Lost Ones Lyrics

Artist: Lauryn Hill
Album: The Miseducation Of Lauryn Hill

It's funny how money change the situation
Miscommunication leads to complication
My emancipation don't fit your equation
I was on the humble You on every station
Some wanna play Lauryn Like she dumb
But remember not to gain new under the sun
Everything you did has already been done
I know all the tricks from Bricks to Kingston
My thing done made you king Don Juan run
Now understand L Boogie Non-violent
But if a thing test me run to my gun
Can't take a threat to my new-born son
L been this way since creation
A groupie car you'll far from temptation
Now you wanna lie off of seperation
Tarnish my image in the conversation
Who you gonna scrimmage, like you the champion?
You might win some, but you just lost one
Hook-You might win some, but you just lost one 4X
Now, now how come your talk turned cold
Gain the whole world for the price of your soul
Trying to grab hold of what you can't control
Now you gonna floss what a sight to behold
Wisdom is better than silver and gold
I was hopless now I'm all hopeful
Every man wanna act like he's exempt
Need to get down on his knees and repent
Can't slip talk on the day of judgement
The move man similar to a serpent
Tried to play straight, how you whole style bent
Consequence is no coincidence
Hypocrites always want to play in a sense
Always wanna take it 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 changem then the rain soon comes
So you might win some, but you just lost one
Hook
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 (gain from)?
What you done, done it's so silly how come?
Now don't you understand man universal law
What you throw out, come back till you soar
Never underestimate those who you scar
Cause karma karma karma comes back to you hard
You cant hold God's people back that long
The chain of Satan wasn't made that strong
Tryin' to pretend like your word is your bond
But, until you do right or you fo or go wrong
Bow some might mistake this for just a simple song
And some don't know what they have till it's gone
Even when you 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 think that they've reached perfection
If you look closely, you'll see what you become
Cause you might win some, but you just lost one
Hook
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?
2x
You just lost one (8X)
What's a bum, bum??
