Used to get straight A+
Now I'm struggling,

Used to receive flowers
Now I get stung by the bees,

Used to get praised for A+
Now I get hate for A's or B's,

Used to be that 'gifted kid'
Now I struggle to maintain it,

Used to slay without studying
Now I can't slay even after hours of practice,

Used to sleep without worrying
Now I worry if I'd be able to sleep,

Used to like school
Now I despise every thought of it,

Used to love myself
Now I just hate myself.
