Life lessons

I done been a victim, now I'm in a victory
I ain't worried about you muh'fuckas sticking me
Took a couple L's, yeah, but it's fine
I ain't about to let it happen this time
Had some people try to get the best of me
But ain't nobody done that shit successfully
Took a couple L's, yeah, but it's fine
I ain't bout to let it happen this time

Lesson A
Don't go following blindly and led astray
Remember don't you let opportunity get away
Lesson B
Don't be talking the talk, you wasting your breath
Should only speak when needed, believe it that's more depth
Lesson C
Don't get caught with your cock in your fucking hand
Be lollygagging cause time ain't waiting for any man
Lesson D
Your worth ain't determined by no one else
Accentuate your colors for others and show yourself
They gon' talk about you and they gon' doubt you and they gon' hate you
They gon' say they love you and then they judge you and try to break you
Then they don't forget it, they take the credit and say they made you
Then they try to mend it cause they pretended they could escape you
When if you offended them they ain't finished until they take you
To a point of no return, but they learning and can't mistake you
Now they double teaming, see, cause the demon was once an angel
And he fell from Heaven, he couldn't figure these fucking angles
And it's like the hand of God at your throat and you're fucking strangled
They look in your eyes with the web of lies that'll have you tangled
Then they gon' dispise, don't be suprised when they should thank you
But they don't, most these people ain't bringing shit to the table
They gon' try to play you, say you unstable and try to hang you
It's gon' be some bitches who don't do nothing but try to bang you
It's gon' be some people who feed off evil and try to shank you
When your back's against the wall, they applaud 'em, just tell 'em "Swank you"

I done been a victim, now I'm in a victory
I ain't worried about you muh'fuckas sticking me
Took a couple L's, yeah, but it's fine
I ain't about to let it happen this time
Had some people try to get the best of me
But ain't nobody done that shit successfully
Took a couple L's, yeah, but it's fine
I ain't bout to let it happen this time

Lesson one
This shit ain't worth a penny if it ain't fun
If you ain't happy with what you doing, you better run
Lesson two
See there's thinkers and doers, which one are you?
Self education is instrumental, don't play the fool
Lesson three
Don't you let no one say what you better be
Just put that scope on your target, aiming it steadily
Lesson four
This ain't hard to remember: You want more?
Then put your fucking boots on, time to lace up for war
Don't you get discouraged by negativity, that's the message
See there's bound to be some rubble when sifting through all the wreckage
They say life can be the hardest on people who don't respect it
And the obstacles we facing are merely for higher blessings
There's a silver lining in all our problems, no point in stressing
Gotta have the vision, you gotta find it to stay connected
Make a firm decision, you gotta tell 'em what you expectin'
If it's meaningful, then you gotta stand up, and you protect it
Take the time to build and tell of the towers that you've erected
Life is fickle, you'll end up in a pickle and that's perplexing
Stay on top of all of it, preparation is built for testing
They provoke you, that's why you build a fortress for your possessions
It's a different feeling when you resilient on your direction
This is verbal healing and quite appealing, this my confessions
Be a shark in water but you be careful who you're addressing
The biggest lesson in life is life is simply a lesson

I done been a victim, now I'm in a victory
I ain't worried about you muh'fuckas sticking me
Took a couple L's, yeah, but it's fine
I ain't about to let it happen this time
Had some people try to get the best of me
But ain't nobody done that shit successfully
Took a couple L's, yeah, but it's fine
I ain't bout to let it happen this time
