Empire State of Mind

I was raised to look out for field goals. Never look back in regret, do what you have to do, and keep my head up. Some of these kids couldn't tell a subject from a predicate, yet they know every lyric to "Face Down, A** up". I would shake my head, but at the end of the day, I know where I'm heading and I know how I'm going to get there; college. Therefore, I wont complain that my homework is too hard or that my math teacher needs to change the way that she teaches. I'm going to study harder, grind harder, and keep working at my job. Money may not grow on trees, but on payday, I make it rain. Better believe that when the time comes, the GOOD girl always makes it to the top.
