Def Räädu & J.O.C. Lessons Lyrics

Let this be a lesson, lesson for I and I
Let this be a lesson that one day we all die
Let there also be a lesson that death is not the end
It does matter how you spend your life my friend

Lesson number one, nuh pull no gun
At least when you got the choice that something else can be done
But some o dem rudeboys walk around an do it just fi fun
And some o dem rudeboys go and stabbin somebody's son
Dem never-never bother thinkin what could be the outcome
It just feels exciting to bust the gap inna di lung
Well I-man tell you that this kinda way it only lead you fi dung
Cos other side of your violence is self distruction
One day your conscience will be consistin inna friction
And too much friction deadly fi each and every one

Lesson number two goes out fi you
Who be livin in permanent lies, me no advise you to
No matter if you deceive or you're getting fooled
Coh both o dem ways dem up fi no good
Ignorance and carelessness dem leave your life inna di mess
You can't reach happiness if you can't take no stress
What you know deep inside you better let express
Instead of talking better listen to avoid excess
Every wrong that you commit it a go leave the impress
In your mind, in your soul, in your concsiousness

Lesson number three it goes fi J.O.C.
The one with the microphone and teachin everybody
Me often forget that what you give is what you get
I should always remember that we're livin' in a net
Should appreciate more, should give lot more respect
Should'nt judge too quick, gotta see every aspect
Gotta restrain I desire and dem bad habit
Gotta reach out fi divine bit by bit
