Cold desks and broken dreams.

That's all this kid sees.

Everything that she believes

Is broken like her dreams.

She once imagined the world

as hers to hold.

But then she had a teacher

who thought nothing of her.

He told her she couldn't do it.

He told her she wouldn't make it.

He told her she should forget it.

He told her she needs to drop it.

Now she dreads the school.

The one place she thought learning was cool.

She's lost all hope.

Now's shes turned to dope.

All we want is a chance.

Don't give up on first glance.

Or we'll all end up believing

In cold desks and broken dreams.
