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
'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 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 (there's a road) we must travel (we must travel)
There's a promise (there's a promise) we must make (that we must make)
'Cause the riches (will be plenty) will be plenty
Worth the risk (worth the risk) and chances that we take

There's a dream in the future
There's a struggle (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
