Hardway

CHORUS:

Some people gotta learn the hard way

I guess I'm the kinda guy who has to find out for myself

I had to learn the hardway Father

I'm on my knees and I'm crying for Your help

VERSE 1 (KJ-52):

The warning signs like falres in the night

I proceed with my greed indeed but now in spite

of the fire I knows to burn I never learn

as the world turns on its axis I'm like Saul

on the road to Damascus I'm like broken fragments

of broken glasses can't see the facts is

from the fiction God's voice now speaking

but i never listened got me wishing I never

took the hard way 'cause every day is a hard day

turn my heart away God be feeling like

He's far away Jesus take the scars away

'cause life be mad hard today

trying hard not to sway

selfish way finally catching up to me

but if I fall you's catching me

I know You's catching me

CHORUS

VERSE TWO:

Been high and low but the stories told

my eyes can show that I walked the hard ways road

when it's my time to go I'll stand toe to toe

to one who grips my soul whose never letting go

life's so cold but so many times

I shed so many tears from so many eyes spoke so many

lies

I was the maker of my own demise

my own face I couldn't recognize woke up one day

and realized my compromised lifestyle

since the birth canal to a juvenile yo this kid was wild

sometimes it hurts to smile but Jesus made it worth my

while

keeping it versatilelike I was writing in Spanish backwards

in a cursive style so meanwhile to the mean time

I leave the blind to lead the blind

so with every step I climb

leave the past way far behind out of sight and out of mind
