The Lesson

Verse 1
The Lesson , Divide and conquer is what they did
Been lying to your face since you was a kid
Ok, now we know
Turn on solution mode
They kill us when we young
Scared to see us old
Scared to see us bold
I propose , we get together
Whoever disrespecting we don’t fuck with them no more (fuck em )
If they don’t want us there
Hell naw we won’t go
If they don’t want us there
Hell naw we won’t go
We teach our own
We build our own
We work around the world
Bring that bread back home
Ain't nobody coming back
To save Us
Everything that we need
Is In Us
They got ChinaTown
They got Lil Mexico
Korean hair store
Arab got the Texaco
We reppin for the block
Posted up on avenues
They laughing to the bank
While they count they revenues

Chorus
I hide my wings
So they can’t see my status
Up above the word
Somewhere floating in the stratus
Fear is only real when yo mind give it power
Danger is for real like a lemon slice sour
Often add sugar , lemonade to devour
Everybody sound good when they sangning in the shower
Careful what you take
Watch what you receive
Always stay alert
Second guess what you believe
The Lesson

Verse 2
Calculating calculations
Well what does that mean
Divide my thoughts by my hustle
Til the quotient is green
Emotional scene
Living outside of yo means
Add it all up and the average is mean
Shoulda stayed in the hood
But you wanna be clean
Shoulda stayed in the house
But you wanna be seen
The phylum the same , the class is not (woo)
We different lets start from the top
Nose Bleed or the skybox
You see the difference
They said I never would
So I , i be the difference
Still Riding hood , Robin Hood in my hood
Since you know everythang
Gone apply it like you should

They got ChinaTown
They got Lil Mexico
Korean hair store
Arab got the Texaco
We reppin for the block
Posted up on avenues
They laughing to the bank
While they count they revenues

Chorus
I hide my wings
So they can’t see my status
Up above the word
Somewhere floating in the stratus
Fear is only real when yo mind give it power
Danger is for real like a lemon slice sour
Often add sugar , lemonade to devour
Everybody sound good when they sangning in the shower
Careful what you take
Watch what you receive
Always stay alert
Second guess what you believe
The Lesson

Bridge
A man right now we too loyal
We too loyal to the system
We too loyal to they way of thinking
We too loyal to turning to the other cheek
We too loyal to one hustle
This ain't the only way to get it man
A look if we gone win
Everybody gotta put in
Everybody gotta do they part man
Stay in yo lane, get yo grind up man
We can do it , but if we gone do it
We gone have to do it together
A go head , lets get up man
We on ! Gone !

Chorus
I hide my wings
So they can’t see my status
Up above the word
Somewhere floating in the stratus
Fear is only real when yo mind give it power
Danger is for real like a lemon slice sour
Often add sugar , lemonade to devour
Everybody sound good when they sangning in the shower
Careful what you take
Watch what you receive
Always stay alert
Second guess what you believe
I hide my wings
So they can’t see my status
Up above the word
Somewhere floating in the stratus
Fear is only real when yo mind give it power
Danger is for real like a lemon slice sour
Often add sugar , lemonade to devour
Everybody sound good when they sangning in the shower
Careful what you take
Watch what you receive
Always stay alert
Second guess what you believe
