Schools’ concerning me, students today, growing in circles and It worries me
They been convinced by teachers they can’t be what they wanna be
Teachers be salty prolly cause teaching ain’t they destiny
They’re working jobs in front of our eyes it’s like a preview scene
And we’ll be casted real soon
Hitting snooze
On our alarm work for bosses like they’re our God
Parents and they not caring we have to work on their time
You hate the schedule but you can’t complain cause you chose the life
Of slaving
You not saving the children out of this matrix
Basically schools’ designed for the guys to get used to failing
School is designed for all of the girls to find bad relation
Ships and they sinking under the sea you seeing my statements
I done got me started
I’ll never forget the teacher that called ya boy retarded
I was light hearted back then don’t think my heart was guarded
All of my guardian angels silently, surrounding
Rounding up possibilities of hitting all my targets
Target practicing for my tests but dawg I rarely passed them
When I failed them I felt my dreams would probably never happen
When we fail them we feel like failures
That’s why minors trapping
Out the house while their baby brothers on the mattress napping
Self esteem always lacking
Smarter kids overlapping
Guys like me they always laughing
School the reason they sappin’
Expectations for black kids
Cause of school I imagine ate
Bout this future we mapping
Dreams are dying it hurts to watch and I can’t deny it
Kids don’t feel like they have a purpose they’re always crying
The Devil smiling the smile of hate
It’s hella childish
Just flash that boy with the Bible
He can never fight it
Like Undertaker you’re undefeated chosen you have a reason
Your reason may be different than others yeah best believe it
Social media’s ruined the eyes their vision is see less
Peeping through my peripheral sight I see students beefing
Bleeding some hands were thrown back and forth, attention was needed
Tweeting the latest fight don’t you know the president sees this
His twitter fingers are lethal, he’s dying laughing and screaming
This topic ain’t over until someone gives me a reason
