Education and a diamond in the rough
Diamond in the rough…
Life is disheartening at times
you know things get tough
But that’s when I’m regenerated by my families love
Primary school, I attended 4 and missed 6 months in year six
I had set backs, but you know when you’re a smart kid
I knew my stuff, with attention paid, I picked it up
But in class, my excitement was just a bit too much
Secondary school, this is where the foundations grew
Year 7, full of attitude and a point to prove
Year 8, settled and continued to disrupt miss
Year 9, the end of this year I upped it
Year 10, focused, but I wasn’t perfect
Year 11, walked out with 10 GCSE’s.. Priceless.
I made it through, but education wasn’t finished
I tried sixth form, my secondary school was linked with it
History, Sport, English Lang, not lit
Scrapped that tho, my ucas points didn’t cut it
College to do Sports and Exercise Science
Went with my cousin, I had a small alliance
I witnessed disappointment, so I went in and hard
Ended up with 2 distinctions and one with a star
2nd semester of uni and I’m feeling it
Sport and Exercise Management teaching me bits
I’ve been in lectures, seminars, library for 5 hour shifts
1st class for all modules. I set the target
I pulled the arrow of education and I got the middle spot
1st class grades for my 3 exams, says a lot
My work ethic and my belief to do well is what set me apart
Believing and dreaming for better, that was the start
