On a Barnes and Noble college tour
We do it for the tall folks but we coming for the shorty awards
Yea we want the title we repine BU
Nothing less than relevant
That's just what we do
Sittin in class a little bored but I never really stress
I'm just a shorty at BU, you know just trying to be the best
Breathe in, exhale, never fear the highlight reel
Just let it play day by day so that you know the feelings real
