Donwill - Faculty Lounge Remix lyrics

DONWILL Check inside the faculty lounge Tape is holding it down You can catch a teacher seated by the window Tryna take a breather Either that or strangle one of these little demon heathens Try being hired and holding two positions The same time as art teacher and admin a**istant You gotta work through lunch They trippin in a rough school district sh** -- man listen One time for my people on the front lines When summer's over they can fight the war inside A lot of times underpaid, overqualified And overworked cuz this ain't a normal nine to five Strive to strive somebody gotta make a change Fight for rights stand up this ain't no time to lay They say those who can't do, teach Well those who can't teach ain't got no room to speak SAMMUS At the beginning of the year I really had to reconsider My students didn't care About the lectures I be giving Didn't think that I could do it Like dividing over zero But I think I'm breaking through Cuz I'm providing them with heroes Who inspire to aim for higher than a lil' Deniro Now they fired up and want to fight the power with the people Truth is really k**ing me Like I'm in a drive-by We ain' tellin history that ain't about a white guy! We got 'em learning 'bout biology and chemistry Think about if we could teach the works of Public Enemy It's really as important as endoplasmic reticulum Matter fact I'm gon' be redoing my whole curriculum I'm taking whitey out I'm putting Biggie in I'll make 'em write about the k**ing of the indians My principal is gon' be mad at me now For what I'm spitting in the faculty lounge - ha! HOMEBOY SANDMAN My kids is on d** Half they took at home, half the school gave 'em They's told that school would save 'em Nuh-uh School enslave 'em My principal wasn't stressin' education That b**h was more concerned with decorations Talking 'bout I need more posters Any minute cops could rush in itching to pull they toasters out they holsters How am I supposed to teach a cla**? When just a period earlier students caught a nasty temper from some tenured piece of trash It take me 20 minutes just to get 'em back to feeling like human beings To where the ones that can't even read at least'll humor me I try to give em extra time These kids already on they second strike Frustrated by the second try Brown v. Board done had a a ruling but what's the rule? 2005, I's teaching in a segregated school An overpopulated, overmedicated, designated devastated It's cruel RANDOM A yo, the natives are restless Borderline aggression And ask the educators They'll say a teacher's reward is in heaven I gave 'em a question like how can I Teach out of textbooks older than my nana? Understand me it's priceless, Mastercard Ask the God, administrations the key They paid twice as much and work half as hard I ask them all, you ready to hit the picket line? They say nah these kids are fine, get inside How do I tell a kid that he can be a future leader? When all his teachers seem to do is up and leave him I'm tryna overstand, how we improve With white flight on the rise And all of our bright kids move to the burbs Cuz the city they ain't feeling it Really it's not that much better They just better at concealing it I'm just one I ain't speaking for the rest But nobody's learning if we teaching to the test Obama and Romney speak of cleaning of the mess When I waste half a period just keeping them in desks Nowadays schools are lacking accreditation Giving students daycare that pa**es for education So if and when I'm waiting in the back of a gas station And a kid runs up with a gat what can we say then? 9000 graduates, 400 scandals But guess which story gets on the most channels?
