[Featuring Dyme] Live and learn Life is a lesson And I'm gonna teach it First I'm gonna crawl, then I'm gonna walk Then I'm gonna stand, then I'm gonna talk But I gotta learn in order to teach Then I gotta burn in order to reach My niggaz Yo, I see what I see day by day Hoping that the Lord will pave my way (What!) 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 They wanna send me, when we use to be friendly Think I started off on top with two platinum albums? Naw dog, I started off from the block I just did shit and did shit (Ugh!) Niggaz always knew I was down to hit shit so I stayed rich (What!) Played with shit but it wasn't a game; first time locked down (Ugh!) It wasn't the same, the whole fuckin' world, couldn't quite close the steel Niggaz get split for real, miss some good meal (Damn) Called nobody but don't nobody care They got my back against the walls Fuck it, I'm just here 1- First I'm gonna crawl, then I'm gonna walk Then I'm gonna stand, then I'm gonna talk But I gotta learn in order to teach Then I gotta burn in order to reach First I'm gonna crawl, then I'm gonna walk Then I'm gonna stand, then I'm gonna talk But I gotta learn in order to teach Then I gotta burn in order to reach My niggaz Dog, it's like this: when the fog is tight thick, a nigga might flip And a nigga write quick, but I stay focus to what's important (What's that?)
