[Verse 1] Learning to live life is one big Lesson Don’t wear bling, learn to sing I was locked up for insubordination, now I live in Moderation My grandpa always said the key to life is moderation. Learn to use it, not abuse it Too much good can be bad Too much bad can be a good thing, depending on the individual. And the prolonged residual. [Chorus] So, learning to live is a lesson of life! So, living and learning are life's lessons! I love poetry. Poetry has taught me to be a wizard! If you want to be like me, a poetry wizard You must first catch a leaping lizard. I want you to know that all of my art comes from my heart. It is the art in my heart that puts the roll in my soul. The sole of my shoe puts the rock in my roll, baby! [Verse 2] To have contrast, you need two or more To win, you first have to score, and the weather tomorrow will be better. Most of everything comes in pairs: Big, Small, Tall, Short, Stand, Sit [harmonica solo, deep, loud,] [Chorus] So, learning to live is a lesson of life! So, living and learning are life's lessons! I love poetry. Poetry has taught me to be a wizard! If you want to be like me, a poetry wizard You must first catch a leaping lizard. I want you to know that all of my art comes from my heart. It is the art in my heart that puts the roll in my soul. The sole of my shoe puts the rock in my roll, baby! [Verse 3] I just love being Soulful and poetic Chasin’ riches, but life still leaves its stitches, And every fortune only grants a portion of the truth I’m holdin’. Jazz‑funk bounce Got my riches, dodgin’ glitches, I keep my flame scorchin’, as I flip this life and claim my portion. Storytelling is reflective, my Riches never fixed the stitches time was sewin’, Fortune gave a portion, but the rest I had to grow in. [hard core bass slap and pluck solo] [Chorus] So, learning to live is a lesson of life! So, living and learning are life's lessons! I love poetry. Poetry has taught me to be a wizard! If you want to be like me, a poetry wizard You must first catch a leaping lizard. I want you to know that all of my art comes from my heart. It is the art in my heart that puts the roll in my soul. The sole of my shoe puts the rock in my roll, baby! [Outro] I tend to get Bluesy and gritty, says the ladies in the city Know this, Riches come with witches and always with a pocket full of glitches, Fortune only gives a portion, never everything it promises. So, I say, “get down”, “get down and funky,” only I can skool yah cuz I’m gonna get Cha from behind, from behind!
