Shit I wish I can say to my teachers.

They say you're here to teach us how to read, to write ,to act. 

Yet I don't see none of that.

Teach us to get ready for the world.

Yet we sit in class bored & in our heads fantasy images swirled.

Just because you're a teacher doesn't mean you know how to teach.

You say you're only here for the pay check.

I hope that was a figure of speech.

Many of you don't care if we fail and the others you pass right through.

You're tenure you say.

Ha, so let me report your ass and find out if that's true.

We are not blind , we know why you're here.

Which is why many of us want you to disappear.

Just because you're a teacher doesn't mean I give you my trust.

You don't know me and your ways were unjust.

I can't wait to graduate and get the hell out of this school.

You say I won't have a future. 

Well I will prove you wrong , you mother fucking fool.

I am not saying that all teachers can't teach. 

I am pointing out the ones that could not preach.

They knew they had a job safe in teaching.

But I'm sure the government doesn't have a problem impeaching.

You never did your job right.

I'm not trying to be racist , but most of them were white.

I want to go to school to be able to learn.

So I can have a future that's my main concern.
