Late For Class Lyrics

[Intro]
Hi My Name is Pries! I'm new to class

Ladies and gentleman, boys and girls
College students around this world
I'm new to your classrooms. Uh huhh!
And they call me Pries - um - that's P - r - i - e - s, I was born this way
(Haha) I'm sorry I'm drunk
Let's dance, look at us now mama!
Three months ago nobody knew my name
You guys can take this though

[Verse 1]
Something like the Phoenix Suns
Thank god for my blessing, I know I'm getting one
Cause I ain't trying to live this life off of pay stubs
I swear I'm next in line for the greatest one
And Lord knows I try hard
Life is a reality check, I can't sign for it
Blank account overdrafted, shall I say more?
Or maybe in Church I should've paid more
Aha, dear lord let me live
I'm trying to see tomorrow cause today's world is shit
It seems like society has it's own fucking list
Tell me words of something that I miss [?]
I'm hoping I can grip, and [?] through the [?]
I love college parties but I swear I hate school
20 [?] but I was never taught the rules
I'm being a good dad cause mine left out of the blue
[Hook]
I fell my down, but I get up
Be my faith, when things get rough
In this hard, I can't give up
I'm just late for class

I fell down, but I get up
Be my faith, when things get rough
In this hard, I can't give up
I'm just late for class

[Verse 2]
My BM got me stressing
My charges - whoa - [?] is the blessing
Darkness fell in my arms I keep pressing
Holding on until another nigga steps in
Hey, this famous life's a bitch
How do I fall in love with this bitch
Turn around and have a kid with this bitch
But I'll knock a nigga out, if they ever call the bitch
Double standards is the life that we live
I only got one shot I can't miss
Cause the ball is in my court for my kid
And my goal is to make it, I'll be damned if I'm dribbling
[?] to fucking hoes off of [?]
[?], that was my mission
This whole gang got me slipping
I'm just late for class, I ain't missing!
[Hook]

[Outro]
Just late for class (uh huhh)
I'm just late for class, (It's Pries)
I'm just late for class, (Watch This)
I'm just late for class Hey thats me singing if you didn't know, um

And uh, I wrote this whole mixtape when I was living on the streets
So y'all know it's my turn to eat
Um, uh huhh!

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
