About

This is a carefree song about senioritis. It really paints the picture of how I felt on top of the world as a kid about to graduate.

The outro features an excellent clarinet solo from Brad Terry, who came to my high school as a guest artist in one of our jazz concerts. He also stopped by our music...

Straw Lyrics

[Chorus:]
I've been working all day
I just want you to know
I'm alright, I'm okay, okay
And I, had a couple bad days
Let me leave 'em behind
I am doing just fine, just fine

[Verse 1:]
We're 'bout to finish high school
We still feel like dropping out
They ask 'bout senioritis
We act like we don't know what they're talking about
They say you gotta be more responsible
But goofing off kept the hair up in my follicles
I used to think that all kinds of things were impossible
Now I think of places we could fly rockets to
Get up, when you feel a little blue
Get down, when your high horse bucks
We get by, and we try, to stay high, off the ground
When inside, you feel down on your luck
I get up, that's just how I was raised
I get down, by the end of the day
I'll get mine, if I try, if I grind, if I shine
And there's no wall a president could build to stand in the way

[Chorus:]
I've been working all day
I just want you to know
I'm alright, I'm okay, okay
And I, had a couple bad days
Let me leave 'em behind
I am doing just fine, just fine

[Verse 2:]
I'm trying to finish this song I just can't help but laugh
I got my day ones with me
Man, the shit I could've been mad about is all in the past
I'm making beats, writing verses, getting sleep
Even sitting at a desk I'm really thinking on my feet
And I'm still a little lazy, but it's mostly cuz I'm me
And I still could smack a rapper, I don't need a 16
Now get up, I take it serious not
So when I get down, it isn't much of a drop
And you'll see, that for me, that that bachelor's degree
Will probably take a little more than what I already got
Now get up, worries never do help
I'mma keep doing all of this shit for myself
And for now, I'll lay down, with my head on the desk
And keep on sprinting at the doors right at the sound of the bell

[Chorus:]
I've been working all day
I just want you to know
I'm alright, I'm okay, okay
And I, had a couple bad days
Let me leave 'em behind
I am doing just fine, just fine
