if you had known me
when i was down and out/
you'd have a much clearer picture
of what i'm about/you'd understand why
my every breath is like a drug/
why i sup with the doctor
as well as the thug/why i see beauty
in the darkest hour/
Why i embrace the sunshine
and kiss the rain shower/if you had known me
when i was almost gone/
secured by the love
of God alone/you would understand why
the Word of God is my grub/
why i dance at the church
and minister at the club/why i use every minute
like it may be my last/
and avoid negativity
like i'm on a fast/you'd have a much clearer picture
of what i'm about/
if you had known me
when i was down and out.
