The Hardway DC Talk

[Chorus: Kevin Max & Michael Tait]
Some people gotta learn the hard way
I guess I'm the kind of guy that has to find out for myself
I had to learn the hard way, Father
I'm on my knees and I'm cryin' for help (For help, for help)
Ooh ooh-ooh

[Verse 1: TobyMac]
Now I've been high and I've been low
I've been some places that you will not go
I never thought there would come the day
When I wished I never woulda lived this way

[Pre-Chorus: Michael Tait]
But I've been searchin' for a long, long time
I thought the Devil was a friend of mine
I turned my back on everything that was true
And wasted years that belong to You

[Chorus: Kevin Max & Michael Tait]
Some people gotta learn the hard way (Ooh ooh-ooh)
I guess I'm the kinda guy that has to find out for myself
I had to learn the hard way, Father (Ooh ooh-ooh)
I'm on my knees and I'm cryin' for help (For help, for help)

[Verse 2: TobyMac]
It took so long for me to see
That I'm a victim of a nature and me
Left to myself I realize
I am a maker of my own demise
