Darkest Valley

Cause I've walked, cause I've walked in the darkest
Cause I've walked, cause I've walked in the darkest valley, valley...
Oh oh oh oh

I lived a life of hell then I got saved
On your hard-drive, now I'm computer grade
Downloaded every scripture that my mind could take
Now I'm a PC, but with a Mac face
Too smart to get caught up in the rat race
I don't need the cheese, I don't need my life fast paced
I don't need the lights, I don't need the play the hard case
All I need is you, all I need is simple blind faith
Now my eyes are open, seeing HD
Definition of a prodigal who has been set free
I can tell you stories where this world is tryin' to take me
Through the darkest valley, but this grace was there to save me
I remember when Johnny boy was shot up
Can even remember when that prison door got locked up
I had a choice, either surrender or get shot up
This ain't a game, ain't nobody Xbox-ed up

Cause I've walked, cause I've walked in the darkest
Cause I've walked, cause I've walked in the darkest valley, valley...
Oh oh oh oh
Cause I've walked, cause I've walked in the darkest
Cause I've walked, cause I've walked in the darkest valley, valley...
Oh oh oh oh

I know the second that I came into this earth
I was made for more than heels and rockin' cute designer skirts
I got a voice and though I'm scared I feel my words carry worth
In my darkest valley I can see the sun above my earth
Reaching down just to rescue me from my insecurity
All of the abuse, my stepfather did when I was weak
Way too young to know that I should open up my mouth and speak
Now I see, all the years I lost tryin' to find some peace
And when my father died I swore it was the end of me
But Jesus gave me hope beyond the pain of what my eyes could see
Now I stand a daughter of a father who won't ever sleep
Truth is spoken, and now that truth is here to set you free

Cause I've walked, cause I've walked in the darkest
Cause I've walked, cause I've walked in the darkest valley, valley...
Oh oh oh oh
Cause I've walked, cause I've walked in the darkest
Cause I've walked, cause I've walked in the darkest valley, valley...
Oh oh oh oh

Me and the valley (the valley?), well we're well acquainted
I'm also cool with pain, heartbreak and anguish
Ain't it crazy when (?),
Define your childhood, experience beautiful skies
Turn black, turn back, I'll never
I've seen beautiful flowers grow from foul weather
However, therefore never the less (what's that?)
I'm a branch on the vine, through means of process
And until I rest, I'ma see them valleys
But I'ma be with the Sir like I'm on a beach in Cali (chillin')
Cali, He'll never leave nor forsake me (never)
The darkness may come, but it will never break me (break me)

Cause I've walked, cause I've walked in the darkest
Cause I've walked, cause I've walked in the darkest valley, valley...
Oh oh oh oh
Cause I've walked, cause I've walked in the darkest
Cause I've walked, cause I've walked in the darkest valley, valley...
Oh oh oh oh
