Lessons lyrics

[Verse 1]

I knew a woman more wonderful than a Disney one

I lost my heart, I just wondered if you could give me one

I hit you back, you know, lately I've had some busy ones

I been getting this money just on my Lizzy ones

And now we're acting like children, it's so pathetic

I was trying to reach out for ages, I need my credit

There's a couple lines in our script I think we should edit

Why you gotta bitch all the time? Just read my message

Shit, fucking hell, I'm such a handful

On one hand I'm pissed, but on the other hand I'm thankful

Times when it was bliss and there were times it was in shambles

Times when it was lit and other times we lit the candles

You're probably reminiscing when you could be hella dissing

Never been the type to be so reckless with decisions

Swear you tried to tell me, but it's like I never listen

And I was meant to share your vision

I was meant to be your rider, put a bit of Henny on my rider

You can stay at home, I'll send a driver

I'll be your provider, no, I'm not around but it's a minor

Cah I don't like the spotlight and you don't like it neither

But that was then and this is now

I was pacing 'round my kitchen like, "This shit is foul"

I done the dirt and then I figured that you'll dig it out

But that's a coward move, I guess you got me figured out

I know you'll never listen now

[Chorus]

You taught me love (You taught me love)

Oh, what a gift (Oh, what a gift)

I know that it's hard (I know that it's hard)

Too hard to forgive

And to be honest, if I were you

I'd be the same way

To be honest, if I were you

Then I'd be unforgiving, too

[Verse 2]

Fast forward now, my nephew's still asking for his Auntie Maya

Guess this is the karma for what I done to Maya

I just stood and let it burn, I couldn't done the fire

Lord, I pray you make it easy, that's my one desire

God loves a trial, I can't even fathom what I probably had you going through

You cannot imagine how I'm sorry, man, I'm showing you

Now I haven't even got the luxury of knowing you

We was even meant to share a seed and let it grow in you

I can't even look you in the eye, that's 'cause of shame

Now you're tryna block me out your mind, that's 'cause of pain

Greatest love I ever knew, I poured it down the drain

Maybe it's the only way we both call it a day

You gave me the world and then I gave you disrespect

Hand on my heart, this is my biggest of regrets

Thought I'd say it here than rather fling it in a text

Until you're ready to forgive I'm always wishing you the best but

[Chorus]

You taught me love (You taught me love)

Oh, what a gift (Oh, what a gift)

I know that it's hard (I know that it's hard)

Too hard to forgive

And to be honest, if I were you

I'd be the same way

To be honest, if I were you

Then I'd be unforgiving, too

You taught me love (You taught me love)

Oh, what a gift (Oh, what a gift)

I know that it's hard (I know that it's hard)

Too hard to forgive

And to be honest, if I were you

I'd be the same way

To be honest, if I were you

Then I'd be unforgiving, too
