The Mentality Of an American Student
A diamond
A piece of coal that has withstood years of pressure
A diamond
A stone so hard that it is nearly unbreakable
Diamond
We are the diamonds
Or at least coal so far
Coal going though the pressure of life
Cracking every moment our GPA slips under a 4.0
Every moment a friend chooses another friend
Every moment we are called a disappointment
Narcissistic, sarcastic, good for nothing teenager
With nothing to give the world except a half baked promise
That we will educate ourselves enough to get a job that we hate
To help the economic structure for our nation
Our proud nation
That we don’t even recognize anymore
Forced to be in a build
