All the days you went in sick

All the teachers you put up with

All the sleep you lost doing homework all night

All the tries it took to finally get the answer right

It was all worth it.

All the scholarship applications

All the test preparations

All the denial to plans 'cuz you had too much to do

All the planning for college without any clue

It was all worth it.

We go through these things with hope for success

We do all these things hoping for the best

When you're finished with college and you've taken your last test,

You finally realize that none of it was worthless.
