One life Two life Three life Four I thought I knew I plan and pursure But when its almost here The finish line falls And is no where near My college ends my program Now what do I do? Do I start elsewhere Or end my pursuit? The second choice of 42 thousand After talking with them its up to 84 But what about life and living there? Well now its 115 and my hope fades away That cant be impossible There must be a way But after some thoughts I realize the cost Maybe elsewhere, Perhaps more near? Well thosell cost less But wont be the same. Do I drop the thought? Do I end it here? Perhaps theres no need Perhaps theres a way I think and I think More and more About just what to do Because we are poor We arent poor in love or happiness Thats what family and antidepressants are for We arent poor in money either But once experienced Its hard to change We arent rich But we arent poor So why is money Still the deciding factor? School, College, University What ever you call it, its all the same They just want your money And to boost their fame At what expense What do you have to pay? For a modest job you probably wont like Only the 1 in 3 chance of taking your life Perhaps not perhaps youll win the fight That 1 in 3 college students fight. Well if you win and if you fight Now comes the problem of paying for life The debt it gives is so substantial That they lie and say its just circumstantial Perhaps their right Perhaps thats the way Just dont go And regret it for life. But maybe not Maybe youll make it And one day become famous And be adored both wide and far Just to be pushed further inside Where only you will see The pain and agony Put on by society That is until one day They wake up and find How you truely felt on the inside You had it all So much to live for And no reason to die But now your hanging there Like Robin Williams who never said Good Bye

The Choices of Life
One life Two life Three life Four I thought I knew I plan and pursure But when its almost here The finish line falls And is no where near My college ends my program Now what do I do? Do I start elsewhere Or end my pursuit? The second choice of 42 thousand After talking with them its up to 84 But what about life and living there? Well now its 115 and my hope fades away That cant be impossible There must be a way But after some thoughts I realize the cost Maybe elsewhere, Perhaps more near? Well thosell cost less But wont be the same. Do I drop the thought? Do I end it here? Perhaps theres no need Perhaps theres a way I think and I think More and more About just what to do Because we are poor We arent poor in love or happiness Thats what family and antidepressants are for We arent poor in money either But once experienced Its hard to change We arent rich But we arent poor So why is money Still the deciding factor? School, College, University What ever you call it, its all the same They just want your money And to boost their fame At what expense What do you have to pay? For a modest job you probably wont like Only the 1 in 3 chance of taking your life Perhaps not perhaps youll win the fight That 1 in 3 college students fight. Well if you win and if you fight Now comes the problem of paying for life The debt it gives is so substantial That they lie and say its just circumstantial Perhaps their right Perhaps thats the way Just dont go And regret it for life.

This explores the different avenues life can take but primarily focuses on the one for college.
