[Hook]

What's the curriculum, educational courses
Counselors picking 'em, better make some endorsements
And change it up quick, held hostage, and college is a
Prerequisite in exchange for common knowledge

[Verse 1]

Rummaging for lyrical inspiration from schools
Literature, tools, it’s like trying to find deeper meanings
Out of stories more shallow than the kiddie pool
I’mma die boarder than my mind stuck in textbooks, let’s look
Elsewhere and stare into the distance
Then I realize I catch eyes with an alternate existence
Female in form, she adorns her surroundings
Astoundingly beautiful, to think, I could have missed this?
Jump out of my dorm with a quickness
Storm out the scene to redeem the cure, for my illness
Feline in nature, it’s called curiosity
Possibly nothing, but still worth acknowledging

[Hook]

[Bridge]
Common knowledge, common knowledge
Prerequisite in exchange for common knowledge
Common knowledge, common knowledge
Prerequisite in exchange

[Verse 2]
Ditch my own classes to see what she’s about
Without a doubt, she excels academically all throughout
Periods 1 through 6 I stay scoping out the cutie
She displays class, got the brains and the beauty
Thoroughly impressed I contest with subordinates
Who relinquish the [?] unlocking the coordinates
Move in for the kill, initiate introductions
Names are exchanged, I’m invited to a function
Scene 2, unbeknownst to you
I am the king of all clubs, crush a pub in two
Between factions my actions reveal the truth
Spot my queen in between the booth
My words melt her guard down and the sound we hear now is love songs
Now that our arms and hips drawn, it's match point
Although conditions are choice, we disjoint
It’s deuces, excuses disappoint

[Hook]

[Verse 3]
It’s when you play without a full deck, course correct
I’m on my mark, and I’m getting set
Wreck the patterns, the caverns, with a shot and the needy see
Got their guilty pleasures in their hometown taverns
Back to basics, lacing up the Asics
Running to remember the feeling and so I chase it
Misplace the memory, doubt I can replace it
But maybe it’s better in the end that I erase it
