Maintaining
I've got a weight on my back
And it's been there for some time
Education reform is what I would attack
Ensuring an education for every child, is the pursuit I must climb.
Back in Brazil, I can remember it very clear
There was a maid, in my host mom's apartment
She would work hours on end, oh how she was sincere
I gave her son my used laptop, feeling so ardent.
Good intentions overflow
Wish all young children could be treated this way
The chance to have a bright future, let opporuntity grow
And in the end of our lives, we can say no child was led astray.
As I continue through the course of my life
Everyday, I discover new ways to fight for their education strife.
