Lessons (Explicit) - Stormzy

Composed by：Ed Thomas/Michael Omari

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 b***h all the time just read my message

S**t f**king 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 a 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 s**t 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

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

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 trier 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

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
