5 Straight Outta Compton Quotes That Relate To College

If you've ever seen the movie "Straight Outta Compton" then you know how inspiring it really can be. Besides the gangsta women, weed and unending raps - the message behind the story really shows how life is just nuthin but a 'g' thang. College can seem like it's an incomparable sense of craziness, but these "Straight Outta Compton" quotes are so relatable in college.

1. "Open the door man, c'mon open the door."

Please, professor, I know I'm 30 minutes late to class and look like I haven't slept in days, but if you would just let me in this one time and let me take this test!

2. "Y'all mf need to be gang bangin' them books instead of tryna be something y'all aint."

Time to get your ass in check and focus on school. Quit the partying every night, quit trying to talk to different girls every night and remember what you're paying all this money for.

3. "'50 dollars makes you rich?' 'It's a start.'"

I know I have $8.00 in my bank account, but that leaves enough for a shot in Buckhead AND food on the way back, I'm set.

4. "You don't care what I'm fighting for. I already know what I want to do with my life and it definitely ain't sitting in no cubicle on a bullshit ass job."

I know my major seems way too hard, I know it seems crazy that I'm actually going to school to be able to travel the world, but I promise I will not be sitting in an office at a desk for the rest of my life.

5. "Do whatever the f*ck you gotta do."

Professor, if you really feel like you can't bump that 89.34 to a 90 I understand, but just know I hate you and I'm rating you terribly on rate my professor, cause I gotta do what I gotta do.

I love "Straight Outta Compton" and it's not just because they are complete bad-asses, but because they took all of their struggle and turned it into some awesome careers and absolutely amazing records. They took the quote "started from the bottom now we here" to a whole new level. Ice Cube wrote the track "Boyz-In-The-Hood" and it changed their lives forever. Dr. Dre sold his beats to apple for $620 million and if that isn't inspiring then go watch the movie and tell me how inspired you are then.

One of my biggest pet peeves is when someone does not try to help their self before asking others. How can someone else be expected to help you if you do not first do that yourself? I'm all about helping those that need it when the time comes, however whenever someone does not even attempt to help him or herself first then that becomes a huge problem. As we all have learned, people tend to take advantage of us in one way or another. I am sure we all read this short story when we were younger and it follows that same principle:
