Dear Teachers
Dear Teachers
are you aware
the way you're teaching
isn't fair
you follow the rules made by state
their restrictions held on too tight
but that's their mistake
you should teach your own way
and not be held down by chains
can't they see
students can't be taught the same way
Dear Teachers
the atmosphere in these classrooms
become such a bore
why not make learning fun
and shed some light into these rooms
our books are falling apart
page by page
we can barely make it by
how can we study
when all our resources are slowly disappearing
highschool should prepare us for college
but all I see is a babysitting service
Dear Teachers
you don't really care about
what you teach
but we're forced to listen
to those who can't teach
step aside
and let some inspiration in
you're suppose to be our guides
show us the way to our new lives
but when you don't care about your own life
how are you suppose to care about ours
Dear Teachers
you seem to care about drugs
and tell students not to take them
but how can we listen
to such hypocritical words
while we're denying them
you're out in the halls dealing them
some of you even buying them
how are students suppose to learn
in such a bad atmosphere
some of us don't even have parents to look up to
what are we suppose to do
when the ones who are suppose to be our guide
aren't even there to help us on our homework
Dear Teachers
our futures are held on by our faith
but their based on a belief
that with a simple test
we will be shown
if we're even good enough to have a good life
some students make bad decisions
but does that really mean there is no hope
even in the worst situation theres always a light
but you seem to dim that light
to all but those who seem to pass your own test
Dear Teachers
you are our role models
why not act like it
you should be setting an example
and helping us with our futures
we have no choice
but to depend on you
