The best gets a full collage scholarship from the school that picks them. There are usually a lot if scouts picking how gets the scholarship.

"Kenna if you want you can go to music room C and start working on your song." my teacher asked.

"I'd have to check with my math teacher cause that the class I have next."

"it's okay go I'll tell her."

"her it's Mr. James not Mrs Konica ."

"okay I'll him then."

"sounds like fun lets do it.

"how bout you play guitar and sing and I'll sing the girl parts and play guitar to."

GET THERE

'She calls me from the car
idling in the rain
and tells me it's too hard
to handle all the pain
the pain of wanting more
and me wanting the same
I throw on my shoes
I run outside
and she's gone

all the things going through my head
all the things that I left unsaid
I'm soaking wet now but I don't care
where we'll end up I don't know where
but we could

Get there
cause with you I'm not scared
just tell me that this thing is not dead
girl I'm ready for the road ahead
I know we could get there

I call her from my car
racing in the rain
having conversations with
with her answering machine
if I'd paid more attention I'd know
all the places she might go
but I'm blindly swinging in the wind
cause of how blind I have been

all the things going through my head
all the signs that I should have read
I'm going down now but you don't care
I know I deserve this and it's only fair
but we could

get there

(don't give up on me)
cause with you I'm not scared
(baby took so long for me to see)
oh but tell me that this thing is not dead
girl I'm ready for the road ahead
I know we could get there (I promise we'll get there)

I'm sorry that it took so long
I don't know why I didn't catch on
oh girl I wasn't listening to you
when you told me that we needed to talk
told you "later" and I brushed you off
oh girl (I wish I could undo) all the bridges I burned
and I lived and I learned
you're the one thing I had that was true
and I know what I had
only now that you're gone
I'm a shell of a man without you
but we could (but with you I'll get there)

get there
(I'll get there
took me so long to see)
cause with you I'm not scared (I'm not scared)
just tell me that this thing is not dead
I'm ready for the road ahead
I know we could get there (with you I'll get there)
(I know we could get there you and me)

but we could get there (I'll get there)
cause with you I'm not scared (tell me)
tell me that this thing is not dead
girl I'm ready for the road ahead
I know we could get there
(tell me that you wanna make this work)
(tell me that I can change the way you're hurt)
(I just wanna be with you)'

"that's sounded cool."

"ya we are definitely doing that song Kenna."

"totally let's go fine Mr. jay."

"let's go."

when we got to music room A he was sitting working on the next song to teach us.

"can we do a duet?" tony asked quietly.

" I don't see why not."

"what song are you doing?"

"get there by drew steely."

"can't wait."

"bye gota go practice." I added

we practiced till the end of the day and them until we got kicked out of the school.
