I want to go back to elementary

When the only fights you had was when you gave jimmy a graham cracker instead of John and John got mad

but you guys made up by recess

When the only stress you had, was when Patricia took the crayon colour you want and there was no more in the box

When you went home and went on and on to your mom and your pops

about the day and your ma was happy because you were happy and you were happy there

And you were only sad when you have to leave

These days you don't even talk to your mom when you get home cuz you get home so late

Even still what were you supposed to tell her, that you were holding back tears all day?

Suppose you can tell her

If you tell her then you hurt her

And you don't want to hurt her cuz you love her

And that's a bummer

And you hide all the pain inside

And you wake up , put makeup

And make up a whole bunch of lies

Saying that you're fine

Walk inside and say hi to everyone that you find

Going to a place where you feel like your dying inside

Where everybody and their mother got something to say

But when u confront they turn their cheek and just walk away

Where administration sees transparent while your drowning in a loop

And when your anxiety level is going through the roof

When they push and pack and weigh things down

Expecting you to lift it up while ur drowned

In your head screaming I can't take it no more

Counting the minutes till you can bust out that door

Elementary wasn't like this , elementary was cool

Going back to the days I went to elementary school
