Breath


College is coming oh me oh my I have no idea what I'll do tonight Applications, Dead Lines and Work When in doubt I should just twerk No that won't help me get in college Maybe I should just quote hamlet "To be or not to be is the question" more like To go or not to go, no hesitation I need to make something out of me I need to go out and break free From this prison holding me back there are chains, they keep me trapped I need to fill out so many scholarships I wish I was rich so I could pay for college Not much money, can't pay for shit Don't know what I'll do Prostitution? sell some kids? None of those will help me get to where I wanna go Need to improve, I ain't no lazy ho I'll try my best, and work my hardest Someday I'll join Dr.Who in the Tardis but not right now because I am busy So many scholarships making me dizzy I am working on one right Now Hopefully I will win, but how? Bribe the judges, cash or credit? Would you guys accept debit? No snap out of it, honest work Keep moving forward Success will lurk at every corner you just have to find it I'll just sleep for now Tomorrow I'll bind it
