I've got this darkness in my soul
Don't see the light when I’m wide awake
I'm sick of working for no ends
You see, the greed made me feel hate
And there’s no turning back now
Keep running from my past
Will the feeling always last?

I don't think you know me, know me no (no, no, no)
You don't know my life, my heart, my soul, no (no, no, no)
If you've seen the things I've seen (no, no, no)
If you've seen the things I've seen (no, no, no)
Seen the things I seen

Oh no (no, no, no)
Don't know the tears I've cried (no)
If you've seen the things I've seen
If you've seen the things I've seen
Oh no
Standing 'til I die
If you've seen the things I've seen
If you've seen the things I've seen
Seen the things I seen

My God, I lost a a lot of love
Could see the pain in my momma's face
A daughter hanging from this earth
She got ’em scars she don’t deserve
And there's no turning back now
We keep running from our past
Well, the fear, it always last

I don't think you know me, know me, no
You don't know my life, my heart, my soul, no
If you've seen the things I've seen
If you've seen the things I've seen
Seen the things I've seen

Oh no (no, no, no)
Don't know the tears I’ve cried (no)
If you've seen the things I've seen
If you've seen the things I've seen
Oh no
Standing 'til I die
If you've seen the things I've seen
If you've seen the things I've seen

Tell me how to feel
Tell me this ain't real
Tell me how to feel
I grew up as a teen

If you've seen the things I've seen
If you've seen the things I've seen
