Remember My Name

Hey, Teach! Yeah, you-

Coach of that game.

I have an A in your class

And you don't know my name.

Your main focus are those guys,

The "populars", the jocks.

But I have talent too,

Please, don't be too shocked.

I bet none of your kids can sing 3 octaves

Or sight read on the spot.

They don't know what those words mean,

Yet you think they're so hot.

"Oh" you say

"I'm one of 'those' guys".

Yeah, and damn proud of it-

I'll never wear a disguise.

I take pride in my voice-

Its kinda my thing.

Just because I'm not running around

Doesn't mean I'm not first string.

Hey, Teach! Yeah, you-

Coach of that game.

I have an A in your class.

One day, the world will know my name.
