On Time Lyrics - The Love Experience - Raheem Devaughn

Now to understand the struggle, to understand payin' dues 

And the pain of my people and your people all around the globe 

You gotta feel me, listen to music, use it 

What you know about juggling jobs 

And struggling hard and chasing dreams? 

What you know about havin' no car 

Rent bein' due and no bling bling? 

What you know about sacrificing 

All your wants for all your needs? 

What you know about lovin' your child 

Just to find out that ain't your seed? 

Until you know my joy, know my pain and know my struggles 

Until you've walked these shoes, paid my dues and felt my troubles 

Until you've shed my tears, known my fears in all my years 

Only 'til then, you only know what you think you know

What you know about hittin' that block 

And dodging them cops to make ends meet? 

What you know about the lights bein' off 

The gas bein' off and no food to eat? 

What you know about goodwill clothes 

While your friends dressed fly in junior high? 

What you know about grandma's words 

When she said, "One day, boy, you gon' shine" 

Until you know my joy, know my pain and know my struggles 

Until you've walked these shoes, paid my dues and felt my troubles 

Until you've shed my tears, known my fears in all my years 

Only 'til then, you only know what you think you know 

Until you know my joy, know my pain and know my struggles 

Until you've walked these shoes, paid my dues and felt my troubles 

Until you've shed my tears, known my fears in all my years 

Only 'til then, you only know what you think you know

What you know about writin' late at night 

By candlelight 'til the shit is tight? 

What you know about late night prayers 

And late night tears, hopin' God? 

What you know about earning your keep 

Because you don't bend, break or ask? 

And don't you know the last'll be first 

Hey and the first will be last? 

Until you know my joy, know my pain and know my struggles 

Until you've walked these shoes, paid my dues and felt my troubles 

Until you've shed my tears, known my fears in all my years 

Only 'til then, you only know what you think you know

Until you've shed my tears, known my fears in all my years 

Only 'til then, you only know what you think you know 

Hey and those who know my struggle 

And those who know my pain 

Put one finger in the air 

Until then, I said until then, yeah 

Until you walk in my shoes, paid my dues 

(Until you, until you, until you) 

Know my struggles, know my troubles 

(Until you, until you, until you, until you) 

Until you know, until you know, until you know 

Until you know, until you know, until you know 

Until you know, until you know 

Until you know my joy, know my pain and know my struggles 

Until you've walked these shoes, paid my dues and felt my troubles 

Until you've shed my tears, known my fears in all my years 

Only 'til then, you only know what you think you know 

Until you know
