Lyrics to Lessons :
[Sadat X] "R-A what's the lesson for today Rugged Man"
[Sadat X] "I am the legendary..R-A"

[Verse 1]
Yo aiiyo people wonderin' where the fuck I been
At the VIP section they ain't lettin' me in
They say; maybe if you had Dr. Dre or Timbaland
They say; a white boy need a black boy to win

Uhh Bubba Sparxx did it and so did Slim
Just Blaze is hot now why don't you get with him
I watch mad rappers bite my shit and blow up
And make millions of what I created, that's tough luck

I first started gettin' coverage, around the same time
Steve Stout used to carry kid and placed luggage
I seen rappers turned from sex symbols in hard throbs
To bein forgotten now they out lookin' for jobs

I seen EPMD break up
I seen my little brother Max fall asleep and he ain't never wake up
So when I rhyme listen, seriously
When I spit I'm givin' you the truth clearly who I really be

It's an audio version of reality TV
I had deals from Russell Simmonds to Master P
Even five year old white girls be rappin' today
On the playground like 'go shorty it's ya birthday' (Go, go, go..)

"Here's a little story I got ta tell"
"I am the legendary"
"R-A" "Rugged Man"

[Verse 2]
Yo yo I seen good days sun rays church sundays
Made love made war been rich been poor
Lost friends lost lawsuits lost my dough
Seen beef between Bad Boy and Death Row

I seen decease take the life for my sisters kid
Six months on the earth that's what he had to live
I seen Biggie Big L Big Pun pass away
Buffy from the Fat Boys, Jam Master Jay

A month before they blew up with Mystikal and Jay-Z
The Neptunes came to see me at D & D
I knew this chick named Norah a lounge singerR.A. The Rugged Man - Lessons - http://motolyrics.com/ra-the-rugged-man/lessons-lyrics.html
A year later she a six Grammy award winner

I've seen Flatliners, I've seen Cannabisses
I've seen Lil Zanes, yeah I've seen mad misses
You and tune that ass bitches get ten percent disses
I seen A & R's get fired for takin' pisses

Stop whinin' and bitchin' nobody listens
Who else riskin' they career to stick to being different
Switchin' the tradition stickin' to this shit they really livin'
I don't care what's hittin
Listen this my fuckin' life that I'm spittin'

"Here's a little story I got ta tell"
"I am the legendary"
"R-A" "Rugged Man"

[Verse 3]
I'm at peace with myself now how bout that
I hated life I wanted to die a few years back
I was mentally ill, it's hard to come back from that
But I got through it now I got my sanity back

Y'all are like H-B-O fighters, get the money and fame
and you get beat up like Klitschko and Sugar Shane
Or get beat like Vernon Forrest or Prince Naseem
Yeah you all turn pussy once you get that green

I got love for Havoc from Mobb Deep
When I was broke sleepin' in the street
He hooked me up with a free beat
Alchemist you still my little buddy
Even though you stole that Royce the 5"9 The King beat from me

I ain't down to sign autographs and shake ya hands
I don't want trendy ass followers as fans
I don't wanna sell records, I don't wanna be big
I don't want MTV runnin' up in my crib
I don't wanna be liked in the music biz
I don't want fans that don't know who G Rap is

"Here's a little story I got ta tell"
"I am the legendary"
"R-A" "Rugged Man"
"Here's a little story I got ta tell"
"I am the legendary"
"R-A" "Rugged Man"
"what's the lesson for today Rugged Man"
