Teach.


You sit there in your seat. In front of me. 

I can see you think your better than me.

That i won't amount to anything. 

But teach' you dont know me.

You dont know my life, my struggles, my hustle.

Go to the lunchroom and talk about me and my fellow classmates.

But just know that one day you will need us.

WE are the geneartion of tomrrow.

That doctor you will need in 10 yrs, well that'll be my man right here.

That mechanic you will go to when your car is being a piece of trash, that may be brad.

Teach I cant stand how you sit and think your so much more.

You have such little faith in us. 

How do you even call yourself a teacher.

Dont judge us based on our struggles.

Base us on our minds.

And im sure once you do that your mind will be blown.
