The sands of time have come and gone And all we know is movin' on What are we supposed to do? We've got a lot to learn (whoa-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh) We've got a lot to learn (whoa-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh) Can you hear me now? Can you hear me now? Can you see me now? Can you see that now We've got a lot to learn? (Whoa-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh) Live and you learn, reap what you sow (sow) Just be quiet, speak what you know (know) Hold on the line, know sometimes It gets tough and you gotta grind (yo) Stayed in my lane, made it through the rain Just did me and I never did change (never) Old head said, "No pain, no gain" Just went hard, didn't play no games Go hard or go home, in my zone Did my road work on my own Just kept my eyes focused on that throne And I knew the whole time that it wouldn't be long Said, "My time was comin'", kept on waitin' Took a little perseverance and patience Focused, affirmed with determination Mixed a little discipline with a little dedication (come on) No vacation, off to the races Every single time that I tighten my laces I ain't never hear what the critics was sayin' They must have thought this was just entertainment All of a sudden, now you famous Everybody watchin', everythin' changin' (changin') Must admit this stuff been crazy I still make mistakes on a daily basis (come on) We've got a lot to learn (whoa-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh) We've got a lot to learn (whoa-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh) Can you hear me now? Can you hear me now? Can you see me now? Can you see that now We've got a lot to learn? (Whoa-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh) Song with a struggle, song of redemption Song for the young kid goin' to detention Dad was a pimp, mom was a stripper Sits around with his headphones and he listens And he does all the things that he gets to see all of these celebrities do And he talks to me, so understand it I'm gon' tell him the truth Tell him that he gotta pray, keep his faith Stay away from all these snakes Scandalous game every day What it takes just to make you stay determined Understand it, it's a journey Real man never stops learnin' When you speak, you speak with purpose Pay attention to bridges burned Don't let 'em say that you worthless Only Jesus was perfect The rest of us are hurtin', that's for certain And we gon' keep on workin' 'til the curtains get closed And then wake back up the next day and go to work, and yeah, that's us Where were you when I needed you? Oh, we've got a lot to learn We've got a lot to learn Alone in the moment, livin' this life Truth can hurt you, sharp as a knife And when the pain comes on We've gotta hold on We've got a lot to learn (whoa-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh) We've got a lot to learn (whoa-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh) We've got a lot to learn (whoa-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh) We've got a lot to learn (whoa-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh) Can you hear me now?
