If I Knew Then, What I Know Now Lyrics - I Still Believe - Lyfe Jennings

It took a tragedy for me to see, for me to come back to reality 

It took my family, sanity 

This wasn't part of the plan for me 

People talked about me, went on without me 

As if I had never existed 

I guess a blessing taught me a lesson 

I'll remember as long as I'm living 

If I knew then what I know now, I'd be different, I would slow down 

I would not be running around, if I knew then what I know now 

If I knew then what I know now, I'd be different, I would slow down 

As the world spins round and around, wish I knew then what I know now 

I did it to myself, blamed nobody else 

People warned me before it went down 

I was out of control, drugs and alcohol, living lyfe like there was no tomorrow 

And I'm not no superstar, times are super hard 

I'm still finding my way dad to day 

And I'm a man of my mind, I apologize, no one's perfect we all make mistakes 

If I knew then what I know now, I'd be different, I would slow down 

I would not be running around, if I knew then what I know now 

If I knew then what I know now, I'd be different, I would slow down 

As the world spins round and around, wish I knew then what I know now 

Spent a lot of time upset, lot of things I regret 

Damn it's so hard to let it go it go 

They say that this gonna pass, I know but I'm still mad 

It just all happen so fast, fo sho fo sho 

Mommy say lyfe is prayer, daddy say lyfe ain't fair 

But at least lyfe still here, ya know ya know 

If I could take it back I would, if you could take it back you should 

Bad times come with the good, hold on hold on 

If I knew then what I know now, I'd be different, I would slow down 

I would not be running around, if I knew then what I know now 

If I knew then what I know now, I'd be different, I would slow down 

As the world spins round and around, wish I knew then what I know now
