I Know Where I\'ve Been by:Queen Latifah
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 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
We must travel
There\'s a promise
We must make
\'Cause the riches
Will be plenty
Worth the risk
And chances that we take
There\'s a dream
In the future
There\'s a 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
