Uh 
Live and learn 
Life's a lesson (life is a lesson) 
And I'm the teacher 

 [bad word] ] 
Dyme enters [bad word] after first verse 
First I'm gonna crawl, uh (crawl) 
Then I'm gonna walk, uh huh (walk) 
Then I'm gonna stand, uh huh (stand) 
Then I'm gonna talk, uh (talk) 
Then I gotta learn, what (learn) 
In order to teach, (teach) 
Then I gotta burn (burn) 
In order to reach (reach), my niggas 

[Verse 1] 
Yo, I see what I see, day by day 
Hopin that the Lord can, pave my way 
Have I been forgotten, have I forsaken 
Or maybe I'm just wrong with the moves that I've been makin 
Hatin others cuz they hate me, over envy 
Wanna send me, when we used to be friendly 
Think I started off on top? With multi platinum albums? 
Naw dog, I started off on the block 
I just did [bad word] to get [bad word] 
Niggas always knew I was down to hit [bad word] 
That's why I stay wit [bad word] 
Played with [bad word]  but it wasn't a game 
First time locked down, wasn't the same 
whole new world, nothin but close to steel 
Niggas gettin split for real, miss a good deal 
They aint call nobody, cuz don't nobody care 
They got my back against the wall, [bad word] it I'm just here 

 [bad word] 2X]

[Verse 2] 
Dog it's like this, when the fog is type thick 
[bad word] might flip, and a [bad word] bite quick 
But I stay focused on what's important 
Supportin my family, [bad word] with my dogs and reportin 
According to the man upstairs, we all got our own problems 
So why the [bad word] you worryin about theirs 
It was a long time ago, look awake, cuz he'll leave you 
I hear none, speak none, see none, evil 
All I can do is teach you, what I know 
How I flow, how I get down, where I go 
Maybe what I been through, will send you 
Somewhere, other then where, dreams all out the window 
I love my people, all of my people 
And God gon keep me callin my people 
You gots to live life to the fullest 
It aint always about the size of the gun, sometimes it's the bullet 

 [bad word] 2X]

[Verse 3] 
Every day we live and learn, take it step by step 
And we create our own path, until there's no life left 
I hold my death, off for as long as I can 
Knowin my man, is plottin with the chrome in his hand 
Supposed to be fam, but niggas get shady over money 
My [bad word]  pull out the 380 over money 
Crazy over money, can't do without it 
I got other [bad word] to deal with, I'm like forget about it 
It's the one I don't know but must teach [bad word] first 
Because [bad word] with the thirst of a [bad word] that tatted the worst 
It's like a curse that's to be lifted, he was there but he gripped it 
Got a call and he shifted, once he found out he was gifted 
Gotta kick it from the heart, and I hope you got it 
It was there from the start, I just hope you spot it 
Cuz it's my blood on paper, my soul on paper 
Words to live by will leave a hole in the paper
