Uh

Live ˜n learn

Life is a lesson (Life is a lesson!)

And I'm the teacher

First I'm gonna crawl, then I'm gonna walk.
Then I'm gonna stand, then I'm gonna talk.
Then I gotta learn, in order to teach.
Then I gotta burn, in order to reach my (bark bark)

Yo, I see what I see,
Day by day.
Hoping that the lord
Paved my way. (What?)
Have I been forgotten?
Have I forsaken?
Or maybe I'm just wrong with the moves that I been makin'.
Hating others cause they hate me,
Over envy,
Wanna send me,
We used to be friendly.
Think I started off on top?
With multi-platinum ops?
Nah dawg, I started off on the block.
I just did shit to get shit.
Niggas always knew
I was down to hit shit.
That's why I stayed fit
Played with shit,
But it wasn't a game.
First time knocked down,
It wasn't the same.
A whole new world,
Nuttin but our clothes to steal.
Niggas getting' split for real,
Miss a good deal.
They ain't call nobody,
Cause don't nobody care.
They got my back against the wall, fuck it, I'm just scared!

Dawg, it's like this:
When the fall gets tight then,
A nigger might flip.
And a nigger bite quick.
But I stay focused on what's important. (what's that?)
What's important? My family.
Fuckin' with my dawgs, and recordin
I'm callin' to the man upstairs,
œWe all got our own problems! So why the fuck you worried about theirs??
It was a long time ago,
Look away, this'll leave you.
I hear no, speak no, see no evil.
All I can do is teach
What I know,
How I flow,
How I get down,
Where I go.
Maybe what I been through will send you
Somewhere, other than where
Dreams go out the window!
I love my people!
All'a my people.
And god gonna keep me
Callin' my people.
You gotsta live life to the fullest.
It ain't always about the size of the gun, sometimes it's the bullets!

Every day we live and learn
Take it step by step.
We create our own path,
Till there's no life left.
I hold my death off for as long as I can,
Knowin' my man's plotting with the chrome in his hand.
It supposed to be fair!
My niggas get shady over money.
(My nigga!) I'll have to 380 over money.
Crazy over money, can't do without it.
I got other shit to deal with, I'm like, œfuggedaboutit!?
It's the one I don't know but much teach that comes first.
Cause it comes from the thirst of a nigger that's had it the worst.
Like a curse that's to be lifted.
He was there, but he drifted.
Got a call, then he shifted.
Once he found out he was gifted.
And I kicked it from the heart,
And I hope you got it!
It was there from the start,
I just hope you spot it!
This is my blood on paper!
My soul on paper!
Words to live by will leave a hole in the paper!
