I gotta paper to do, I haven't done shit.
Hate school right now cause it's not worth it.
For my music, well it's the deterrent.
If part time was an option, I'd prefer it.
There's a better solution? Cause I haven't heard it.
Guess I'll wait on you for the final verdict.
Wanna write for myself and not for others.
I'm bored with doing literary covers.
Every essay's the same, and I'm going insane.
The syllabus is lame, the discussion's inane.
Thirty copies in class with all the same points.
Nobody looks at things from different vantage points.
And still you say that all the papers stink.
Well maybe it's because you don't ask us what we think.
You shoot out a prompt with a played out rubric,
but all I wanna do is just make some music.

Gotta speech to give and well I'm not prepped.
Hoppin on stage though without a missed step.
Here we go now cause I'ma follow your rules.
Stupid or not cause it's what you choose.
Using Monroe's and if this works, wow...
Ha..yea... You know I don't know how...
Sound like a broken record, cause I'm supposed to,
assume you can't understand what I say or do.
Start from the beginning after every few lines,
if I go on for more than a minute at a time.
Just rinse and repeat, till you give me the sign.
That tells me now, that I've run out of time.
You say it's called reiteration,
but to me it's a lack of concentration.
But whatever the case, wanna get back to my place.
I miss it there, I got some tracks to lace.

Ah crap, got a test to take.
I could've studied more, if not for the last take.
More important to me, so was that the mistake?
No extra credit cause now it's too late.
Let's see what happens and leave it to fate.
Go on with the final at any rate.
Drifting off and wishing I was back home.
So I could go just record on my own.
Start writing yea, and get into the zone.
Just me, the mic and my pair of headphones.
Isolated here is where I wanna be.
It's the only way I can get inside of me.
Turned in the final and it's not pretty.
Can't believe the work, cause it's just that shitty.
You may have the grades and it's nice you can prove it.
But leave me alone cause I just want my music.
