I Know Where I've Been

There's a light in the darkness

Though the night 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 distance

It's a voice that comes from deep within

There's a cry asking why

I pray the answer's up ahead yeah

'Cause I know where I've been

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/q/queen_latifah/i_know_where_ive_been.html ]

There's a road we've been travellin'

Lost so many on the way

But the riches will be plenty

With the price, the price we had to pay

There's a dream in the future

There's a struggle that we have yet to win

And there's pride in my heart

'Cause I know where I'm going, yes I do

And I know where I've been, yeah

There's a road that we must travel

There's a promise that we must make

Oh the riches will be plenty

Oh the dream in the future

Oh the struggle we must win

Use that pride in our heart

To lift us up

Lord knows I know

Where I've been

I'll give thanks to my god cause I

No were I've been yeah

This song is amazing and emotional and made me cry. Queen Latifah and the Glee Cast version are the best versions ever.

There is no way on earth that Lauren Platt in the X Factor did justice to this song. She can't sing and to use a song about the Civil Rights struggle as a "Save me" song on a fourth rate TV show is an insult.

This is my favourite song. So sad but so true what happened. How could white people do that to them.
