Learning

Learning, learning, learning Learning, learning, learning When I was six years old, I kinda wet the bed My stepdad came in and nearly beat me to death All bruised and broken, I was lonely and scared My mom, she was working, there was nobody there My nana showed up, she was super protective Had a tear in her eye, she saw how I was neglected The crazy part about it, she's a straight-up detective But you never would've guessed it, how she'd cook you a breakfast Three weeks later, she had him locked in a cell Now I'm seven years old with a story to tell Sing it I'm gonna let it go Forgiveness is something we gotta know 'Cause if you hold on forever, it'll hurt your soul That's why I'm learning how to let it go That's why I'm learning how to let it go Now middle school's here, a new chapter in life New stepdad, too, made my mama his wife Got new problems now, like tryna fit in Getting looked down on just because of your skin It's bad enough, I can't afford them clothes Got high water's on with holes in my sole Now, that's the type of stuff to put a hole in your soul But, uh, I'm just gonna, uh, I'm just gonna I'm gonna let it go Forgiveness is something we gotta know 'Cause if you hold on forever, it'll hurt your soul That's why I'm learning how to let it go That's why I'm learning how to let it go I'm grown up now, I learned enough for a song Still got some friends, but most of 'em gone Overdoses or killed by a gun Breaking into houses, life on the run Did it for his kid, now he won't be around Guess the little one's gonna be just like me now If you're carrying the bitterness around on your shoulders Then just remember what I told you Sing it I'm gonna let it go Forgiveness is something we gotta know 'Cause if you hold on forever, it'll hurt your soul That's why I'm learning how to let it go That's why I'm learning how to let it go I'm learning how to let it go --- Learning - Kane Brown
