Lost Ones

Lyrics

It's funny how money change a situation
 Miscommunication leads to complication
 My emancipation don't fit your equation
 I was on the humble, you on every station
 Some wan' play young Lauryn like she dumb
 But remember not a game new under the sun
 Everything you did has already been done
 I know all the tricks from Bricks to Kingston
 My ting done made your kingdom wan' run
 Now understand L-Boogie, non-violent
 But if a thing test me, run for me gun
 Can't take a threat to mi newborn son
 L been this way since creation
 A groupie call, you fall from temptation
 Now you wanna ball over separation
 Tarnish my image in your conversation
 Who you gon' scrimmage, like you the champion
 You might win some but you just lost one
 You might win some but you just lost one
 You might win some but you just lost one
 You might win some but you just lost one
 You might win some but you just lost one
 Now, now how come your talk turn cold?
 Gained the whole world for the price of your soul
 Tryin' to grab hold of what you can't control
 Now you're all floss, what a sight to behold
 Wisdom is better than silver and gold
 I was hopeless now I'm on hope road
 Every man wants to act like he's exempt
 Need to get down on his knees and repent
 Can't slick talk on the day of judgement
 Your movement's similar to a serpent
 Tried to play straight, how your whole style bent?
 Consequence is no coincidence
 Hypocrites always wanna play innocent
 Always wanna take it to the full out extent
 Always wanna make it seem like good intent
 Never wanna face it when it time for punishment
 I know you don't wanna hear my opinion
 There come many paths and you must choose one
 And if you don't change then the rain soon come
 See you might win some but you just lost one
 You might win some but you just lost one
 You might win some but you just lost one
 You might win some but you just lost one
 You might win some but you just lost one
 You might win some but you really lost one
 You just lost one, it's so silly, how come?
 When it's all done, did you really gain from
 What you done done? It's so silly, how come?
 You just lost one
 Now don't you understand, man, universal law?
 What you throw out comes back to you, star
 Never underestimate those who you scar
 'Cause karma, karma, karma comes back to you hard
 You can't hold God people back that long
 The chain of Shatan wasn't made that strong
 Trying to pretend like your word is your bond
 But until you do right, all you do will go wrong
 Now some might mistake this for just a simple song
 And some don't know what they have 'til it's gone
 Now even when you're gone you can still be reborn
 And, from the night can arrive the sweet dawn
 Now some might listen and some might shun
 And some may think that they've reached perfection
 If you look closely you'll see what you've become
 'Cause you might win some but you just lost one
 You might win some but you just lost one
 You might win some but you just lost one
 You might win some but you just lost one
 You might win some but you just lost one
 You might win some, but you really lost one
 You just lost one, it's so silly, how come?
 When it's all done, did you really gain from
 What you done done? It's so silly, how come?
 You might win some, but you really lost one
 You just lost one, it's so silly, how come?
 When it's all done did you really gain from
 What you done done? It's so silly, how come?
 You just lost one
 You just lost one, you just lost one
 You just lost one, you just lost one
 You just lost one, you just lost one
 You just lost one
 What a bam-bam
 Alright people, I'm gonna write something on the board
 Let's spell it, first letter
 L, O, V, E
 What's that?
 Love
 What?
 Love
 How many people know any songs about love?
 Right here, I know a lot about love
 Tell me some titles, titles of some songs
 Love
 There's a song called love?
 Yeah
 There's no song called love
 Yeah, it's by Kirk Franklin
 Okay, okay how it go?
 It go, love
 Bet, bet, okay
 Anybody else know any songs about love
 I can't hear you
 I Will Always Love You
 What about any movies about love? Know any movies about love?
 Titanic
 Alright

 Did you know that was about love or you saw it on TV
 And they said it was about love
