(you're a Junior?)
(we're Juniors now, it's crazy!)
(haha, Lucio, come on Junior)
(I can't believe you're finally a Junior)
(now that you're a Junior, some things have to change)
(you're still my lil' Junior)
(ooh, yea)
Yeah, you got something for me, just drop it on me
People counting on me, it's draining to me, oh (draining to me, oh)
Some quiet for me, I'm trying to think
'Bout why I gotta write to the beat, that's crazy to me (crazy to me)
Some of y'all been acting too perfect or trying to be (oh)
Some people want that Valedictorian, capital V (capital V)
I just wanna write for my people, I'm writing for me
It's feeling like a Junior to me, oh
Yeah, I got time to write essays but not to write these (huh)
I got time for my studies but not for my peace (okay)
I got time in my cell, but not with the keys (mm)
I got time for my work, no time for my dreams (okay)
I got deadlines to meet, and people to please (huh)
I got things that I want, and things that I need (okay)
I got emails to send, and some to receive (mm)
I got facts to consider and facts to believe (yeah right, listen)
I'm too old to make mistakes, I'm too young for respect (ay)
I'm too big for wanting change, I'm too small for a check (yea)
Too far up for playing games, too far down for descent (uh)
I'm too strong for being saved, but too weak to protect, yeah (yup)
What's the point of being young, being dumb
Wanting peace, having dreams
If they're never gonna happen (yeah)
What's the point of a career, with the fear
In a year, it is clear
I'm not following my passion?
Ay, you got something for me, just drop it on me
People counting on me, it's draining to me, oh
Some quiet for me, I'm trying to think
'Bout why I gotta write to the beat, that's crazy to me
Some of y'all been acting too perfect or trying to be (oh)
Some people want that Valedictorian, capital V (yea)
I just wanna write for my people, I'm writing for me (oh)
It's feeling like a Junior to me, oh (Junior)
Treat me like I'm an equal
I'm here now, don't wait for the sequel
I'm done running around for these people (ay)
Done waiting around 'til it's legal (yea)
Done sitting around like I'm peaceful (yuh)
I'll circle around like an eagle, lethal
Wearing a frown in a week we'll
Be right back in class for the sequel, yeah
I fought for a place in
This world I was raised in
Amazin'
That's my reputation
My life is chance I'm
Not wastin'
Don't know where I'm pacin'
Don't know what I'm facin'
Don't know what I'm chasin'
There's no way that
I'm gonna give away all my faith complainin', yeah
Took some time for me to realize who I wanna be (what)
It's got me feeling free (ay)
And if I knew what I could do then there are many things (what)
I would do differently, yeah (that's right)
I'm not asking for respect or any other thing (what)
But I can guarantee (ay)
You're gonna give it to me, yeah
You'll give it to me
You got something for me, just drop it on me (yo)
People counting on me, it's draining to me, oh (yea, yea)
Some quiet for me, I'm trying to think (oh, shh)
'Bout why I gotta write to the beat, that's crazy to me (oh)
Some of y'all been acting too perfect or trying to be (woah, yea)
Some people want that Valedictorian, capital V (yeah, uh-huh)
I just wanna write for my people, I'm writing for me (woah)
It's feeling like a JUNIOR to me, oh (no)
