[VERSE]

Wrong alarm time set, now I’m upset

Last night I should have checked before bed

I’m riding the bus in my grey sweats

Sweatin from the run to the bus stop, atleast I made it

Not enough sleep, brain dried up like a raisin

Feeling groggy, I look outside and it’s foggy

Look down at my phone and it’s low on battery

Just a bad morning it happens to everybody

My professor wouldn’t wanna hear a sob story

So I’m makin an effort to try to pay attention

Organelles in the cell, the topic he mentions

I slowly find myself slipping away

Day dreaming about how someday

I’ll be on the pier looking out into the Bay

Then my eyes shut the blinds to a dark space

Notes I wrote you can now barely trace


[HOOK]

Falling behind in school, all the new

Material’s pilin’ up, not enough

Time to catch up, come back, and I'm

So late to class, now I need to podcast

Falling behind in school, all the new

Material’s pilin’ up, not enough

Time to catch up, come back, and I'm

So late to class, now I need to podcast


[VERSE]

A tap on the shoulder awakes the beast

I’m not gonna get on my hands and knees

Put forth my gears into drive and steer

Pick up the baton, and lift my heels

Procrastination, an unhealthy sensation

Front to back cover, until the day ends

The dog chases the van with hopes to catch it

They laugh at the dog, it seems so far-fetched yet

Who could’ve imagined the rappers in the mansions

I’ve got a lot to cover, but I’ll manage as long as I put in the hours

The power of hard work will pay off with what I will then deserve
