This is life....

Thu, 09/26/2013 - 10:57 -- Itchy

You've all been to school and have seen how it works, 

All the weirdos get picked on as class drags on

not a single person stands up so they stand up themselves

and the teacher see them retaliate 

who do you think gets sent to the office

not the bully that's for damn sure

No teacher ever sees the pain the antagonist causes

It's cause they don't pay attention when it's those who need it

When a kid with money or in sports gets yelled at it might as well be a crime

but when a kid who lives against the grain goes home everyday to cry all alone

nobody sees it cause they're not one of the hive

If teachers would listen and punish those who deserve it

that little girl in hand-me-downs might not feel so worthless

With the right people in the wrong under the microscope maybe the world can be a better place

Let the good ones run free

allow them to be happy

but then again what do I know

I'ma victim as well maybe I'm just bitter

Cause no one ever said the things I'm saying and now once they're said nobody is listening

The people there to ensure a better life are making life terrible for the kids who already need a better life

When the teachers turn there backs it's a war on weird once they face the class what do they hear?

The victim in it all standing up for themselves and who do you think they see as the victim

...someone else....

How do you right the wrong when you're put in the wrong when you know that you're right

and no one helps you and you're pushed out of sight

Teacher need glasses hearing aids or something

so they can see they're punishing kids who have done nothing

it's easy to learn when there is no distraction

so eliminate the distraction so these kids can learn fractions

instead of sitting alone crying they can be someone better without even trying

change needs to happen and it needs to happen now

but hey don't look at me you already know how.....

this is life

.....but it shouldn't be....
