Hello? Open your eyes

Do you not see how talented you are?

God-gifted and yet 

you still fuck up this far?

Open your mind

Do you not see that you have this thing called 

P O T E N T I A L 

Might as well give it to someone else 

so they can get better grades than you

ever will put forth the effort to have

Its a shame that you're paying thousands of dollars 

for that bullcrap

Was it worth the $7,000 loan that mom took out?

I guess you're just gonna sit at another F and

pout

But its too late and crying won't solve that

"I'll do better next semester" . . .

Yeah right, about that

If you can't get right now, what makes

you think you can then?

All you care about is going out

partying with your friends so

JUST DROP OUT

Whats that? Oh you've came too far?

Well you should've thought about that

when you were at the bar knowing you had 

papers, homework, & exams to study for

Now its finals and you're scrambling 

in a panic 

Finally going to office house asking

"What can I do to change it?" 

JUST FORGET IT

That F will never be an A

You should have worked harder for your 

Grades
