Who Taught You

Back in the days, began schooling at a tender age Gender wasn't the issue, we were happy sharing the moments I mean Sunday school were the best days for me Its' evident that some began their careers way back U gotta be thankful for your teacher, who noticed your dream early Can't lie, was crying and holding on ma mama Didn't want to be left with strangers I didn't know Until I came to understand they meant no harm, I opened up Holding a pen and paper become my dream come true Been taught how to read and write, fulfilled my ambitions The truth lays in the steps I have left It's a struggle to get done with your dreams I ain't through yet, Who taught you? That's a question that can't be answered directly The journey has been long, with shortcomings, I haven't reached the end I have just began and I ain't going to stop, till the road ends
