Lessons & Lectures ft. Kalin Jones Lyrics

Look, I tried playing with fire and I got burned

I know it's cliché but I guess, lesson learned

Lessons and lectures, yeah I been through em all

But each time it seems fine then another comes along

I hope I don't get embarrassed when I tell this

I dealt with depression as a Christian my mind melted

I thought I was immune but I'll tell you right now

It had a hold on my soul and I felt helpless

April had me feeling alone, my dark ages

I was down for the count, I guess Satan had made arrangements

I went on with life and kept it moving but then May came

And everything I thought was stable wasn't truly

And there I was in my room, tired of losing

I never thought that life itself was so abusive

My energy depleted, contacts deleted

Reconfiguring my systems like a technological genius

Then there was jolly old June, just a couple more days

And then I'd be seventeen soon

I had friends hitting me up like, man what's the moves

But my social battery hadn't yet charged to full

Not even a half, more like a twenty-two

Just a week into summer and I'm already in the mood

Like dang, haha

Man, all these emotions really got me confused

I tried playing with fire and I got burned

I know it's cliché, but I guess, lesson learned

Lessons and lectures, yeah I been through em all

But each time it seems fine and another comes along

I hope I don't get embarrassed when I tell this

I dealt with depression as a Christian, my mind melted

I thought I was immune, but I tell you right now

It had a hold on my soul and I felt helpless

Okay, I was broke out my mind

Two daughters, I was mad at God, didn't give him no time

Hoop and hollering, I stayed focused and I kept on my grind

Was too tired, then I peeped that I was all out of line

Like school phonicsly, I'm more eager

Need help from my Jesus, I'm over-completed

I'm folding them demons, not restored, I'm depleted

I'm more than I'm seeing depression

Kicking tail, and taking names, I'm Simon Peter

Ain't no lecture can save me, my brain be trying to weaken

Needed me a healer, all the saints, we steady teaching

Practice what you preach, say something but don't mean it

Lord, make my path straight, I'm walking like Drunken Beaver

I feel so holy, say, feeling like Justin Bieber

They can't take my mind, depression, losing

Beating every demon every time, it's kinda confusing

Lord, I need you right in my life, I'm done abusing

I'm walking with you right by my side, I'm done with losing

Back on buisness, I'll be back on mission

Back ain't never get me happy, wishing I was never stuck

My story never finish, back replenish

Homie, gotta feel me, you can tell the difference

Hey, hey, and you can tell the difference

I tried playing with fire and I got burned

I know it's cliche, but I guess, lesson learned

Lessons and lectures, yeah, I've been through them all

But each time it seems fine, then another comes along

I hope I don't get embarrassed when I tell this

I dealt with depression as a Christian, my mind melted

I thought I was immune, but I tell you right now

It had a hole in my soul and I felt

Mmm, and I felt helpless
