Reject - Reject lyrics

Dear Zarek
We’d like to thank you for your application
There were 80
000 applicants across the nation
Here are some FAQ’s for decision information
We’d like to thank you
Again for your consideration

I must have refreshed gmail page
About a hundred times
Checking the unread messages first 100 lines
Oh man you didn’t get in? Well I did
But it’s fine college isn’t the end
You’ll have your chance to shine

But it was everything to me
And only now I see
It is everything to those who
Live in my community i did anything I could
To shield my insecurity
It was a penny fling into
The bank of universities
I don’t like to admit it Physics
Got the best of me
Maybe I would have gotten in if
I had took the ACT
If I was a different race I
Would have got in scott free
Then I wouldn’t have wasted my life oops
Forgot to breathe

College isn’t everything, College
Isn’t everything, college isn’t everything
But it was everything to me x2

SD was nice I could have lived by the sea
Or see myself succeed if I got UIUC
Didn't get into Slo
Maybe cause I was too slow
SB was super harsh, man I didn’t even know

Didn’t get UCI, I guess my GPA’s shy
Didn’t get into Davis
I don’t wanna guess why
Didn’t get LA, too little work and all play
Didn’t get Cornell either, Hey man you okay?

Didn’t get CMU, say it’s not true
It was a longshot but that program’s
What I wanted to do didn’t get into Berkely
Man that one was mean
I’ve wanted that one since there was
No number one in the eighteen

But lately
My heart drops at than computer screen
Congratulations mean nothing to average teen
Who didn’t get any
I don’t want to hear what you mean
College isn’t everything? yeah
Except everyone's dreams
