Lyrics
If I could go back, yeah, I would, it's a lot of situations
I could've did some good, I'd be the first to listen
Slowly to speak, can't prepare for the trouble that's ahead of me
Change a whole lot of feelings
Greeting you with love, man, I don't want nothing
Built my rep as a thug, Lord, hear my cry
I had to change my fate, deal with reality
Cause I still make mistakes, saying that you're sorry
Used to be enough, why we still don't deal
When we used to hang tough, saying it don't matter
But my heart ain't right, past haunting me
Hard to sleep some nights, Lord, take it away
Make me all new, past is the mountain that's between me and you
Died for my sins, the Bible say so
I could hold you to your word if I only let go
If I had the chance, dear Lord, I'd take it all back
And start all over again
If I had the chance, dear Lord, I'd take it all back
And start all over again
Take it all back and start all over again
Take it all back and start all over again
If I had the chance, dear Lord, I'd take it all back
And start all over again
If I had the chance, dear Lord, I'd take it all back
And start all over again
Take it all back and start all over again
Take it all back and start all over again
A better son to my mom, she never had to worry
And to my dad, that's another story
Brothers and sisters, I love y'all to death
Sorry for the times, only thought about myself
And to that neighbor how I ran across the yard
Girls was watching, had to be hard
And to my friends, I met along the way
Some things weren't right, but we're here to this day
And to Miss Davis, never gave up on me
Showed me the love when I thought I didn't want it
And to my kin, talking about my cousin
Me and Pookie did it when we had no dreams of it
To my nephews and nieces, could've showed better
Watched me through the struggle, trying to put it all together
And to my kids, I show a better way
Pray that you listen, don't make the same mistakes
And to my wife, don't mean to be so hard
Seen the shining light and I'm soul so dark
Miss a lot of funerals on my way
Praying for my family every God-given day
Lord, thank you for the things I've been through
Let me be a testimony of the things you can do
Live and let live what the Lord has just begun
What I did, I already done
If I had the chance, dear Lord
I'd take it all back and start all over again
If I had the chance, dear Lord
I'd take it all back and start all over again
Take it all back and start all over again
Take it all back and start all over again
If I had the chance, dear Lord
I'd take it all back and start all over again
If I had the chance, dear Lord
I'd take it all back and start all over again
Take it all back and start all over again
Take it all back and start all over again
Sometimes I wish I could go back
Sometimes I wish I could go back
Sometimes I wish I could go back
Sometimes I wish I could go back
Sometimes I wish I could go back Sometimes I wish I could go back Sometimes I wish I could go back
and start all over again
