You've got to live and learn
You've got to live and learn
Before your bridges burn
You've got to live and learn
Here's a little story about life
Everybody that lives surely dies
A lot of people
ask the questions why
Some people have to go
through so much more
Before they really learn
about life's score
The subject is not to be ignored
Kick it to 'em Joe
I don't wanna be the one
To tell you how it's gotta be
Livin' is the only way
You're ever really gonna see
You've got to live and learn
You've got to live and learn
Before your bridges burn
You've got to live and learn
Ah yeah
Y'all check it
Kick this one for the Public
Now break it down
There's so much wrong and negativity
Enough for the whole world to see
I know there's still a possibility
You raise a little kid
he turns out bold
It may be from the
way you treat him cold
I guess that's how the story's told
Tell 'em what it is
I don't wanna be the one
To tell you how it's gotta be
Livin' is the only way
You're ever really gonna see
You've got to live and learn
You've got to live and learn
Before your bridges burn
You've got to live and learn
You've got to live and learn
I don't wanna be the one
You've got to live and learn
To tell you how it's gotta be
Before your bridges burn
Livin' is the only way
You've got to live and learn
That you're ever gonna see
Large If large is how ya livin'
Why you're livin' large
are you takin' what is given
To you in the form
of true experience
'Cause if you're not your
whole life could be spent
Doin' time for a crime
you say you didn't even do
The only fool that you're foolin'
is the fool that is you
Didn't even turn around
to check and see if your
bridge is burnin'
I guess it's true what they
say that without livin'
there's no learnin'
And this is from the J
the O and the E
Mary Mary Mary
it's quite contrary
Yo' how did you
earn your dough
You didn't finish school
you ain't got no job
But to the human
eye it's pretty simple
You're always talkin' about
what you want is respect
But never thinkin' about
the little boy you neglect
Spendin' his formative
years in a livin' hell
Not realizin' one day
he'd end up in jail
Now on the other hand
There's Dan my man
Who planned a scam
and I'll be damned
It was the ultimate flim flam
He was sayin' that it
was easy as pie
But little did Dan know
he was about to die
You've got to live and learn
I don't wanna be the one
You've got to live and learn
To tell you how it's gotta be
Before your bridges burn
Livin' is the only way
You've got to live and learn
That you're ever gonna see
You've got to live and learn
I don't wanna be the one
You've got to live and learn
To tell you how it's gotta be
Before your bridges burn
Livin' is the only way
You've got to live and learn
That you're ever gonna see
You've got to live and learn
I don't wanna be the one
