Luyện nghe bài hát If I

If I hadn't been a quiet kid
If I hadn't a nerd, wouldn't have met with him
If we hadn't we'd be the best of friends
That preferred the spoken to the toke and binge

If momma hadn't died I was young
Would me and sis been so tight jump?
If dad hadn't his mind to a disease
Would I be up askin' ya'll to notice me?

In the dark times, didn't where the path went
I was close to the edge like Grand Flash said
It was hands of my that held me back
Yes, without I'd MJ keep slidin' backwards

Or be a hypocrite like others have been
If and the other hadn't happened
Don't that I'd ever been Brer Rabbit
how many if's between hero and has-been?

If I, if I, if I had known
That I be a lamb to the slaughter
Now I
If I, if I, if I had known
I know, I bet it makes me stronger

Now I know, now I
Now I know, know,
Now I know, now I
Now I know, know,

If I hadn't up in the 80's
Experiencing the things that made me
Would I still be standing center
Trying to innovate new ways to

If hadn't turned off Mork and Mindy
To us divorce was pending
Would him and me have spent 23 years in a frenzy
Moving back and forth such forceful energy?

I remember when I was a baby
Lying there alone on my casing
Upset already I feel the aging
The urge to return was

And maybe I'm still and need to
Cry a little harder for the world of play
Stop looking back on these day dreams
Sing with me if you feel the same way

If I, if I, if I had only
That I would be a to the slaughter
Now I
If I, if I, if I had only
I know, I bet it only makes me

Now I know, now I
Now I know, know,
Now I know, now I
Now I know, know,

If I had known what was unplanned
If I had known the was in a loved one's hand
If I had known of the injury
If I had the altar was meant for me

But now I know nobody can events
And now I there's cracks in the picket fence
Now I know that else exists
And now I a life can be built from this

If I had known emotions would still
If I had known that time wouldn't heal the
If I had known the of the injury
If I had known the altar meant for me

Now I know there's treasure hidden in these
Now I there's presence in an empty yard
Now I know what it took for me to
But now I know to go to become alive

If I, if I, if I had known
That I would be a lamb to the
Now I
If I, if I, if I had only
I know, I bet it only me stronger

Now I know, now I
Now I know, know,
Now I know, now I
Now I know, know,
