|
from the fiction God's voice now speaking
|
but i never listened got me wishing I never
|
took the hard way 'cause every day is a hard day
|
turn my heart away God be feeling like
|
He's far away Jesus take the scars away
|
'cause life be mad hard today
|
trying hard not to sway
|
selfish way finally catching up to me
|
but if I fall you's catching me
|
I know You's catching me
|
|
CHORUS
|
|
VERSE TWO:
|
Been high and low but the stories told
|
my eyes can show that I walked the hard ways road
|
when it's my time to go I'll stand toe to toe
|
to one who grips my soul whose never letting go
|
life's so cold but so many times
|
I shed so many tears from so many eyes spoke so many
|
lies
|
I was the maker of my own demise
|
my own face I couldn't recognize woke up one day
|
and realized my compromised lifestyle
|
since the birth canal to a juvenile yo this kid was wild
|
sometimes it hurts to smile but Jesus made it worth my
|
while
|
keeping it versatilelike I was writing in Spanish backwards
|
in a cursive style so meanwhile to the mean time
|
I leave the blind to lead the blind
|
so with every step I climb
|
leave the past way far behind out of sight and out of mind
|
