Surrounded


Join this, apply for that

make a decision but don't look back.

Be remembered, do your best

make all A's and beat the rest.

If you fail, you'll be stressed

wearing a sence of defeat, you'll be dressed.

Time goes by, we get bigger

taking action, pulling the trigger.

Now we start over, 

in a place called college, 

where freshman are foreign

at least of my knowledge.

Striving for greatness, chasing the dream,

meeting standards of society's needs.

Feelings don't matter, what is the matter?

Being served with the hottest platter.

Now I shall continue, exploring my space

at least until the next occupation slaps me in the face.
