Failure

i was a grade A student in elementary
but i got older and tried conformity
i didn't have any friends
i lost my favorite dad
i spent my days flushing papers away
and now i'm wondering if i'm ever gonna make it

oh god
i'm having nightmares of my high school teachers
oh god
they said i'm smart but i'm just too damn lazy

i went to college and for once i was focused
tried not to date but i just flat out failed it
went through the muck of psychological deformities
my diamond in the rough had yet to implore me
and now i'm wondering if i'm ever gonna make it

oh god
i'm having nightmares of my high school teachers
oh god
they said i'm smart but i'm just too damn lazy

and now i've been there with you
we have to make it come true
all the dreams we've suspended above our heads
could you be what i need
to accomplish my dreams
i feel you're part of my future just like my career
i'll try so hard for myself while you be somebody else
but now i know with you i'm sure i'm gonna make it

oh god
i'm having nightmares of my highschool teachers
oh god
they said i'm smart but i'm just too damn lazy
oh god
my biggest nightmares are of you not being here
oh god
i know i'm stupid but i'll fight for everything i love
