Still I rise
September 11, 2015
You may write me up in history
With your exaggerated and mistold lies,
You can throw my grades in the dirt,
But just like the dust from the dirt, my grades will rise.
Do my argumentative ways offend you?
Why are you happy when I'm quiet?
Cause the one or two words that I say
can surely start a word riot
