| | City High Anthem Lyrics Artist(Band):City High
So we were all pushed to the side cuz we didn't see the world through our teachers eyes When all we needed was a little bit of motivation But because we wore our pants saggin' y'all labelled us gangstas And said we wasn't worth the time There are so many things i never asked you, There are so many things i still dont know, There are so many things you never told me, and still so many things that will never know, And why, cuz i went to city high A school with more dropouts than signups and registrations, Mmmm yea, and the pregnancy rate is at an all time high(we all know why) Now you would think the classrooms the place for mental stimulation, But theres some brothas outside sellin that stuff that will really stimulate your mind(talkin bout gettin high) There are so many things you never showed me, There are too many things you let slip by, How can I face a world that doesn't know me A world that doesn't care whether I live or die, And why, cuz I go to City High So, We don't need your education We don't want no pacifier We are the leaders of your nation We're gonna make sure the world survives There ain't no justice there's just us What happened to the meaning of "in God we trust" So as we get older and our children grow up We ain't gonna teach them what y'all showed us There's too many babies dyin' before they're born (Lord ain't that the truth) Too many young ladies cryin' with a daddy in the house but not a father in the home (now y'all know there's a difference) And what about all our young soldiers being led astray (by this negative music) What happened to the Isaac Hayes, and the Curtis Mayfield's and all the Marvin Gayes? Man we really need 'em today And there were so many things that needed explaining But you said it was too late for me to learn You were suppose to be my shelter when it was rainin' But instead you left me out here all alone, so I gotta make it on my own We don't need your education We don't want no pacifier We are the leaders of your nation We're gonna make sure the world survives There ain't no justice there's just us What happened to the meaning of "in God we trust" So as we get older and our children grow up We ain't gonna teach them what y'all showed us For people who did believe, what we could do to change our future, you knew the world was in our hands, help build them strong so they can withstand, all the pressures, all the war, all the prejudice, and the others who were sure we couldn't fight the stress in life, for those of you who didn't believe us, listen to my words for you, listen to your children sing to you We don't need your education We don't want no pacifier We are the leaders of your nation We're gonna make sure the world survives There ain't no justice there's just us What happened to the meaning of "in God we trust" So as we get older and our children grow up We ain't gonna teach them what y'all showed us If you find some error in City High Anthem Lyrics, would you please submit your corrections to me?
