OUT OF EDEN lyrics : "Shoulda' Listeden"

Ohhh... yeah

I should have stopped, looked and listened before I proceeded

But caution I threw to the wind
Many've been placed in my life to help lead me and guide
me

But I didn't want to talk to them
So I ignored their advice and I tried to disguise pain from you
and all the things you did

The wrong road was chosen my heart has been broken
Cause I didn't want to hear them


Shoulda' said what I didn't say
Shoulda' went right but I went left that day
Shoulda' prayed but instead I strayed

Shoulda' gone a different way

Shoulda' listened to my mother

When she said that you were no good for me
Shoulda' listened to my pastors
When they told me turn around and leave you be

Shoulda' listened to my sisters
When they said that I was too blind to see
But I see the light somehow

And I vow to listen now

I had the chance to advance and it seemed like the best

Opportunity that I could get
I didn't bother to see if my people agreed
Maybe I knew what they would say and yet

I didn't control it I kept going for it
When I shoulda' known it wasn't in God's plan
Had to let go, had I listened before

I would've said no from the door

Shoulda' said what I didn't say

Shoulda' went right but I went left that day
Shoulda' stayed but instead I strayed
Shoulda' gone a different way


Shoulda' listened to my mother
When she said that you were no good for me

Shoulda' listened to my pastors
When they told me turn around and leave you be
Shoulda' listened to my sisters

When they said that I was too blind to see
But I see the light somehow
And I vow to listen now


Shoulda' listened to my mother
When she said that you were no good for me

Shoulda' listened to my pastors
When they told me turn around and leave you be
Shoulda' listened to my sisters

When they said that I was too blind to see
But I see the light somehow
And I vow to listen now


Shoulda' listened I know I shoulda' listened
But I know that I vow to listen now

Shoulda' listened I know I shoulda' listened
But you don't have to tell me twice I'm going to
listen now

Shoulda' listened if only I had listened
But I've learned my lesson now
I'm gonna listen now


Shoulda' listened cause I just can't be missing
All the things God has for me

Repeat till end
