Education is Key
From a young age, we have all heard that "education is Key"
But what about those that cannot afford to pay for that key
Those that have been struggling through their lives
I'm talking about moving from place to place
Getting kicked out and spat on by reality
That strong mentality started to slowly degrade
Ended up spending the rest of their life thinking they were worth nothing
Not having the knowledge or mindset to do nothing
Looking for the slightest bit of light but they could not find anything
The economy might be bad but take a chance
I am talking to the President, the Mayor and the Governor; all of those in power
Give them a chance
Lend them a hand
And help them perceiver
You might think all the loans will help but that is a false reality
Understand their stuggle, even if they are looked at as rats
Take some time and view their minds
You will get a visual modality
See their future plans and help them reach their goals
Those in power have to help make their dreams a vivid reality....
That is all I ask for!
