I Know Where You'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 (ooh, yeah, yeah)
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 traveling
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, yes, I do
And I know where I've been, yeah

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)
But the riches will be plenty (the riches will be plenty)
Worth the risk (worth the risk) and the chances that we take

There's a dream in the future
There's a struggle (struggle) that we have yet to win (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
