Big fish, little pond Swimming round and round Eating up their words of praise, I do not make a sound Big fish, little pond Growing large and fat Wishing for a bigger pool but don't know where it's at Big fish, little pond Too big now to fit Suffocating in this space that makes me want to spit Little fish, big pond Little fish is scared Swimming in this land of sharks I do not feel prepared Little fish, big pond I can barely move I thought I would be big by now, I thought I would improve Little fish, big pond Trying to survive Wish that I was large, but here, I'm not even alive

Little Fish
Big fish, little pond Swimming round and round Eating up their words of praise, I do not make a sound Big fish, little pond Growing large and fat Wishing for a bigger pool but don't know where it's at Big fish, little pond Too big now to fit Suffocating in this space that makes me want to spit Little fish, big pond Little fish is scared Swimming in this land of sharks I do not feel prepared Little fish, big pond I can barely move I thought I would be big by now, I thought I would improve Little fish, big pond Trying to survive Wish that I was large, but here, I'm not even alive
Thoughts on my transition into college I like rhyming
