Where Was I to Know
Unveiling the Shadows: Brother Cane's Journey through Redemption and Revelation
Lyrics
How many times have I said to myself,
Reflecting on past experiences and thoughts.
This means nothing to me?
Expressing a lack of emotional connection or significance.
What doesn't kill, only makes me stronger,
Embracing the idea that challenges contribute to personal strength.
So comforting to believe.
Finding comfort in beliefs that provide solace.
But in these strange days I find,
Sensing a detachment or disconnection from one's own life.
That I'm a ghost, in my own life.
Feeling like a mere observer in one's existence.
Can you forgive these blood-stained hands,
Seeking forgiveness for past actions, possibly harmful or regrettable.
And trust the scars have healed out of sight?
Hoping that wounds and emotional scars are no longer visible.
Where was I to know
Pondering about the lack of awareness in a situation.
You were running out of reasons?
Realizing that someone was facing difficulties without awareness.
Afraid to just let go,
Feeling reluctant or fearful of releasing control or attachment.
We were crashing into pieces.
Acknowledging a relationship falling apart.
But where was I, where was I to know?
Expressing ignorance or unawareness in a challenging situation.
And I'm so tired of feeling sick and tired;
Being exhausted and emotionally drained.
Shattered to my very soul.
Feeling broken to the core.
A dying light in a coal black sky;
Describing a fading hope or optimism in a bleak situation.
I'm too young to feel so old.
Feeling prematurely aged due to life's hardships.
With hungry voices, we stand in a circle,
Facing judgment or scrutiny from others.
Chalked upon the floor.
Waiting for redemption or a positive change.
We're waiting for grace; is it all in vain?
Questioning the worthiness of the waiting and hoping.
Or do we count the ways once more?
Contemplating whether efforts are futile or meaningful.

Realizing that someone was facing difficulties without awareness (repeated).
Afraid to just let go,
Feeling reluctant or fearful of releasing control or attachment (repeated).
We were crashing into pieces.
Acknowledging a relationship falling apart (repeated).
But where was I to know?
Expressing ignorance or unawareness in a challenging situation (repeated).
I'm humbled by your patience.
Recognizing and appreciating someone's patience.
In time, the spirit grows.
Believing that over time, resilience and strength develop.
Will bring me to your garden.
Anticipating a positive outcome or connection.
But where was I, where was I to know?
Expressing ignorance or lack of awareness in a situation (repeated).
