I Care


I'm tired of this hallway Full of people Full of potential But going nowhere. I'm tired of individuals who Feel they'll succeed becasue Hey, it's me. I feel like they don't understand There's hard work There's dedication. I care about my future I care about my children's future I will work As hard as I have to To ensure that I make it. I care about my grades I care about my tests. I don't settle Always push, but they They don't see the point I do too much Actually I don't do enough. Sometimes sleep is optional Eating is simultaneous Concentration is critical. I care about college I care about a career I don't want a job. I care Why don't you?
