Wish I Knew Lyrics

Man I wish I

Man I wish I knew

A little faith will get you through

Never let a setback shake you out your move

When your back against the wall

And they all want you to lose

Have a little faith and see it through

Man I wish I knew

A little faith will get you through

Never let a setback shake you out your move

When your back against the wall

And they all want you to lose

Have a little faith and see it through

I wish I could go back and re-align my focus

Couple years ago I was really at my lowest

But I hid it well so you probably didn't notice

Acting like I'm strong

But inside I was broken

Went and caught that nigga lacking

But I'm glad that I ain't blow it

Had to think about my future

Got too caught up in the moment

I was used to running from my fears

But in the last few years

I learned you ain't a real man until you own it

I don't talk bout violence in my music

Cause its shit that I'm not doing

And it's power in the words that you promoting

But I know this world is filled with envy

It can escalate quickly

And for that I always keep one loaded

You ain't seen what I seen

You ain't felt what I felt

But you tryna tell me how to play the cards

That I was dealt

Have a little faith if you don't do nothing else

Words of encouragement to my younger self

Man I wish I knew

A little faith will get you through

Never let a setback shake you out your move

When your back against the wall

And they all want you to lose

Have a little faith and see it through

Man I wish I knew

A little faith will get you through

Never let a setback shake you out your move

When your back against the wall

And they all want you to lose

Have a little faith and see it through

Won't forget the day I graduated

Went and got that cap and gown

I did everything they told me that would bring me success

But to the world was just a nigga

Nothing more, nothing less

Student loan emails reminding me I'm in debt

Working at the footlocker tryna save up my checks

Thought if I moved a couple packs it would take care of the rest

But then I turned on the news

And I saw someone I knew

Words at the bottom of the screen

Said he got shot in his neck

Transaction went left, and they left him there wet

I gotta get up outta here dawg cause I could be next

When you blessed, sometimes God gives you a test

And lord know I ain't perfect, but I'm trying my best

I gotta pray

Try my best to stay up out the way

And no matter what they say

You know I gotta stay strong

Know I gotta come home

Live to fit another day

Man I wish I knew

A little faith will get you through

Never let a setback shake you out your move

When your back against the wall

And they all want you to lose

Have a little faith and see it through

Man I wish I knew

A little faith will get you through

Never let a setback shake you out your move

When your back against the wall

And they all want you to lose

Have a little faith and see it through
