“What If”

Pressure Pressure
Temple pounding
I have to do well
You know I can do well

Girl you know you going somewhere
Is what I always hear
But where, what if?
Mind racing to beat every dead line

What if I attend college?
To sidewalk high
Dimes and Nickels their asking me for
Boy you know what that could get you

A bag of potatoes
And may be some Lego’s
Ashamed to see my family
Looking up at the sky

Asking God why
What did we do wrong?
To have my heart so high
And now she’s floating in the sky.
