Ditching school does that feel right, leaving your education behind
Emptying your mind of the fond memories of walking home
Getting yourself a drink from McDonald's, trying to smile as always
Even if you dump out your book-smarts & streets-smarts into that same street
That you now walk on, live on, stay in that area type of feel
If you can't afford to stay in a hotel even for 72 hours, than come home
Come home with me, let's see if I can help you graduate Swiftly
With the most fondest memories that you actually loved about school
Like for me it was becoming very close with my friends & teachers
Walking to my parents or grandmother's car with my siblings & somе of my friends
Ditching school does that feel right, leaving your еducation behind
Emptying your mind of the fond memories of walking home
Getting yourself a drink from McDonald's, trying to smile as always
Even if you dump out your book-smarts & streets-smarts into that same street
That you now walk on, live on, stay in that area type of feel
Swiftly, Swift, Swiftly learning, slowly thinking, soaking up all the education
Field trips to Disneyland, field trips to health centers, parks, or other places
Close to my heart, close to my average grades, close to anything that is special to me
Move like a fox, just move like one even if eavesdropping is involved
I'll take the blame at some point for you, cause even I can't learn things that Swiftly
I can't lean on your shoulder all the time, I can't always learn things fast like other people
Other students with Master degrees, Diplomas of expertise, no, no, no
Cause I'll memorize everything, every skill, page to page, pencil to paper
Pitter-patter of my fingers on my laptop, sitting in class or at home in my living room
Saying correct or incorrect, on my graded papers, a golden star. Or a donut with coffee
If you can't afford to stay in a hotel even for 72 hours, than come home
Come home with me, let's see if I can help you graduate Swiftly
With the most fondest memories that you actually loved about school
