Nobody Cares


 

What I call life 
Other people don't call it
Either get an education 
Or become an alcoholic 
Most friends I grew up with 
Never went to college
Some a couple years ahead of me with less knowledge 
They took the wrong road 
Until they ran out of mileage 
Now they are stuck in town 
Getting paid 8 an hour 
And that path is wrong 
So a change must come 
But it's all up to me
if I will choose the right one
Peer pressure 
I wish I would've never met you 
I took my first sip of grey goose because of you
That's why I hate you
But I must live my life now
Mind your business 
And I will mind mine
Never look back
The past is the past life 
And you don't know what is wrong
Until it passes by
So wait for the future with your hands high 
Life is hard but be strong because it takes time
