I’ve always excelled in subjects like history
Remembering people, dates,
and events come naturally
It’s important to know where you came from
Many people are afraid and from the past they run
Famous works and art of the past,
documents that built structure
for our country to last
Juicy gossip about Alexander Hamilton, subconscious contradictions of Thomas Jefferson
King Henry breaking away from the church
Only for his selfish gain of a son’s birth
The brave Harriet Beecher Stowe,
pushing for freedom in the work she wrote
Ralph Waldo Emerson,
giving his views on transcendentalism
All the nations of the future to be,
will soon be a part of history
