The Perfect Playlist-23-Will Atkins

It's 8:00 in the evening. I finished school at 3:15, then went to my least favorite activity, Track practice, until 5:00. From there I go work out at LEX Fitness to work on the rest of my body. Great. It's now 6:30. Oh wait, now it's time to go to church for youth group. Fantastic, I don't even get to eat dinner in between. It's now the aforementioned 8 o'clock. It's a 15 minute car ride home. Then I get to start my homework. How in the hell am I going to motivate myself.

I KNOW. MOTIVATION MUSIC.

1.  "All Me" -Drake. This song talks about how I've done it all myself, and that I've gotten no help, and after a day like I go through it's nice to be reminded that I didn't get sh** for help along the way. Cause I made it this far with no help, I can go a little further and kick the crap out of this AP Calculus homework.

2. "Rick As F***"-Lil' Wayne ft. 2 Chainz. Few things motivate me to do stuff. One, is money. Will, go pick up sticks. No. Will, I'll pay you $5. How many trashcans you want? So when I hear about me and my FRIENDS living it big. I want to do that. How do I get there? I go to my room and hit the books so I can get good grades and get into a good college and get a good, high-paying job. BAM. Motivation.

3. "Pursuit of Happiness"-Kid Cudi. This song simply speaks about people trying to get in your way and trying to stop your, "Pursuit of Happiness." I love it when I have something pushing me and getting in my way. I react like, "nah, you ain't gonna f*** with me. Let's go." That's the way this song makes me feel every time I listen to it.

4. "The Man"-Aloe Blacc. This song is just awesome and it talks about how awesome I am. It says I'm the god d*** man and nothing is gonna stop that from being the case. It doesn't have the fasted beat, it's really more of a blues/R&B feel to it, but the lyrics just make me feel like I can do anything.

5. "Trophies"-Drake. Here I could of put a very obvious song like, "Started From the Bottom," but instead I chose this song because of a simple few lines. "If I was doing this for you, I'd have nothing left to prove, no. This for me though, I'm just tryna stay alive and take care of my people. And they don't have no award for that. Trophies. Sh** don't come with trophies." Enough said. Motivation.
