Lyrics

LESSONS

[Intro]

I been taking singing lessons (Ooh)

(Yo, shut the fuck up, motherfuckers wanna hear you spit that shit, son)

I been, yeah (Now, this HOMECOURT, man)

I been taking singing lessons (We ain't tryna hear that shit)

Bitch (Stop that shit, son)

Yeah (We tryna hear you spit that shit, son), yeah

[Verse 1]

I sound like Marvin straight

I been healin' all my wounds, I do a scar a day

Motherfuckers got the juice, but not from concentration

That's from dick-sucking, quick bucking

Me, I really built something

Bitch, I make 'em feel somethin'

Fruits of my labor in my favor, I might peel somethin'

I been in the dark too long

I been in the dark too long, ooh

Starvin', heart enormous

My cries for help could win GRAMMYs for best vocal performance

Bitch, I'm important, that's why they ignore it

I'm already a legend, this is just insurance

Thе Pelle is from '93, the whiskеy 1792

Did the math, y'all just who they told you be, minus you

Compromise for who? Done everything I tried to do

They like, "These rappers lyin'," y'all the ones they lying to

[Chorus]

Ooh

Bitch, I'm taking swimming lessons, yeah, yeah (Okay, okay, that shit wavy, okay, I kinda like that shit though)

This is some murky water, yeah (Yeah, alright, yeah, alright, we fuckin' with you, we fuckin' with you)

Bitch, I'm taking swimming lessons

(Yeah, HOMECOURT shit, yeah)

Commas cool (Talk that shit), but I done got me karma

[Verse 2]

They never picked me the pop, no Kurt Thomas

Looks may deceive, but my work's honest

That lil' bag cool, I prefer homage

Still move like I first promised

Curt Mayfield meet Kurt Vonnegut

You couldn't fuck with my worst sonnet, bet the purse on 'em

On my worst loss, still reimburse all it

Make the net worth move

Y'all just good at makin' network moves

I been hittin' shots, wanna slow me down 'fore I get away from 'em

How a net work, ooh

I'm screamin' rest in peace to Willis Reed

Metaphors aside, you motherfuckers ain't as real as me

[Chorus]

Ooh

I been taking giving lessons, bitch

I feel like Michelle Obama, ooh

Look at all these simple blessings, yeah

Commas cool, but I done got me karma

[Outro]

I been in the dark too long

I been in the dark too long

I been in the dark too long
