I guess I'm a adult now
I've taken out a student loan
I've also made a savings account
I guess I'm a adult now
I'm saving up my money
And I've been quite frugal
I guess I'm a adult now
I pray to Him, I wonder if He even hears me.
My routine:
Alarm set to wake me up at 5:00 A.M.
After I awaken, I play some tunes.
I like J. Cole, Kendrick, Tupac, Jay, Nas…
There was an evil stepmother named Tuition
Her daughters Loan and Debt were on a mission
My Fairy Scholarship broke the fall
And I met my Prince Degree at the ball
But when the clock struck 12 I lost ambition
Confused sitting in the darkness,
sitting waiting for enlightment,
lurking on people waiting for them to offer,
but it's always the same story,
still searching, trying to be stronger,
applied for thousands,
I need help paying for college.
Let's look at this mathematically.
Now, a good college = Time x Money.
Everybody knows that Time = Money.
So, a good college = (money)^2

College leads to wealth and success in the future
That’s what they tell you
But for my future
All I see, is debt
Accruing, accruing until there’s nothing left
“Oh but there’s scholarships, and grants too”
Pay it forward.
Do the good.
Be the change.
Education is your stepping stone, no one will give you a bone.
the first time i poured my heart onto a piece of paper, i made my mother cry.
tears cascaded down her cheeks because my words dug in deep like knives.
i realized that the world around me could vanish into a vapor,
The Girl Next Door
Dripping in gold
I’m shining in the club
All the men, they want a chance to hold
Scholarship
Ship.
The sails full of promise.
Wind,
Only moving forward with
Powers of change.
You divulge memorized, compromised,
Bits and pieces of truths that will probably be disproven and morph into lies.
I know they’re supposed to hold some weight,
But you probably don’t realize I already have a full plate,
College
What a wonderful place
College
Ain't no easy phase
You have to pay for days on days
There's a problem you see
That's not just for me
How do we pay it?
I'm not the first to say it
I go to school
I do not complain
I do my work
and I make good grades
all of this work, for nothing it seems
for when I was young, I had one dream.
To go to college, without the stress
Need experience to get a job
Need a job to get experience
Need a job to pay for college
Need a college diploma to get a decent job
Only borrow as much as you can pay back a.k.a.
Hello University,
College life, where it all gets real;
The best years of your life!
Are they, really?
