Highschool, what am I going to do "Start high as high as you can" Latin and sciences It was great, I passed everything Math and sciences My motivation is missing Nothing adds up Behaviorsm and languages But I can't pass French Nailed it just barely "What is happening to you" Nothing adds up
There's a glimmer in the distance They all say don't go there Tears in my teacher's eyes Please don't leave You can still make it Don't throw this away But the canvas is calling me The soft brushes and crayons The colors and pictures The creativity is there
I built my skills up And I take the extra lessons On landscape drawing I stop showing up Nothing makes sense I fell asleep in class My body gave up "What is happening to you" Nothing just leave me alone Second semester, great record of attendance But my motivation is out of reach
Lost the year, what now Technical studies, that's me And I found my tribe The grasp in my neck That I needed Someone who sees through me That was you and I can't thank you enough Just for being who you are The class is full of freaks Just like me This is where art school payed off
You took my hand Asked me no questions on my past And pushed me through Like there was no question That I would make it Graduating year Somebody wrote it on a piece of paper "You can do anything, if you want to"
The path to that which we love isn't always straight and being able to pass things of intellectual nature doesn't mean it will make you happy.
