I understand that you're human

You need to understand that I'm human too

I understand that you have bad days like everyone else can

You need to understand many things can paint a teenager blue.

I understand that you have your own life

You need to understand that I have one too

I understand that grading papers and putting up with attidues might bring you strife

You need to understand that we are dealing with more things than just your class and you.

I understand that you want quiet

You need to understand that I try to balance

I understand that you think all we do is cause a riot

You need to understand that we aren't in a circus; we can't pick up everything and be perfect with the balance.

I understand that this might be your worst class

You need to understand that we don't always mean to be

I understand that you're so sick of the sass

You need to understand we are just trying to survive.

We are just trying to be who we are.
