Luyện nghe bài hát If I

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

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

In the times, didn't know where the path went
I was close to the edge like Grand Master Flash
It was hands of my friends that held me
Yes, without them I'd MJ slidin' backwards

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

If I, if I, if I had only
I would be a lamb to the slaughter
Now I
If I, if I, if I had only
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 various that made me
Would I be standing center stage
to innovate new ways to demonstrate?

If mommy-daddy hadn't turned off Mork and
To us divorce was pending
Would him and me have spent these 23 years in a
back and forth with such forceful energy?

I remember I was a little baby
Lying there on my pillow casing
Upset already I feel the aging
The to return was debilitating

And maybe I'm still afraid and to
Cry a harder for the world of play things
Stop looking on these silly day dreams
Sing along with me if you feel the way

If I, if I, if I had only
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,

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

But now I know can predict events
And now I know there's cracks in the fence
Now I know that something else
And now I know a life can be from this

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

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

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,
