Now, this is a story all about how My students flip history upside down And I'd like to take a minute Just sit right there I'll tell you how my students learn in a school, not Bel Air. In my high school are born and raised Diverse students who like to spend most of their days Writin' out thinkin' and studyin' all cool And yes, shootin' some b-ball outside of the school When a couple of students who were equally good Started making progress in the neighborhood. They needed books real bad and their mom's got scared And said 'We really need to increase reading stamina in this school, not Bel-Air."
