I'm not the same like back then
I beat the odds, got even
Growing up, we had nothing
Nightmares in my dream
(If you only knew)
Now we living good
Someone tell me what happened
Made somethin' outa nothing
Walking around, no shoes
Promise we ain't have no clue
Pray to God that I stay true
If only you knew
If only you knew
Tume toka mbali(we came a long away)
Ye eeh
Tuna enda mbali (we going the long way)
Ye ee ehh
If only you knew
What I've been through
We didn't ever dream of this
Some of us didn't make the cut
Waking up to pure bliss
Thank the one who's up above
We didn't ever dream of this
There's so many things we missed
We didn't ever dream of this
Growing up and
Moving up and
Growing up and
Moving up and
Growing up and
Moving up and
Growing up and
Moving up
If only you knew
If only you knew
Tume toka mbali(we came a long away)
Ye eeh
Tuna enda mbali (we going the long way)
Ye ee ehh
If only you knew
What I've been through
You knew
You knew
Yee eee
Yee eee
You knew
You knew
What I've been through
