ThingsI’veLearned.

[Hook: Lona]
There's some things I've learned
There's some things I've learned
There's some things I've learned

[Verse 1: Lona]
Like young fools become old fools, and there wouldn't be no new school if we had never had no old school
And my music could be like soul food, and you might stop making poor decisions if I told you
Word to the wise, always listen to the wise word
You can always learn from someone else and them from you so vice verse
And you might not have to feel my pain if I expose all my hurt
Cousin say stop loving all these girls but that's just how I work
And we all gifted souls, we all got dreams of getting gold
But not everybody makes it, not the one who stops for air
And not the one that's racing, it's more about pacing cause all it takes is patience
Heart and a little bit of talent, whatever your heart desires
I promise you can have it
Did you know that it's a talent to know you don't have talent?
And just cause you could rhyme don't make you a rapper
And just cause you could speak don't make you a MC
And just cause you keep it real don't mean you could be me

[Bridge: Lona]
(Harmonizes)

[Hook: Lona]
There's some things I've learned
There's some things I've learned
There's some things I've learned

[Verse 2: Lona]
Like you'll never fit in, even if
They cut you off at ya ankles and ya neck
And it'll never be enough for them to love you, even once you get a million dollar check
And nothing ever goes as planned so don't get mad when it ain't like you expect
Just cause yall hang out, it don't mean that yall friends
Just cause you sincere don't mean that they care
And just cause you look good don't mean you gone succeed
And just cause you ranked ahead of me, in our class don't mean, you gone have inauguration and give a speech
And that all the things that I've learned just a few of the things I need
Just cause it say right turn don't mean it's the right way to go
What's the right way?
I mean I really don't know, I don't even think my great grandpa knew and he dead and gone
They say life is just a game, I keep getting played all along
Or am I playing it all wrong?
Forget it, I'll just play along
I'll just play along

[Verse 3/Outro: Lona]
Everyone got they idea of what love is
Me? I stopped trying to figure it out
Cause every time I give it a try I end up without
Girls don't want love till 20 something, 4 years till I could settle down
And one more thing too, people don't care about you
And if you one of the few, then I feel for you
I don't know what to tell you to do, or how to get through or how to improve
My best advice is to find you, be true, and be you
All i can do is make my message see through
Cause I'm a born sinner still learning so how ima teach you?
And how ima preach to?
Young Gifted Souls know the world needs you
So how ima teach you?
And how ima preach to?
Know the world needs you
All the things that I've learned just a few of the things I need
All the things that I've learned just a few of the things I need
