Can You Learn (feat. R. Kelly)

Hey, I got a question for the ladies out there

Yeah, 'cause there's a few things that I would like to know

Before I **** with you

Oh, baby could you learn

Could you learn to love a troubled man?

Oh, baby could you learn

Could you learn to love a troubled man?

You sure you wanna roll with me? I'm a complicated man

Live my life close to the edge, it ain't near safe to stand

I'm Trouble Man, always into something

Numb to the consequences, guess it's coming if it's coming

But so much s*it they say that I can't do because I'm famous

Guess I should live in a bubble like these other entertainers

The danger's so enticing to me, I don't even notice it

Guess I get away or get arrested before it's over with

Prison sentence every year, got everybody after me

Reaper on my heels, I'm just praying he don't catch a G

Imagine me and you, somewhere happy with a few hundred mills,

Sill I could go to jail for some years,

Cause I push it to the limit, the danger's so exciting

I'm loving every minute, girl this life ain't nothing like it

And you only live once so as long as I'm alive

I'll be living on the edge

Shawty, sure you wanna ride?

Oh, baby could you learn

Could you learn to love a troubled man?

Oh, baby could you learn

Could you learn to love a troubled man?

Yeah, hey, hey and they say if the drugs ain't the death of me

The lifestyle will be!

Law keep arresting me, sucker wanna kill me

Still we're in the fast lane, grind break, next speed

A million dollar sports car, smoking on the best ****.

Fist fights in night clubs for rap beefs,

Shootings, retaliations, yeah, it's that deed!

I guess they just got to catch me when they catch me

Cause I'm putting it in they life if they attempt to disrespect me

Especially since I know they say what go around come around

That's why when we go around I keep a gun around

The bulls*it, there be none around here

But I got a secret though, I wanna change, I swear!

But suckers won't let me and feds still sweat me

So I'm looking for the worst to have you praying for the best

Think you can help me if they get me?

Could you handle s*it for me?

Think about it!

Is your body sure? the answer for me

Oh, baby (exactly)

Could you learn?

(Think you could learn to love a ***** like me?)

Could you learn to love a troubled man

(I know what I need) yeah! (and it's worth it, you know)

Yeah, yeah, baby could you love?

(Just think about it for a second)

Could you learn to love a troubled man, yeah?

(I mean could you find me near?)

I deserve you!

Girl, would you give me a number?

If I had an OK car, not much money

9 to 5 with a future on me, oh

Tell me, would you ever **** with a brother like me?

(If I did time in my life, time, time in my life

Time, time in my life)

Tell me, would you give your *** to me?

I really want to know

(If I was fighting in the club, fighting in the club

Fight, fighting in the club, fighting in the club)

Hey lady,could you learn

Learn to love a troubled man?

Hey, hey, hey baby

Could you learn (tell me could you learn?)

Could you learn to love a troubled man?

(I mean if you knew he was really,

Really a good hearted person, man

Do you think you could put up the bulls*it to the outside, man?

I mean if you saw the good qualities within, man

Could you, could you ignore all the bulls*it that they are saying?

I'm a product of my environment,

I can only act as good as life allows me to act

You know what I'm saying so

What I need is a good influence like you

You know what I'm saying?

Think you can find me, Lord?
