Public School

Are you ready for it?
We ready for it!

Most of my teachers didn't teach me shit!
Chiefin' in the locker room, fuck English lit
Oh why oh why oh why did I have to take woodshop?
Instead of speaking French, when I went there I could not!
A lot of truancy because they couldn't influence me
To fluently spew it the two couldn't do it congruently
So I learned culture, rock music, rockin'
While I rock up that polka, Pac on my poster!
So now I'm part of it when I used to fear it
I learned a lot of shit but most would not clear it
Some were scared of me and would not come near this
People failed me but music lifts my spirit!

They writing on the walls, fighting in the halls
This education kicked me in my fucking balls
They fighting in the class, fighting in P.E.,
This education is un-educating me!

You're in my head
You're mine 'til I'm dead

I am my mother's child
And I wish I knew what I know now
I am my teacher's favorite
I made it and I don't know how

Are you ready for it?
We ready for it!

Most of my teachers didn't teach me shit!
Chiefing in the locker room, fuck English lit
Oh why oh why oh why did I have to take woodshop?
Instead of speaking French, when I went there I could not!
A lot of truancy because they couldn't influence me
To fluently spew it the two couldn't do it congruently
So I learned culture, rock music, rockin'
While I rock up that polka, pac on my poster!
So now I'm part of it when I used to fear it
I learned a lot of shit but most would not clear it
Some were scared of me and would not come near this
People failed me but music lifts my spirits!

First day is a bitch Think I'm one to ditch Cause you ain't teaching me shit. I was bored with the classes they gave me
So I stole the books that I wanted
And taught myself to think different
Now I'm the number one independent rapper in the world
