A Number Does Not Define Me


Look at that ACT score, NO.

It makes me want to cry all night.

But I just need to tell myself.

A number does not define me.

 

A's and B's to show what I know.

GPA has no where to go. 

But my parents need to see that.

A number does not define me.

 

I go to tutoring everyday.

But my ACT score still sucks.

Is this what my life has become?

A number does not define me.

 

What is the magic score again? 

A number does not define me.
