Ohhh... yeah
I should have stopped, looked and listened before I proceeded
But caution I threw to the wind
ManyÔÇÖve been placed in my life to help lead me and guide me
But I didnÔÇÖt 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 didnÔÇÖt want to hear them
ShouldaÔÇÖ said what I didnÔÇÖt say
ShouldaÔÇÖ went right but I went left that day
ShouldaÔÇÖ prayed but instead I strayed
ShouldaÔÇÖ gone a different way
ShouldaÔÇÖ listened to my mother
When she said that you were no good for me
ShouldaÔÇÖ listened to my pastors
When they told me turn around and leave you be
ShouldaÔÇÖ 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 didnÔÇÖt bother to see if my people agreed
Maybe I knew what they would say and yet
I didnÔÇÖt control it I kept going for it
When I shouldaÔÇÖ known it wasnÔÇÖt in GodÔÇÖs plan
Had to let go, had I listened before
I wouldÔÇÖve said no from the door
ShouldaÔÇÖ said what I didnÔÇÖt say
ShouldaÔÇÖ went right but I went left that day
ShouldaÔÇÖ stayed but instead I strayed
ShouldaÔÇÖ gone a different way
ShouldaÔÇÖ listened to my mother
When she said that you were no good for me
ShouldaÔÇÖ listened to my pastors
When they told me turn around and leave you be
ShouldaÔÇÖ 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
ShouldaÔÇÖ listened to my mother
When she said that you were no good for me
ShouldaÔÇÖ listened to my pastors
When they told me turn around and leave you be
ShouldaÔÇÖ 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
ShouldaÔÇÖ listened I know I shouldaÔÇÖ listened
But I know that I vow to listen now
ShouldaÔÇÖ listened I know I shouldaÔÇÖ listened
But you donÔÇÖt have to tell me twice I'm going to listen now
ShouldaÔÇÖ listened if only I had listened
But IÔÇÖve learned my lesson now
IÔÇÖm gonna listen now
ShouldaÔÇÖ listened cause I just canÔÇÖt be missing
All the things God has for me
Repeat till end
