Lyrics Post Graduate Struggles - Rules Man

Seph got the waves
When I thought I was alright
When I thought I was alright
When I thought I was alright
Ah, yeah

When I thought I was alright
That's when the whole thing began
When I fell right at the end
No one there to pick me up
Everybody started showing me
Who they really were
Graduation ended up
Turning to a trip to hell
When I thought I was alright
That's when the whole thing began
When I fell right at the end
No one there to pick me up
Everybody started showing me
Who they really were
Graduation ended up
Turning to a trip to hell

As the year done started out
I had all the dreams and hopes
NQF Level 6 with the music on the side
Try'na go get a degree
And I thought life gon' agree
Could not even raise the fee
Because nothing is for free
Then I had to watch my peers
Moving on and levelling up
Wasn't ready for reality
I paid a heavy price
Another year without a plan
Another year without a bag
Never had a place to live
When I couldn't get a job
I never thought it could be real
A Graduate who's unemployed
Do I even blame myself
Or the whole economy
They threw my CV's in the bin
Some were never calling back
Now I know how my Ex felt
It hurts a lot to be rejected
I wanted to be ejected
And put back at 22
When I was top of my game
Now I'm losing everything
People showing what they are
I got nobody but me
People love conditional
Only when you can provide

When I thought I was alright
That's when the whole thing began
When I fell right at the end
No one there to pick me up
Everybody started showing me
Who they really were
Graduation ended up
Turning to a trip to hell
When I thought I was alright
That's when the whole thing began
When I fell right at the end
No one there to pick me up
Everybody started showing me
Who they really were
Graduation ended up
Turning to a trip to hell

But don't get me wrong
Not feeling sorry for myself
Neither should you do the same
Irma get back what I lost
Self respect and the will to live
I just told myself to try
No more falling down from here
The only way now back is up
I learnt a thing about backups
And back up bags and bank accounts
And beggars beg but winners take
And losing me was fuckin' worse
That's what broke the camel's back
Now the Goat is gon' return
Going hard now no return
Practising the self control
Concentrate on better things
This could be my final shot
So I better not mess it up
Now it's time to cross the line
What I want Is gon' be mine
If I don't get it I move on
Stepping up into the role
If I don't get it I move on
Stepping up into the role

We will be okay
We will find a way
We just keep going on
And feel alright
We will be okay
We will find a way
We just keep going on
We are still alive

When I thought I was alright
That's when the whole thing began
When I fell right at the end
No one there to pick me up
Everybody started showing me
Who they really were
Graduation ended up
Turning to a trip to hell
When I thought I was alright
That's when the whole thing began
When I fell right at the end
No one there to pick me up
Everybody started showing me
Who they really were
Graduation ended up
Turning to a trip to hell

It's anonymous, what the fuck!
