The Supreme Court
has ruled on public school choice
Black folks kids in failing schools
sing hallelujah
It's time to rejoice

You are no longer forced
to endure sub-standard education
Send your kids to another school
a better school
have them mix with the progressive population

But if you go
be prepared to learn
the system must provide transportation
that should not be an excuse
the least of your concerns

Now is the time to take control
Parents of black children
have a most important role

It's in your home the spirit of education begins
outside of the classroom our children have much to learn
so they can get what they want from life
be part of America's greatness
without losing a turn

But if we do things the same old way
sacrificing education for play
making education a low family priority
in all the things you have to do
it won't matter where your kids go to school
your kids will fail there too

BE
 
dis be so true
it makes our color
turn blue
family bond to teach
give our children some pride
so some day true freedom rise
no longer should we hide
behind da wall of our homes
seeing children fall ever so wrong

yes BE............
it's tyme to stand up
i'm short but i'm standing
tall too....
keepin it real
