I ain't even wanna go in the first place But I thought to myself, damn, what's the worst case I'd gain a couple thousand fans, and show 'em I'm the man But this been feeling more like a workplace 'Cause in my classes I ain't learning 'bout shit So instead I read articles to understand the biz 'Cause with the music, nobody is fucking with the kid Always been a brainiac, just gotta use that to get big Walkin' 'round campus Saying to myself this ain't happened how I planned it I got a lot of music, I just need them to demand it and hand in The money, to help pops finally understand it You ain't gotta be mainstream to get cream I don't need no college degree to get green To stop them from sleeping on me, I quit sleep And deemed that everything against my dream I don't need I ain't wanna let no one down But I can only making one of us proud I wanna dropout I know both of y'all are saying to me "not now" I gotta go get this degree, go down a couple thou I really tried but I wanna dropout I hope you ain't thinking that your son's a copout Momma, honestly this shit don't feel right to me I don't mean it spitefully, but I been above the minds of these People that's trynna be, just part of the society They was forced to find degrees, but I can't be confined with ease I know you'll probably understand, dad's the one I'm worried 'bout And I ain't making big money, so he'll surely doubt I'll finish this year, I don't just wanna hurry out But I'm sorry to tell you, I'm dropping out of Missouri, wow I can't believe I had the balls to go up to my father And tell 'em the blessing of education don't mean shit me I mean I'm working harder than I ever have, so don't worry dad I will never let the struggle get to me 'Cause I'm the one that's gon' be working double time And feeling so disgraced, I can't look in my parents eyes I flipped the bird to school, now I'm feeling so ostracized I'm sticking out my neck, hope it ain't met with looks as sharp as knives, I I ain't wanna let no one down But I can only making one of us proud I wanna dropout I know both of y'all are saying to me "not now" I gotta go get this degree, go down a couple thou I really tried but I wanna dropout I hope you ain't thinking that your son's a copout Dad, thank you for the opportunity But this ain't what I want, this is more you than me And truthfully, I know you'll always root for me I hope you don't see this verse as rude or weak 'Cause I been sittin' in class knowing this ain't my place I can't embrace anyone here, they don't relate To making their own business and getting kicked in the face I'm one of a kind and that'll never change I feel like telling you this, you feel like I'm giving up But this the point in my career where it start picking up And I stop making excuses and start getting love Even in the flashing lights, I'll always be your little bud I wanna leave and really give this my all I been holding this in, I don't know why I stalled Made this song 'cause it's easier talking to a wall Please pick up the phone and give me a call I ain't wanna let no one down But I can only making one of us proud I wanna dropout I know both of y'all are saying to me "not now" I gotta go get this degree, go down a couple thou I really tried but I wanna dropout I hope you ain't thinking that your son's a copout
