My alarm clock starts booming
and I start assuming,
that today is just a regular day
in my boring life that it just, okay.
The bell starts the ring
and my mind starts to sting.
I don’t care what goes on
When school’s over, I’m gone.
Through math,science, history, and reading
I close my eyes and begin daydreaming.
Top ranked prospect, straight out of Monti
Headed down south, scholarships await me
Playing football in the dominant SEC
Living nearly 60 minutes from the sea.
Piping up the crowd, during a big, must-win game ,
quickly heading towards a glamorous, life of fame.
Winning a heisman before I go
A championship too, now I’m a pro.
Drafted to the league number one overall
New York Times reading “First Pick, Ready to Ball.”
I snap back right into reality
to see my teacher looking mad at me.
“Nic, you need to listen here,”
screaming loudly in my ear.
“ We are learning about William Shakespeare.”
Who cares about that guy, he’s from the past,
This class is so boring, how long does it last?
I put my hand down and go back to dreaming.
Looking in the stands, all the fans screaming.
A few seasons in,  you could call me a vet
You see me driving in a cherry-red Corvette.
League MVP and some Pro Bowls as well,
This is the dream life, really quite swell.
Drake, Wiz, Obama, and Hart,
Are all my good friends, that’s not the best part.
Married to the love of my life,
So happy to call her my beautiful wife.
A successful career  is all in the books,
Super Bowl rings, in the case for looks.
I open my eyes, and reflect on my thought,
Everyone is staring, looks like I'm caught.
I don’t care about that, I have no shame
In dreaming of a life, full of fame
This is the high life, I’ll get there someday,
But for now I’m stuck,  trying to pave the way,
Be ready to see me, on the world wide news
Being the best, with nothing to lose.
