The validation I need,
The attention I crave.
My worth is based off
Some dumb letter grade.
I'll study my ass off,
I'll do what you ask.
I'm totally worthless
If I just barely pass.
Keeping up, though,
Is no easy feat.
I can feel it coming...
Soon, I'll be beat.

It reads well as both a literal restraint on your freedom and as a tongue in cheek sardonic commentary on arbitrary judgement. Nice
