God has a funny way of showing you lessons (oh-oh)
Remix featuring Kevin Ross, Raheem DeVaughn, and Anthony Hamilton (oh, ooh-oh)
God has a funny way of showing what is meant to be
Had to learn everything I was meant to see wasn't meant for me
I guess I have to fall many times (fall to fall in love)
Guess all them bruises made me strong enough, to see you (see you)
See who you are, 'cause before I just played too many games
To see this blessing in front of me
Thank God He opened up my eyes, now I realize
Everyone that let me down led me to you
Oh baby, all them sleepless nights
All the heartbreak I had led me to you
'Cause if I never went through it, I'd never find a love like
Lessons
Growing up in time, it's a blessing
And I waited one more day running 'round, I would've missed this, mmh-mmh-mmh
Not you, baby, no
The heart of the woman that you are surely shine through (shine through you, you, you)
God must've saved me for you
I used to dread the love I lost, it was barely just a blemish (oh-oh-oh)
Now that life led me to you, God intended this
Now I realize everyone that let me down led me to you
Oh baby, all them sleepless nights
All the heartbreak I had led me to you
And if I never went through it, I would never find love like you
Loving temptation (lesson), like a Rolling Stone, Temptation song
Papa was a Rolling Stone
Run in the fast lane, never looking back (just always moving on)
I kept it moving on
'Til you came in my world ('til you came in my world), baby
Ooh, you struck my heart like lightning, boo
So I'm grateful, baby
I'm grateful, baby
'Cause I realize
Everyone that let me down led me to you, baby
You came as a blessing (?)
When I realized
All the heartbreak I had led me to you, oh baby
And if I never went through it, I would never find a love like you
Lessons (lessons)
Every bad choice only made for the thoroughest checklist (checklist)
Every wrong turn showed me there's a clearer direction
I had to let it go and let God do it
If it was up to me, I would've never knew
This magic, the best thing happened to me
Life's fast, but with you in my passenger seat
No losses, we just live and learn (live and learn)
And though I can't say (say)
Every love affair I had was perfect
But every painful day and late night was worth it
Took me a while, but I realized
That everyone that let me down led me to you (led me to you, baby)
Oh baby, oh-oh
All them sleepless nights (all them sleepless nights)
All the heartbreak I had (all the heartbreak I had) led me to you (led me to you, baby)
'Cause if I never went through it, I'd have never found a love like you
The sky was always blue (always blue)
But bluer now with you (with you)
The sun, it seems to shine (shine, shine, shine, shine) brighter now
I needed ups and downs (ups and downs) to realize this now (realize)
And now that you're around
I guess I needed a lesson
Lesson
I can't help but thank God for you, baby, yeah
Now I see, guess I had to realize
Everyone that let me down led me to you (led me to you, oh, baby) (oh, baby)
All them sleepless nights
All the heartbreak I had led me to you (led me to you)
And if I never went through it, I would never found love like you
Realize everyone that let me down led me to you (I'd never found love like you) (you, you, you, ooh)
I'd never found love like you (you, you, you, ooh)
(You, you, you, ooh) (oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
(You, you, you, ooh)
(You, you, you, ooh)
