[Intro]

GDO

Let me take you back to the year two O sixteen

That trip down memory lane will help tell what GDO mean

Just finished high school I'm waiting on the finals results

I know I barely studied now I had a rapid pulse

[VERSE]

Was chilled until I heard results dropping that week

I'm sure I fainted coz that night, I swear lacked sleep

Then Hyphen Apped me, "Wake the fuck up, you passed!"

I saw the dummie's message when I woke up yeah, and I laughed

Then I checked, and it turned out it was true

Told my bro who was sleeping, we was sharing the bedroom

He got excited like he the one that passed and told momma

I've never seen her that happy, she expect that I'd cause trauma

I was trying to rub it in, but then she was too busy hugging

She called the blood and friends, her ecstacy stopped me from bugging

Of course I got congrats, and "What you wanna do" the subject

And if I was gonna be local I had no idea what it

Was

I wanted to do, Iwas indecisive

Almost took a gap year the way I took my fucking time and

The only school I applied to accepted me for business

But response from sponsorship was taking me a minute

Just to tell me they indefinitely ain't sponsoring that selected course

It's enrollment time, school's starting, was in a mess of course

So I had to choose a new one quick, and since I don't know what to ride with

I decided to go for Bachelor of Science

So I have time to decide and advance my chances of going overseas

Was under pressure but I knew I had to oversee it

But they told me it's too congested, can't be enrolled to that

So I had to change again, only had 12 hours to plan

So I heard nursing's first year was basically BSc

So I thought I'd still change courses as I proceed

Into my sophomore, and yeah my first year was the time of my life

I fucked around and shit so much, I might've lost a wife

Shit, but that's a different tale

Now done with first year, I'm shocked that I didn't fail

Tried switching courses internally, started forgetting Yale

It was too long of a shot and at the time I was derailed

And plus I started feeling like maybe I shouldn't do this

I'm just putting up for my mother otherwise, screw this

Had times where I looked in the mirror and just wondered, "who this?"

Though it was my decision, I didn't fucking choose this

But anyway it's too late, time to change my sponsorship contract

I had to keep bugging them, coz they wasn't keeping contact

Year 2's begun, can't register, finances ain't cleared

Went down to sponsors' office, so my mom's could go hear...

What the hold up was, it's been three weeks since school commenced

Then she called to tell me they said I cannot change since..

I'll be doing first year the second time, that ain't they're policy

And the whole world collapsed, that is how I felt probably

So I registered for classes, ain't had a sad moment in a minute dawg

Imagine doing something you just ain't fucking with at all

Was even home for a week, feeling like Ice Cube one Friday

Had a morning glory, had to start my day the fucking right way

Sat next to a cute shawty on my way to school

Even holla'ed on the highways, took her number, she was cool

Arrived, chilled out the class, waiting for my lecturer to land

Music on shuffle, my mind wandered back to the plan

Lecturer walking into class, but I walked out to the loo

Coz there was something in my mind, not coz i had to go poop

Rinsed my face over the sink, looked in the mirror, I'm thinking

What the fuck am I doing here, man, this shit just isn't

What I should be doing, chilled out on the benches to reflect

I knew what I really wanted and, this just isn't it

Felt like they was trying to trap me into something that ain't my passion

This ain't something that I planned, what the fuck, goddamnit

This just simply ain't what I am about

Shit, started thinking that I gotta drop out

I gotta drop out, I gotta drop out

(Fuck this shit!...)

[OUTRO]

I'm seated in an exam room

Revisited the plan dude

And realise this shit ain't for me

And even wrote a rap dude

On the question paper

Knowing life will test me later

But every dream comes with a price

And sacrifices must be made bruh

Walked out early, they probably thought I really killed that exam

Nah I'm just crazy thinking I can make it from killing raps

I left a route that wasn't mine, I was like "fuck the highway"

Like a spoiled little brat I decided I want it my way

I want it my way

I want it my way

I want it my way, yeah
