The Best Years of Your Life

Location

Depression, stress, anxietyWords linked with school societyWords linked with suicide and liquorThere's something wrong with this picture   Piling up homework, Lower gradeWhat happened to being an aidLack of time and sleepLead students to become weak   What happened to finding ourselvesNow we just put our dreams on the shelvesSchool leads kids to drop out, quit Persuaded to take a hit  "Oh shut up you're exaggerating" No one listens to what we're saying Is this all in our head?Are we crazy?"You're just lazy"  I can't take it anymore, I want it to stopIs it all worth it to get to the topCollege this college that Death finds the welcome mat
