[Intro]

Uh, ok

I can give a fuck about a college tuition

I'm already on a voyage for the knowledge I'm missing

I be highly caffeinated when I'm off of the bean

They would want me in a class instead of following dreams

I say fuck that shit (right)

We gon' put it down, say fuck that shit (uh)

We gon' put it down, say fuck that shit

This my time, right? (right)

Sorry that I'm late, I'm tryna get my mind right

Gon' get your mind right, ay

Now gon' get your mind right, ay

Now gon' get your mind right (yeah, nigga)

[Verse 1]

Uh

Never in class, too busy watching the clouds past

I walked through senior year amazed, I'm thinking how fast

People switch up, now they want me to give up

Cause I'm making moves, instead, they want me to shit up

And waste my time, taking tests I don't need

They got these kids' mind locked, something I want free

I be a little bit of guidance if you feeling indecisive

And this is for my people suffering from senioritis

Like what, don't go to class today

Like what, don't go to class today

(My mind tell me) don't go to class today

(My momma tell me) take your grown ass to class today

[Chorus]

I don't wanna waste my time, no

I don't wanna waste my time, (don't wanna waste my time)

I been really on my grind, yeah

I been really on my grind, ay

[Verse 2]

Like Badman I got sick of class

Started making classics

Started writing poetry and turned that into rapping

Follow passions that had my doubters, rolling, laughing

Until they heard Curtis was diligent, really snapping

Like a sea turtle when I follow my wave

They never noticing the hustle till you balling for days

And getting money for weeks, how they treat you is cheap

I be the source of caffeine if you falling asleep

From honor rolls and riding these scholarships

To be seventeen, performing for college kids

I would be in class, no pass, what I'm jotting is

My Ideas shooting stars, no hollow tips

All my daydreams like movies, nights full of groupies

And they all bad bitches with nice round booties

Now tell me what you learned apply it and then divide it

I would, but my black ass suffered from senioritis

But I really want my mom to be proud

I never wanna let my family down

But I've actually found the main healer where my agony crowds

Think I've finally found sanity now

It's a tragedy how we buy things, just impressing they peers

They got jobs, not passions, so they really don't care

Oh, they mad cause I'm never in directions they steer?

A black kid with a dream, that's something they really fear

[Outro]

Everybody say fuck that shit

We gon' put it down, say fuck that shit

We gon' put it down, say fuck that shit

This my time, right?

Sorry that I'm late, I'm tryna get my mind right

Gon' get your mind right, ay

Now gon' get your mind right, ay
