you only write once scholarship slam


Can you hear me from where you are? Im feeling alone where I am I can't help but wonder if I'll go far I miss your helping hand I was accepted to my dream college did you see that? Are you proud? I'm really hoping to attend but those prices. Theyre just so loud Mom is trying but she cant support me, financially of course Although I wish it was easier for us Shes my strength, what a force Can you see the long nights I stay up studying Working towards my future? You always told me stay in school Ill hold on to that forever The grueling hours of essays and assignments making my brain sizzle The worth of this dream will make me smile as im basking in my career Happy times will shortly come once I work out this college puzzle It may be 5000 pieces but every piece has a place Half of the picture is almost complete Im just looking for your face Can you hear me from where you are? because I'm talking kind of loud I can still hear you over here I know ill make you proud
