“got a degree but what that cost you? you make a good salary just to pay salliemae. that’s real as ever ducking bill collectors like jehovah’s witness when they showed up at your door at christmas.” - j. cole, blow up
adulthood is not all its crack up to be. and at this moment this particular lyric defines my state. my student loans are due and i don't have a proper job. all i really want it is a good salary so i can pay off my loans and pay for gas. the struggle is real. but what i love about this particular song and j. cole in general is that i can relate it to. seeing that i grew up in the suburbs outside of la, i grew up loving rap but never really being able to relate to a lot of it. so when i can actually relate to a song it becomes a favorite.
