To the Four

Location

To the teacher that ruined my dreams:
Thank you.
To the teacher that ruined math for me:
Thank you.
To the teacher that always made me harmony:
Thank you.
To the teacher that never had time for me:
Thank you

Because of you I am different today.
Because of you I have learned to run away.
Because of you I will always feel lonely.
Because of you I won't do what they told me.
Because of you I will never be like you.
Because of you I will never cure the flu.
Because of you I have a stronger voice.
Because of you I still stand by my choice.

To the teacher who laughed at my mistakes:
Screw you.
To the teacher who refused to explain:
Screw you.
To the teacher that ignored my refrain:
Screw you.
To the teacher that caused my family pain:
Screw you.

Because of you four I have not found myself.
Because of you four I adopted somebody else.
Because of you four I gave up on my hope.
Because of you four I made silence of notes.
Because of you four I am stronger now.
Because of you four I will not back down.
Because of you four my anger is checked.
Because of you four I will graduate best.
