I Know Where I've Been (Glee Cast Version)

There's a light in the darkness

Though the night is black as my skin

There's a light burning bright

Showing me the way

But I know where I've been

There's a cry in the distance

It's a voice that comes from deep within

There's a cry asking, why?

I pray the answer's up ahead

'Cause I know where I've been

There's a road we've been traveling

Lost so many along the way

But the riches will be plenty

Worth the price, the price we had to pay

There's a dream in the future

There's a struggle that we have yet to win

And there's pride in my heart

'Cause I know where I'm going, yes, I do

And I know where I've been, yeah

There's a road we must travel

There's a promise we must make

Oh, but the riches will be plenty

Worth the risk and the chances that we take

There's a dream in the future

There's a struggle that we have yet to win

Use that pride in our hearts to lift us up until tomorrow

'Cause just to sit still would be a sin

(I know it, I know it, I know where I'm going)

Lord knows, I know where I've been

Oh, when we win, I'll give thanks to my God

'Cause I know where I've been
