Teach

Yeah we will ride the wave
Ride it through the grave

Forefathers rise up from a house of dirt
Thier mothers swallowed by the very earth
Generations of pain of suffering
Under the weight of crime and poverty

They struck their fortunes on the ocean tides
Before the shadows of all those who died
Running toward the lands of opportunity
Root their families in freedom and security

We're gonna find a home. Where your minds will grow. Yeah
You got to struggle, struggle, reap what you sow

We shall ride the wave. That culture's mother gave

I'll make you learn. I'll make you learn in spite of you
See your wheels turn. Soon you'll be thinking for yourself
Oh yeah

Young teacher stands in front of thirty-nine
In the classroom made for sitting twetnty-five
Fighting to light the arc of education
In the vaccuum of care and motivation

We cannot live within the epicenter if we stay like slaves
To the machines we enter
Fighting to end the cycle of dependency
Gratification must follow the adversity

We're gonna find a home, where your minds will grow. Yeah
You got to struggle, struggle, reap what you sow

We shall ride the wave. That culture's mother gave

I'll make you learn. I'll make you learn in spite of you
See your wheels turn. Soon you'll be thinking for yourself

Yourself, yourself
Time to ride the wave come on
Time to ride the wave come on
Time to ride the wave come on
Time to ride the wave come on

We shall ride the wave
Ride it through the grave
