Climbing to the top
Location
My complexion is dark
It sort of leaves a mark
I mean I stand out and I leave that spark
The spark that ignites and unfolds
Unfolds the truth
The truth that I am not like everyone else
My community is low classed
Daily robberies daily crimes
Gangsters everywhere
Bullets in the sky
I live in the community in which you are told you won’t succeed
I proved them all wrong I am that “nigger” that enjoys school
The highbrow student
The smartest in my class but the saddest of them all
The truth is I’m on my own
Struggling with life
Striving for an education and a good future
No one loves me
No one is empathetic nor compassionate
Everyone laughs at me
And I will remain that “nigger” that enjoys school
