LEARN LYRICS

I'm starting college, just got my diploma

Tracked by the BAC, one day they'll gun me down

Buried in my books when I'm in my room

I go from town to town, I'm in the gang war

Loved by the teachers, I always get good grades

I only know the hood and the clink of cuffs

Little girl turned woman, I'm floating, need some sun

We flip from laughs to tears to drama, I need sleep

If you love me, stop your nonsense

You gotta grow up

You make me cry at night

You fell in love with a thug

This has to end between us

I fell in love with a thug

This has to end between us

I'm chasing the laughter, the smiles we forget

In the middle of the projects

And where we grew up, we committed crimes

We hope the case's dropped

You fell in love with a thug

This has to end between us

This life's too dangerous

That's why I dodge you all the time

And I'm in love, that's why I call you so often

I grew up with nothing, I don't want that for my son

So nothing happens to you, I pray at night

You made your mom cry, do you think about me?

I'm too scared of the light 'cause I lived in the dark

I can read between the lines, don't really like reading books

Time is killing me while hope keeps me alive

If you love me, stop your nonsense

You gotta grow up

You make me cry at night

You fell in love with a thug

This has to end between us

I fell in love with a thug

This has to end between us

I'm chasing the laughter, the smiles we forget

In the middle of the projects

And where we grew up, we committed crimes

We hope the case's dropped

You fell in love with a thug

This has to end between us

I fell in love with a thug

I've fallen, fallen, fallen, fallen, fallen in love
