Dj Nicholas - Sad Story текст песни

Father, a really appreciate what you have done in my life when
I look at some of the friends that I grew up with them
Some of them aint around anymore but
You, all gave us opportunity but some of us just made a wrong decision
And I thank you for your *mercies God* …
I could have been a sad story, you probably wouldn't know me
I could have been a sad story, but God's purpose was before me
Could have been a sad story, you probably wouldn't know me
I could have been a sad story, but God chose me to give him glory

You coulda read bout me ina de paper
another young man life gone to vapour
You coulda hear about me not as a brave heart
But another body down a de graveyard
You coulda read about me ina de drama
another idle bwoi Die pon de Corna
You coulda sit and watch me pon ya news just another sad blues

I could have been a sad story, you probably wouldn't know me
I could have been a sad story, but God's purpose was before me
I could have been a sad story, you probably wouldn't know me
I could have been a sad story, but God chose me to give him glory

We coulda lock up in a prison, lock up in a jail
Lost ina de prison system cant receive a bail
well detained for years and we cant get a bail

could be hiding from the cops, cant leff a trail
we could be well drugsed out sleeping on the ground
could be unstable, could be unsound
reported as missing and never to be found
could be buried under ground

I could have been a sad story, you probably wouldn't know me
I could have been a sad story, but God's purpose was before me
Could have been a sad story, you probably wouldn't know me
I could have been a sad story, but God chose me to give him glory

a nuff man drop out a school and a nuff man tek up de tool
and a nuff man turn de drugs mule, a nuff a we de devil go to rule and a nuff man spot dem face to face
and a nuff a we almost leff de place and a nuff a we almost lose de race but thank God for Mercy and Grace

I could have been a sad story, you probably wouldn't know me
I could have been a sad story, but God's purpose was before me
I could have been a sad story, God gave you a first chance,
He gave you a next chance so take this opportunity cause there might not be a third chance... sad story fading...
Sad story, probably wouldn't know me, sad story.
