A wise man once stood
In front of a crowd of a hundred and more
With a fearless impression
Coming from the blood in his eye
And spoke, with a voice
Capable of leading any Nation stating that
"Education is our passport to the future,
for tomorrow
Belongs to the people, who prepare for it today"
Ive always believed this to be true
Because to me
True Liberation of any people
Begins with the turning of a forgotten page
Where every complete sentence or equation written with permanent ink
Guides your existence
Closer
To the type of Equality
Scarcely seen in the darkest crevices
Of a dysfunctional family
When I hear
"No child left behind"
I reflect upon the hardheaded & younger me
The trials and tribulations
That fabricated mi, to be Free
Yet I've never viewed a good education
To merely be hours of informative lectures
My mother taught me better than that
Instead, I've always envisioned it as far-reaching Gps
Guiding mi, to my Personal Salvation
