“When you grow up, what are you going to be? A doctor, an engineer, a mechanic, what? A fisherman trawling his net in the sea? Better choose, don’t want to leave any door shut But aren’t we all too young to decide? I need more time, to think, to live, to learn, I promise I’m not taking the system for a ride, It’s just my future path I can’t discern. So now I’m back to try once more. Grade twelve, part two, gonna give it a go. It is your patience I must implore, I promise I won’t just play Nintendo. Because it’s not that I don’t give a crap. I just really need to take a victory lap.”
