Just Be There

Just be there
The kids need your presence 
Be their guide and shield 
In order for them to make progress
Stress the importance of education 
Be the beacon of light 
Show them tender-loving care 
Teach them to do what is right

This reminds me of the Nike Slogan - Just Do It! Maybe it is not Nike, but I think it is. JUST DO IT! This should be our battle cry, Brooklyn Six!
