Here we go, so pay attention to the teacher

Here to preach a lesson to reach ya

Brothers and sisters, nieces and nephews

Think that I'm joking? Well then F you

Cause I'm here to put you up on a crime scoop

It'll only take a minute of your time, troop

So don't be a dummy or a lame brain

Lord Finesse is teaching so just maintain

I'm not trying to diss you or even teach you

But here to teach you we are all equal

And show y'all in fact there's a better way

Than depending on Welfare or Medicaid

So finish up school and pass the scholar quiz

And show your children what the value of a dollar is

Cause many children are hard to please today

Cause they're searching for some type of easy way

But there's not, so who's at fault here?

So think about the lesson being taught here

How many brothers in the world you see today

Can say that they're living the legal way?

Out of 20, I could say a few of them

Out of seven I could say about two of them

Live correct and, show respect and

Don't sweat was is owned by the next man

Or front the role, being harder or tougher

Or live the life of a hustler

Selling that white stuff just to make a fast buck

But they don't stand tough when in handcuffs

So understand and comprehend and see, kid

You don't wanna take a fall like he did

Or she did or they did, or how others did

So don't sweat the lifestyle of another kid

Get yours by achieving and planning

So when they fall you'll still be standing

Set your goal, and know what your quest is

Open your ears to this positive message
