"Back in the Day (incomplete)"
Song Lyrics
[Marked Soldier]
in seventh grade i never made and impression
not even half of my stress was based on academic things, i had the tension
cuz i didn't like the way things worked, it just hurt
too much to go to school every day and get laughed at by jerks
who did half assed work, and passed with c's while i was failin'
no one saw the correlation between my stress and my depression or
made it any better by prescribin' me drugs,
only my parents gave me hugs, i never knew i was a thug i
always thought it would be cool to be stupid
the only kids that i was cool with weren't ruthless or competitive
in any way, shape, or form. i was the only fuckin freak in a sea of a hundred norms
but then i started realizing i wasn't a loser in my junior year
now i'm a microphone abuser, i'm 'cooler' than most people here
i see it clearly now that i've got self esteem
it's fashionable to be a scrub, but i'm the only one who knows what it means
