I Passed a Test
I passed a test
I took two steps forwards
I'm nearing success
But just as I leap
My heart begins to sink
Cause I am free from this test
But that doesn't free me from the rest
Before counting meant 1,2,3
Now I have to count credits
Do they all add up to how many I need?
If it isn't one thing it's another
I was so happy about this test
I almost cried
So many nights
I'd lie awake thinking
If only I could pass this test
I will be free as a bird
Flying from it's nest
But this test was just my test
I don't know how ironic that is
So here I am in a new state
A new mind
Why is it that the taste of victory never
Lingers in your mouth for long?
I have new obstacles
New roads to cross
But I will take in this moment
A moment where I felt
Extremely proud
For one instant no outside voices ruined my Joy
For once I succeeded.
I passed the test.
I made it through.
