2015 ,I became a freshmen you see

but as a young girl I did not know I was fresh meet

during that time I was running to compete

a student-athelete that had to be light on her feet

scared that my world is not what it's going to be 

A girl who had no idea how to be me

 

2016 .I made it as a sophmore

But college classes tends to take up more

Also trying to adult , like a baby bird trying to soar

Then I have practices that always ends up me doing core 

Struggling to pay my bills is a huge uproar 

My "uncle" offering  to  help with this burden of a chore

Little did I know there was more he was looking for 

To the point he took advantage of my temple and became a conquerer 

 

2017 , I finally made it as a junior 

still not understanding as to why I am so hurt 

which led me to deciding that I needed to red-shirt

mad at the world , because it led me to the dirt 

mad at myself , everyday my life feels like its going to burst 

Asking God to strengthen me now with positive spurts

No longer feel comfortable wearing a skirt

Even though I know I was not the first

 

2018, It is complicated to understand

I am technically a senior , but to NCAA I am under that band

Talk to God and we have finally came up with a plan

Feeling more confidenr without the need of a man 

Getting better grades, like I know I can

National qualifier , seeing my friends in the stands 

A beautiful black woman by popular demand

Finally everything good is targeting to land

 

2019 nothing technical I am finally a senior 

An All-American, running times at sea-level that does not convert

Reminising all the things that put me through the hurt 

Rewarded by the email , that says "Graduation Alert"

Getting ready to walk on that stage , no need to rehearse 

Excited for 2020, getting my masters , in the family I will be the first
