Just Read

Reading is fundamental That’s what I like to do It stimulates my mind, No matter what I read Reading should be incorporated In everybody’s daily routine A lot of people might not understand Why I’m saying this But most of the people do They know what I mean You see, I’m always reading, Everywhere I go A billboard, a book, Even a street sign and even some magazines It enhances my vocabulary and expands my knowledge It helps to keep me grounded I understand why it’s so important for us to do There’s a lot of people hoping and praying That we don’t use it Come on, help me spread the word So our people won’t continue to be illiterate Instead of shooting and killing And makin each other bleed Do something more constructive Pick up something and learn to read
