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
