D. Read Holly¡¯s song lyrics together with a friend

School is like a race

All tryin¡¯ to find a place

We spin all desperate to fit in, until we fall flat on our face

Just when we get back up, they kick it in the mud.

You know, the struggle is real,

you don¡¯t know how to feel.

So many selfies, you know it ain¡¯t healthy.

But you would not know the deal.

Who cares what¡¯s up online, there¡¯s so much more to life.

I got your back, you got my back.

Oh, we always have!

You and me, we shake this town.

Wild and free, we are breaking ground.

When the day is done, two is better than¡­.

Trying to make it on your own.

Nothing beats, friends home grown.

When the day is done, two is better than one.
