I have a message for the beginning of spring
All i gotta say is do the right thing
Gotta graduate and get your degree
successful kid from the hood thats what im gonna be
I got bars for days //
But rapping is not a profession
Open your notebooks and copy down the lesson
Its better than getting caught with a smith and wesson!!!
All i ask of you is to pay attention
Now you sittin in detention with years to life
You know if you do something you gotta do whats right//
So get those grades
Because we live in a city where the future is paved
Where money is made
And the love in the air wont fade
Its a pretty fair trade
Money , car, clothes and even a maid
Im out here studying hard to just try and get paid
With the red bottom loafers make sure they all suede//
What ever happened to college tuition
Getting high grades as a competition
Im just sayin make that decision
Where in the future you know youll be livin
