What lesson did I learn on that first day? That being safe would always get you killed. And so I traded safety for more school And when I had to make a choice, I chose School and freedom over home and race. All that schooling to teach me how to be Another bruise on my mother’s unschooled face.

That being safe would always get you killed.
And so I traded safety for more school
And when I had to make a choice,
I chose School and freedom over home and race.
All that schooling to teach me
how to be Another bruise on my mother’s unschooled face.
