The Academy

It's just like...
It was
5 Years of my life
That's not really something you just forget about
Move past

Sometimes I'll go to sleep and dream, this is what I see
I'm in the middle of a forest I'm surrounded by the trees
I hear the chirping of the birds and the babble of the stream
Everything is as it seems and it seems it's at peace
Ain't nothing like my real life where I'm fooling in the streets
Hiding round the corners while avoiding the police
So I live inside my dreams cause it's where I want to be
Then I wake up and scream at my mom to let me sleep

So Fuck ya'll that forgot about me
Said "Free Wedo" when it went down but you never call and just ask about me
Morning comes I wake up drowsy
Every day feels like I'm drowning
Life preserver, somebody help me
But none of y'all even care about me
When you fall you get back up
But damn I fell so far
And ya'll don't even hit me up
That really breaks my heart
I really want to rise above
I don't think I'm deserving of
But now I do not want your love
Yo fuck it just give me the drugs

Art is made from pain so you should call my ass Picasso
I been tryna find myself, all I've found is that I'm lost though
They think I'm easy going, I'm just unsure what to follow
I guess that I'm unwanted is the hardest pill to swallow
I spent more time on music than my college application
Why is it my parents chose the life that I be chasin
Now I feel off balance on the ground that I've been standing on
I think their worth of me is just the number on a scantron
I've been in the Scripture I still call myself a Christian
The only difference is I admit that I've been sinning
Their biggest problem is they're stuck on the tradition
Kicking out the screwups but don't check on their condition
You're a disgrace to religion, only care about tuition
Imma say it really loud now that I'm gone I hope they listen
Change.org 200 names on the petition
I never even met the people making the decision
Guess I'm not a good student, didn't follow the directions
I ain't gave the wrong answer, y'all asked the wrong question
More worried about the punishment than the prevention
Yo CVCA, the road to hell is paved with good intentions
