Agitated, strung out, underrated
Limited, and boy, do I hate it
Dead end stops and my life is in park
So I hit the alleyway after dark
Got school tomorrow, but what the hell
I'm leaving school when I hear the lunch bell
I'm not asking for time off, I'm taking it
Fuck school 'cause I ain't making it, making it, making it
School, a place I don't really want to be in
The day I say I give up, that's my reason
Yet I'm undetermined to continue with my studies
Laws that confuse so I chill with my buddies
They draw power down, no one to date
Suicide on my mind as I resort to escape
My ups and downs and my highs that you me-mellow
Born to suffer, living in the ghetto zone
Criminal, criminal, criminal
Well, not exactly
I'm just being what I think I have to be
When people tell me about getting grades up
My reply, "Am I getting paid or what"
See, seriously, I need security
More security than any school can be
And on the street I put a whole damn stake in it
But fuck school, cause school ain't making it, making it, making it
I had to fight yesterday in the school auditorium
Some dude, he said that I was pushing him
He made a big fuss, I had to bum rush
When it was over, my man had his face butt
See, I don't play that shit, I'm on the deep end
You want trouble, just tell me when, friend
Success, I ain't contemplating it
The way I see it, I ain't making it
Right, in the morning my alarm awakes me
My moms won't cause the bitch, she hates me
Failing all my classes, I don't give a damn
Half of the teachers, I can't even stand
Never made first period for one year straight
Forget a diploma, it's education that I hate
I feel like grabbing my books and just draping it
Cause the way I feel, I ain't making it, making it, making it
I got a letter today from the principal
Said I still had a chance to make my life chill
I might try it, it might be cool
Flip the feeling around, make something good out of school
But on the backup tip, I still have the streets
That's if the streets will still have me
And if not, no need in faking it
Point blank, I ain't making it, making it, making it
Making it, making it
