Lyrics to: The College Life



Verse 1

[They say it's cool to be in school man...I Least that's what I heard...CUNY...(You got a scholarship? big up to you) SUNY...Community College...University...Nabruesion...Historically black colleges...un-huh...Gochii...big up to all y'all...Check it]



Check out how I polish my sound

To the point I draw the right crowd

and talk about the college lifestyle

Age eighteen out on my own

no parents crowding my zone

do what I want now that I'm grown

this day couldn't come fast enough

so drunk that some class I cut

headache and hungover from the frat party

gradually

get back to the road to that degree

maybe tomorrow we'll pack arbys

Til then y'all I'm a stop

head to the dorm call mom and pop

say I'm doin' good and promise I

visit them when I get a break

term paper hope I get a "A"

finished it stayin' up all night

cause my scholarship only cover the price

of tuition if I get good grades

like I can pull "A's"

all the time just not on good days

cause everybody knows suspicion tha-tha-tha-that wou-wou-would raise



Hook 2xTimes

You gotta like

the college life

it's outta sight

we got our colors, we party alot of night

we represent our school we give it alot of hype

and we study extra hard cause this is the college life



Verse 2

[Check it out...Yo!..College y'all]

I've determined

I'm not here for only higher learning

I am working

so when I leave I am certain

In the work force I am earnin'

Cheese that is

green that's big

pull up on the block and tease that kid

that laugh at me for goin to school

knowin them dudes they don't care though

I stayed focus stayed on the clear road

got good grades like "A's" no zeros

listen to what I say to your earlobe

parents knew from the age of a year old

I'd be college bound

I be droppin that knowlegde down

it is what it is and y'all cannot silence the sound

but professor

I'm perplexed sir

please dont fail me the semester

I cheated I messed up

least I came clean and I confessed up

I ain't have time to study

my schedule is a challenge

(Well now you know young man college is about balance GOODBYE!)

[aww...sigh]

Verse 3

[yea]

I couldn't walk away without touchin' on

girls walking around without nothin' on

at spring break in cancun

on the sunny beach gettin tans too

OMG this is brand new

to the freshman

next question

can I get your number - just text me

no problem yes sexy

after that we back to the campus

you didn't do nothin' have some manners

it's too late now you had your chances

we goin' back home

back to the zone

back to the books, back to the dorm

back to the woods, back to where its calm

full time schedule back to the long

days and nights back to the norm

sweet thing is once we start classes

in a few weeks it's our classic

numero uno March Madness

mascots and sports barackets

Our school doin' them in

whole crowd screamin' in unison

we cheering them on so our dudes could win

this is college - YOU IN?

[That's college yall...yessir....college is where it's at...I know college not for everybody but if you get a chance to go take advantage of it...They say over the course of a lifetime it's a good look...I'm going back to school too!]
