John Legend - History Has Its Eyes On You Lyrics
Whoa...
Whoa... Oooh
Oo-oooh
I was younger than you are now
I led my men into a massacre
Witnessed their deaths firsthand
Oh, I made every mistake
I felt the shame rise in me
And even now I lie awake
Knowing history, history
History has its eyes on me
History, history, history, aaah
History has its eyes on me
Ahhh
Let me tell you what I wish I'd known
When I was young and dreamed of glory
Don't nobody have control
Who lives, who dies, who tells your story
I know that we can win
I know that greatness lies in you
But remember from here on in
History, history
History has its eyes on you
History, history, history, aaah
History has its eyes on you
History, history, history
Ahhh
Whoa...
Whoa... (whoa)
Whoa...
History has its eyes on you
History, history, history (whoa)
Aaah
History has its eyes on you (oooh)
History (ahhh)
History has its eyes on you (oooh, ooh)
History, history
Oooh, yeah

John Legend History Has Its Eyes On You Comments
This version is disgustingly underrated. This is such a good piece of music that has not received its adequate share of attention.
It is so emotional and I love it
Well done John
John and Kelly need to do a version of it’s quiet uptown
holy hamilton this is amazing
I love John Legend, but shouldn't be singing as John Lauren's?*sly smile*
It's so good. I can listen to this song over and over
Church. Take me to church. This is brilliant.
i love u john
Hamilton+John Legend= Perfection
Name Legendary
This is my favorite out off all the songs, it just soothes my ears
u r good but I'm I rather listen to the regular one...sorry...this isn't a bad comment u r great just this doesn't really get my attention like Lin manuel Miranda did with the regular version sorry
Omg wow! Things song is so soulful and well done! I felt every word
Sorry just don’t like the sound of the music you use
wow. this is amazing
this video is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is great but it should be played in a minor to give it that sadder tone it sounds way too happy for telling someone how you led people to die
tru tho
Disagree. This is a brilliant re-telling (re-singing?) of this song as a hymn. This is that "Great getting up Sunday morning" gospel, and I think it's perfect in a major.
Suzanne Roberts Same. Sounds like Something So Great Inside
It’s the same key as Glory, isn’t it?
Anyone only realize it's john legend when the video started and dropped their jaws 😱😄
MEEEEEEEE
1 dislike out of 11,000 people... Instant respect
This is JUST AS emotional as the original but with a much more soulful twist and I LOVE IT. It sounds more like it could be a Civil War hymn rather than a Revolution War hymn. Love it. I've not been the biggest fan of much of the Hamilton Mixtape but I think this may be my favorite, along with You'll Be Back. So good.
This is amazing. It so slow and I love to just close my eyes and jam out on my school bus 🙃
AMAZING
Too slow for my liking but all your other music is great
John please release the song shoes from the LeBron nike commercial. PLEASE THAT SONG WAS GREAT AND MANY PEOPLE WOULD AGREE
ohohohohohohohohohohohohoooo yeah.
john legend? now we're TALKING.
John did an amazing job with this song!
👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
