[Chorus]

i should’ve been in school… but I was skipping class… out with my friends… and they all was skipping class… our grades were really different… probably shouldn’t have been skipping class… but I did it everyday… cause I loved skipping class…

left with the football team… but they wasn’t skipping class… left with the basketball team…. But they wasn’t skipping class… they were my alibi… how I got away with skipping class… Monday through Friday… I repeated skipping class…

[Verse 1]

in the morning when I woke up… i wasn’t thinking bout skipping class… I was focused on my grades… but my friends were skipping class… they who taught me how to do it… when I started skipping class… did it for the right reason… but I was wrong for skipping class…

sixth grade when I started… elementary skipping class… name on the team list… so they didn’t know I was skipping class… teacher never called my momma… so she didn’t know I was skipping class… would’ve had my tail whooped… if she knew I was skipping class…

what I did ain’t none of yo biz… but I was a kid skipping class… so I’m a tell yall the truth… about the kids skipping class… I was robbing stores selling drugs… all skipping class… homeless trying to get a meal… as a kid skipping class…

see my family was broke… Couldn’t afford me skipping class… so they sent me to job corps… cause there I couldn’t skip class… see my brother snitched on me… mad cause I was skipping class… grade was still better than his… as a Student skipping class…

[Chorus]

i should’ve been in school… but I was skipping class… out with my friends… and they all was skipping class… our grades were really different… probably shouldn’t have been skipping class… but I did it everyday… cause I loved skipping class…

left with the football team… but they wasn’t skipping class… left with the basketball team…. But they wasn’t skipping class… they were my alibi… how I got away with skipping class… Monday through Friday… I repeated skipping class…

[Verse 2]

seventh grade I quit skipping… waited til ninth to skip class… we were in another city… it was easy to skip class… I quit skipping at the end… spent the whole day skipping class… found a legit job… made money skipping class…

chicken house I was working… in the garden skipping class… got paid cash money… and I loved it skipping class… use to detail cars… when I was skipping class… got paid cash money… and I loved it skipping class…

kid with a bankroll… I was that skipping class… only spent 3days in school… the rest I was skipping class… cross the state line… in the studio skipping class… 2 thousand 1 my c d dropped… I was skipping class…

blue phoenix amazon… I was a father skipping class… never knew my mental children… I was too busy skipping class… if I could go back In time… I would not be skipping class… cause I set the wrong example… for my people skipping class…

[Chorus]

i should’ve been in school… but I was skipping class… out with my friends… and they all was skipping class… our grades were really different… probably shouldn’t have been skipping class… but I did it everyday… cause I loved skipping class…

left with the football team… but they wasn’t skipping class… left with the basketball team…. But they wasn’t skipping class… they were my alibi… how I got away with skipping class… Monday through Friday… I repeated skipping class…
