M-1 - Learning Growing Changing lyrics

[Intro] We could grow We could develop [stic.man] As we know that heaven is not a place And happiness lives in the heart Long as the world keep turning Our duty is to keep on learning Ya heard? [Hook: stic.man] Keep on learning, and soaking up game We gon' make mistakes, we gon' go through some things Keep on growing, keep on soaking up game If something ain't working, don't be afraid to change [Verse 1: stic.man] Nobody know it all As soon as you think you do, that's when you fall We gotta do more than survive—we must evolve Things change just when you think you seen it all We trip, we stumble, but we get back in stride Each day, all the way, one step at a time Don't wanna let my ego and pride make me blind The elders say, “When you stop growing, that's when you die”” The one who gets the knowledge is the one who asked “why?” Through the course of life, you gon' taste some humble pie But I love it—it makes me appreciate the things that I take for granted Gaining insight and understanding Each one teach one—we got to pa** it on Keep doing the knowledge, building and adding on With faith in the a**umption That nobody knows everything but everybody knows something [Hook] [Verse 2: M-1] The more you know, the more you know you don't know And if you don't know there's more you can know, then you won't grow What you don't know can hurt you. Discipline is a virtue Gotta ask the right questions or else you go into cycles And cyphers and spirals Information is viral—this infects you It's contagious, it had you going through stages Like denial, don't believe that. No, we didn't do that Then reality set in, there's no disputing the facts Yo, I'm sorry if I woke you up, but when I open up It's like I'm smoking but I'm high off the people, watch me soak it up Huey said the best education is observation and participation Study how the people be relating Different points of views turn bad news to good news See, it's kinda like some shoes ‘cause they gotta make you move Treat it like organic food, make it something you can chew Information you can use, make it something you can do [Hook] [Interlude: stic.man] Aye man, it's okay to say you don't know. It's when you let go your ego, you're free from all illusion, dig? Can't make moves in confusion. Don't look for conflict, man—always look for the solution. And my pop said, “Humility is a sign of wisdom.” But to really soak it in, now that's a different kind of listening. See, man sharpen man, and every day is another lesson. And it's not fair you only learn man—it's a blessing. And as the Buddha says, “Nothing lasts forever.” We gotta manage our expectations—The less we crave, the less we suffer; and this way, we awaken. Right understanding, right thought, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, right focus, keep soaking. Soak it up [Hook]
