Lessons

about

"Lessons" is a track about the human experience. We make mistakes, we learn, we grow, we make more mistakes, we learn more, we grow more. The key is to not let our mistakes determine who we are, but instead let our growth and our progress determine how far we have come. Ultimately, our identity is in Christ, not in circumstances or challenges. Thank God for lessons.

lyrics

Every loss is just a lesson
Every trial turns to triumph
Remember that you're human
Stay focused and keep your eyes up
I used to be so hard on myself
A brutalizer
Till the spirit said be kind to yourself
And now I’m wiser
Was a like a geyser
How feelings stayed below
Until they blow
And I explode
That took a toll
Needed to really know
That we’re living in an experience
Having room to grow
Creates everlasting resilience
Silly of me to think that I could shame
Myself to victory
Thinking there was a benefit to being
My worst enemy
Planting the wrong seeds in my mind
No sesame
Recipe for disaster diverted
It felt like destiny
Cause
I had this beat for a minute
And ain't know how to rap it
I guess I had to learn lessons
Before that coulda happened
Needed some real confirmation
Like ok aye aye captain
Downloaded new information
I was severely lacking
I was severely lagging
But never moving backwards
One foot in front of the other
I’m tryna build some traction
Figure the lessons I’ve learnt
Are just a tiny fraction
Of what’s to come down the road
It’s time to get to action

I know I don’t know it all
But I believe in the one that does
Who I’m becoming
Ain’t who I was
I’m learning lessons.
