Attitudes,How do they teach


Attitudes,

How do they teach me? 

Smart remarks,

How do they help me?

I'm defiant?

I just want to learn.

Rowdy classes and rude students,

do you care?

You just pass us 'cause we're here.

Teach me, Involve me,

Or at least get to know me.

Apparently I'm nobody to you.

Just another thug,

and another teen mom.

"She'll never amount to anything in the long run."

Your WRONG,

I will beat the odds.
