Different Times Lyrics
[00:20.99] I've been in some hard times
[00:23.43] I seen a lot of good times
[00:25.88] But everyday I count my blessings this way
[00:29.21] 'Cause I know that every day's a different day
[00:32.66] My friends can change but His will never change
[00:35.45] And I knew there would be some time
[00:43.56] When I would second guess my mind
[00:49.62] So I kept on walking, kept on striving
[00:55.15] Kept on singing and guess who showed up
[01:00.23] As I walked down the street one day
[01:03.92] I thought I heard a brother say
[01:06.34] Living in bad conditions can make you feel like no one
[01:10.70] As long as I, that's why I always try
[01:13.90] And do my best to search inside
[01:18.91] But I knew there would be a day
[01:23.92] When I had to look the other way
[01:28.83] So I close my eyes and kept on pushin'
[01:35.59] I just kept looking and guess who showed up
[01:40.78] I told myself one day to fall on my knees and pray
[01:46.77] And never listen to no one if they can't be true to you
[01:51.75] No one should spend precious time living for material love
[01:56.70] His money, no money no money, can make me happy
[02:01.13] Now it looks a lot clearer outside, 'cause I'm using my eyes
[02:10.95] I close my eyes and kept on pushin'
[02:15.96] I just stopped looking and guess who showed up
[02:21.79] My friend won't let you down
[02:26.79] He's always been around
[02:31.50] That's one thing I know for sure
[02:36.39] Even when I'm wrong, He's right at my door
[02:40.36] He'll never ignore
[02:42.34] Yes, I got a lotta things to say, I can't say them in all one day
[02:47.39] I'll take no credit for the blessings that He's given to me
[02:52.49] Without Him I know that Saadiq could never, ever, ever be
[02:58.13] When I thought it couldn't get no better
[03:04.80] Just when I thought it was almost over
[03:09.56] Oh, no
[03:11.59] I close my eyes and kept on pushin'
[03:17.57] I just stopped looking and guess who showed up
[03:23.83]
[03:31.69] I close my eyes and kept on pushin'
[03:36.84] I just stopped looking and guess who showed up
[03:44.30] I told myself one day, to fall on my knees and pray
[03:51.71] I close my eyes and kept on pushin'
[03:57.59] I just stopped looking and guess who showed up
[04:02.41] I told myself one day, to fall on my knees and pray
[04:10.72] I close my eyes and kept on pushin'
[04:17.20] I just stopped looking and guess who showed up
[04:22.74] I told myself one day, to fall on my knees and pray
[04:31.35] I close my eyes and kept on pushin'
[04:36.50] I just stopped looking and guess who showed up
[04:43.22] My friend won't let you down
