Yeah, this is a story About my four years in high school An important chapter of my life Let's take it back It all started in the year of 2014 When I was just getting started as a youngster teen I didn't have many friends always hiding behind the fence In my defense, I was just tryna do my best Kids made fun of my swag cap on Yik Yak Man, those were days that shit was just straight facts Taking useless classes, just so I could pass this Year without having bad grades or a bad test This is my life (life) this my fight (fight) Gotta stay strong live long no strife (strife) This year bites but it teaches me well To reach new heights and to chase that light This is my life (life) this my fight (fight) Gotta stay strong live long no strife (strife) This year bites but it teaches me well To reach new heights and to chase that light I finally made some friends, I finally felt content Joined the Hills swim team so I could play and stay lean Went to my first party, had some Bacardi Got drunk and wasted, those shots had me faded Was in my friend's quincé, had fun and danced crazy Those were the good days, just followed my own ways As June finals came, I started to feel a little shame Might not see my friends next year, shit they might not be the same This is my life (life) this my fight (fight) Gotta stay strong live long no strife (strife) This year bites but it teaches me well To reach new heights and to chase that light This is my life (life) this my fight (fight) Gotta stay strong live long no strife (strife) This year bites but it teaches me well To reach new heights and to chase that light Went back to the same halls, felt a little appalled To see a couple old friends come up to me and talk Class a little awkward, stare at the SmartBoard Had to go and make new friends or I'll be bored Met my tight homie called David Kim We loved making music, me and him He was like a brother to me, even helped him make beats He started a band: Drums, bass, guitar, and keys Performed our first show, it was kind of an assblow But, we got ourselves up there and gave our best go Shoutout to my band: Owen D, Nat, and David Became my closest homies, it must've been fate see To meet such wholesome, dope, and cool people "Yo true!", "So ghetto!", good laughs and fun jokes, yo Smoked bud my first time, had a really good high No Fugazi band trippin', always good vibes This is my life (life) this my fight (fight) Gotta stay strong live long no strife (strife) This year bites but it teaches me well To reach new heights and to chase that light This is my life (life) this my fight (fight) Gotta stay strong live long no strife (strife) This year bites but it teaches me well To reach new heights and to chase that light Junior year came around, was a big black cloud Dark days, dark ways, no one asked if I was okay Contemplated death cause the school system's wrecked Stacked my APs just so colleges could see How hardworking I was, except there was no cause Family issues took over, lots of fighting over Stupid shit like dishes, trash, dirty clothes, and closure Ran away from home, left my parents all alone Shouldn't have done that, so I finally ran back Get yourself a best friend like turtle Tori Sen Helped get junior year done with her super silly puns Always there to talk to, always made my days fun This is my life (life) this my fight (fight) Gotta stay strong live long no strife (strife) This year bites but it teaches me well To reach new heights and to chase that light This is my life (life) this my fight (fight) Gotta stay strong live long no strife (strife) This year bites but it teaches me well To reach new heights and to chase that light The final chapter of my high school book, the Common Apps had me so damn Mobb Deep shook Applied six colleges only three replied, the essay that I wrote was strong and fortified Senioritis kicked in, I tried to go and kick it Went to a party got crossed and faded Then the cops pulled up, had to jump off the deck Ran like hell I thought the end was in full effect As the months went by, I started to say goodbye To all the friends I love, I was too shocked to cry My boys James Bai, and Mike Raginsky Through the last 4 years they were brothers to me It's hard to forget happy moments like these Like my last time playing piano at Carnegie Two concerts, one month, Lauv and 88rising A talented artist and Asian rap rising May comes around, I'm no longer a teen Decided on Drexel, I'm in the Philly music scene High school prom night, had my girl by my side Only lasted 4 months though, I had to let her go The end is getting closer, it's time to get sober Went down to the beach and got hella sunburnt But now I gotta graduate, despite how much I really hate Losing my friends, my family, my story- wait My story doesn't end, it's only a quarter covered Met a cool roommate, yeah he's Mario's brother Last family vacation then school is in session Cruise ship, islands, road trips, photo sessions At least now, I'll be sharing my brother's legacy Two Drexel Dragons man, isn't that a lil' crazy Life is unpredictable, I gotta be adaptable Mom, dad, 我会想你, I love you so much, this is me
