From start to Finish

 I was blowing my smoke in the sky,
Ignoring advice and getting high
Copied homework from the night before,
Passed notes, flirted and made jokes
Bathroom breaks to smoke a cig,
Skipping class to get it in
While her parents were away at work,
Take a shower and to school I returned
Bong hits before gym class,
Inspiration buzz in art
Never hesitant, always had my friends backs
First to throw a punch
Meet me after school or lunch
I choose to live a life of fun
Skipping practice still player of the game
Party animal, beer pong king
Hot boxing every chance we get
School busses and locker rooms
Late to class not giving a shit
If it’s not in the moment it was irrelevant
Part time working to pay for events
Passing classes, falling in and out of love
Dabbling with a list of stupid drugs
Playing paper football in detention
Drug tests and councilor interventions
Days of college applications
Receiving my diploma at graduation
The moment that tied it together
Prom with my high school sweetheart
After party, running the beach naked in the dark
Last day of school, smoking on the roof
Wishing you could go back to the first day of school
To do it all again and again, without change a thing
Best and worse four years on this earth
High school…was what it was worth
