We real smart. we
blow the charts. We
go to bed early. We
sing joy. We
seldom destroy. We
act nice. We
live successful lives.

The author's comments:
I'd like people to understand that I am trying to say that if you stay in school, you can still be cool and you will actually live a very successful life. To all who make fun of kids at school and call them "nerds", we're going to make our lives successful and fulfilling.
