Going to college


Going to college isn’t a requirement 
Going to college is most definitely a privilege 
Going to college is a privilege I believe all Kids
Should partake in
Going to college in our society is seen as a Grammy
Going to college is a Grammy because now your somewhere in a part of your young years you thought you’d never be
But Going to college isn’t a game 
Going to college isn’t all about trying to chase the fame or being the #1 in a football or basketball game 
Going to college is a mental and physical thing 
Going to college isn’t about looking for a husband to give you that ring
Because that ring is one thing that might not last
But that Degree won’t get past me no doubt without a fight 
Going to college your first year, yeah your a rookie
So no time to play hookie 
Going to college is a full time job that pays you back in the long run 
Yes, Going to college can be fun 
Just don’t get distracted by the parties
Because those parties are fun and all but do they pay you in the long run?
Think about that
Actually just think about Going to college
