"LESSONS"

[Hook:]
Nothing in your life's really safe
So cling to what you got, don't take it for granted
Tomorrow's never promised, my friend
So cease the moment 'fore it's too late to grab it (2x)

[Interlude:]
But keep your vision on the low
The wolves be lurking at the door
Make sure you keep your circle close
Just in case it's 'bout to go down

[verse:]
No Montessori, no "Yeezy taught me"
But thinking back to what dad had told me
I never thought it'd amount to something
But here I am, earning all the blessings
No matter how great you think
You're being, always memento mori
And when it comes to your dreams
Then keep your vision at 20/20:
Focused
No bogus, sometimes it's hard to be modest
When your motives are lying in pussy, money and power
Just being honest with myself, I used to think that this was happiness
The more I chase the fame the more I'm being a slave to Lucifer
And she can be so seductive, in a world where success is everything
If you ain't being productive, what's your worth, nigga? Where's your self-esteem?
"Remember '06, remember?
That nigga used to get all the girls
Or Silvan back in November?
His big ass crib's what you wishing for
I saw the envy over your face and saw you drool like a dog in rage
I know you never had anything, I got it for you, follow my ways"
But happiness not defined by what you own out of everything you crave
It's something that you will find by being content with what you have attained
If you got family to fall back on
Maybe some friends and health, that's all
You really need, ain't nothing wrong with wanting more
But appreciate what you've already got
