Schoolyard (Part 1)

Sittin in this desk Already done with my test I didn't take it up front because I refuse to be teacher's pet And yet I keep glancing at the clock that says eleven-thirty Man time is dirty I really feel teachers don't teach Like a preacher may preach Or the way a lifeguard may patrol a beach In class I feel smart but so distracted You can compare my brain to Jimmy Neutron's You can't contrast it Can't showcase my intelligence But I reflect on my negligence I feel when I'm home It brings chills to my collarbone They say I'm the class clown But inside I frown How can I uplift my classmates If I'm dragging myself down I'm too notorius to be the popular boy Too depressed to feel joy Sad because I quit the track team due to responsibility intervention I got a jump start on adulthood to my intuition Life is one challenging game And the earth is my competition I've never been a wussy But forever no respect for a bully He comes by my seat in lunch Jump up and choke him is what I hunch Witnesses and bystanders It's a bunch He grabbed my shirt and said "Give me your cheesecake" I reply "Go Philly someone else's cheesesteak" So he swung at me I reacted happily I stuck my fork in his eye How dare I! Moments passed I lost my vision Ten years later... I'm an inmate in prison........
