Verse 1
Lecture slides like rivers flow,
Margins bloom with lines I know.
Group chat pings, the clock runs thin,
I stack my focus, breathe it in.
Library hush, a chair, a pen,
Small summaries become a plan.
Coffee warms the second hand,
Tiny steps that understand.
Pre-Chorus
Count to four, protect the spark,
Let the noise fade out to dark.
If I slip, I realign—
Calm the pulse, reclaim the time.
Chorus
Lecture halls & late notes, I hold the line,
Drafts turn to dreams, by design.
Lecture halls & late notes, this climb is mine,
Drafts turn to dreams, by design.
Post-Chorus
One small win—write it in.
Verse 2
Office hours, patient queue,
Printer jams, I push it through.
Budget snacks and borrowed light,
Gentle goals survive the night.
Calendar knots I loosen slow,
Turn the pressure into flow.
Name the fear, then mark it done,
Page by page, I face the sun.
Pre-Chorus
Count to four, reset the frame,
Keep it kind, reduce the flame.
Chorus
Bridge
Read, recall, trim the rest,
Rest, reset, do your best.
What I keep becomes my art—
Write the future, sign my heart.
Final Chorus
Lecture halls & late notes…
Outro
Drafts to dreams, by design.
