Where I've Been (我在哪里) (Album Version) - Mary J. Blige (玛丽·布莱姬)/Eve[00:00:00]

To all the youth in the world that thinks nobody understands[00:00:01]

Well I understand that[00:00:08]

It's been hard for me[00:00:11]

Trying strugglin' in the streets[00:00:13]

But where I've been- Is no longer where I'm at[00:00:16]

And where I'm going- Is not where I'm stoppin' at[00:00:18]

It's been hard for me[00:00:22]

Trying strugglin' in the streets[00:00:24]

But where I've been- Is no longer where I'm at[00:00:26]

And where I'm going- Is not where I'm stoppin' at[00:00:29]

I grew up as a 70's baby[00:00:32]

Brought up in poverty and sin[00:00:35]

Makin' jokes at the crazy lady[00:00:37]

Never cared how she was dealin' within[00:00:40]

I knew all the words to[00:00:43]

Micheal Jackson's album as a kid[00:00:44]

And when it came to the biggest crusher[00:00:48]

No he wasn't my man[00:00:51]

At the age of seven years old[00:00:54]

A strange thing happened to me[00:00:56]

Before I even saw[00:00:59]

My life had flashed before me[00:01:02]

And I've got the mark to show[00:01:04]

And it became a thang of beauty[00:01:07]

So I gotta let you know[00:01:10]

That my life, that my life[00:01:12]

It's been hard for me[00:01:16]

Trying strugglin' in the streets[00:01:17]

But where I've been- Is no longer where I'm at[00:01:20]

And where I'm going- Is not where I'm stoppin' at[00:01:23]

It's been hard for me[00:01:26]

Trying strugglin' in the streets[00:01:28]

But where I've been- Is no longer where I'm at[00:01:31]

And where I'm going- Is not where I'm stoppin' at[00:01:33]

It's been hard for me[00:01:37]

Trying strugglin' in the streets[00:01:39]

But where I've been- Is no longer where I'm at[00:01:42]

And where I'm going- Is not where I'm stoppin' at[00:01:44]

Now mama's workin' hard all day[00:01:47]

And she said this before she left home[00:01:50]

Take care of your little brother[00:01:53]

Have the place cleaned when I get home[00:01:55]

All these priorities[00:01:58]

Me and Tanya had to learn to be grown[00:02:00]

But at the time for me[00:02:03]

Being grown had seemed so lone[00:02:05]

Woke up and I'm seventeen[00:02:09]

With nothing going for me[00:02:11]

Except the fact that I sing[00:02:14]

You know it hurts so much[00:02:17]

From all the sights that I've seen[00:02:20]

From abusin' the hole in trust[00:02:22]

You probably couldn't take some of things[00:02:25]

That I've lived in my life[00:02:28]

It's been hard for me[00:02:31]

Trying strugglin' in the streets[00:02:33]

But where I've been- Is no longer where I'm at[00:02:35]

And where I'm going- Is not where I'm stoppin' at[00:02:38]

It's been hard for me[00:02:41]

Trying strugglin' in the streets[00:02:43]

But where I've been- Is no longer where I'm at[00:02:46]

And where I'm going- Is not where I'm stoppin' at[00:02:49]

It's been hard for me[00:02:53]

Trying strugglin' in the streets[00:02:54]

But where I've been- Is no longer where I'm at[00:02:57]

And where I'm going- Is not where I'm stoppin' at[00:02:59]

It's hard and the street's a jungle I'm telling you, I'm telling you[00:03:02]

Especially with your pretty colors I'm telling you, I'm telling you[00:03:07]

So stay low and keep it humble I'm telling you, I'm telling you[00:03:12]

Black women hold it down, keep your feet on the ground[00:03:18]

Black men keep searching and you'll be found[00:03:21]

It's been hard for me[00:03:24]

Trying strugglin' in the streets[00:03:26]

But where I've been- Is no longer where I'm at[00:03:29]

And where I'm going- Is not where I'm stoppin' at[00:03:32]

It's been hard for me[00:03:35]

Trying strugglin' in the streets[00:03:37]

But where I've been- Is no longer where I'm at[00:03:40]

And where I'm going- Is not where I'm stoppin' at[00:03:42]

In this world of continuous b******t and full clips[00:03:45]

Seems all we have to pass down is being useless[00:03:48]

Broken homes, babies all alone, parent's never there[00:03:51]

No food, no clothes to wear, anger everywhere[00:03:53]

Ain't no values being taught, no productive thoughts[00:03:56]

Jealousy rules the world, take sh*t at any cost[00:03:59]

Gotta change our state of life, make it worth livin'[00:04:02]

God gave us voices to speak and that's our way of givin'[00:04:04]

It's so much bigger than the furs and the jewels[00:04:07]

What about encouragin' the youth to do well[00:04:09]

What about givin' back- what about unifying[00:04:12]

Sh*t we all black- get it together[00:04:15]

Everybody's got their trials and tribulations[00:04:18]

Learn to change the negative to positive situations[00:04:20]

Don't hold the lessons that you learn[00:04:24]

Pass it on and except the blessings that could earn[00:04:25]

It's been hard for me[00:04:29]

Trying strugglin' in the streets[00:04:31]

But where I've been- Is no longer where I'm at[00:04:33]

And where I'm going- Is not where I'm stoppin' at[00:04:36]

It's been hard for me[00:04:40]

Trying strugglin' in the streets[00:04:41]

But where I've been- Is no longer where I'm at[00:04:44]

And where I'm going- Is not where I'm stoppin' at[00:04:47]

It's been hard for me[00:04:50]

Trying strugglin' in the streets[00:04:52]

But where I've been- Is no longer where I'm at[00:04:55]

And where I'm going- Is not where I'm stoppin' at[00:04:58]

It's been hard for me[00:05:01]

Trying strugglin' in the streets[00:05:03]
