Uh, I wonder what, alright, let's go
I wonder what if, I grew up without a dad
I know mommas do their best, but without a man I'd be bad
I wonder what if, that was me on TV
Wrong place, wrong time, it could have been me
I wonder, what if, I played ball in the league
My pride already a monster, thank God, He said not for me
I wonder, what if, I had cash to the ceiling
It sounds like a dream, but probably meant I was dealing
I wonder, what if, I never met my wife
Be half the man that I am, I'll put that on my life
I wonder, what if, I knew at midnight tonight
That Jesus coming back, like a thief in the night, I wonder
What if, what if, what if, what if, I wonder
What if, what if, what if, what if, I wonder
What if, what if, what if, what if, I wonder
What if, what if, what if just one thing had changed
My life would't be the same
I wonder what if, I was told that I could
Instead of being told all the things I couldn't do
Spending all my life, always having to prove
No telling who I'd be, but God still made good
I wonder what if, they got the waiver through
Now I salute, wearing fatigues and boots
I wonder, what if, He never called my name
Would I be like them people He said, don't judge, don't judge
What if, what if, what if, we traded shoes
Would you see me the same way, I'm looking at you
I wonder what if, I had a year to live
Would I doubt God, or would I still praise Him, I wonder
What if, what if, what if, what if, I wonder
What if, what if, what if, what if, I wonder
What if, what if, what if, what if, I wonder
What if, what if, what if just one thing had changed
My life would't be the same
I wonder, what if, Dr. King wasn't killed
Being Black would be more, than hip-hop and grills
I wonder what if, I said yes instead of no
Where would I be, only God would ever know
I wonder, what if, I wasn't born in America
Would I be so quick, to bash on America
I wonder what if, people loved like Jesus
Bet we wouldn't be seeing all this hate come between us, I wonder
What if, what if, what if, what if, I wonder
What if, what if, what if, what if, I wonder
What if, what if, what if, what if, I wonder
What if, what if, what if just one thing had changed
My life would't be the same
