hendersin - catch me if you can lyrics

[verse: 1]
anything is possible thats word to kg
yeah i had to pay dues when n-body paid me
yeah i had to keep it cool like i prefer the ac
told my college that i’m outty yeah thats no a3
i been working on a dream ever since i was a kid
back when i ain’t have to worry bout a thing that i did
back when they said “it might not be probable, but nothing is impossible
and with some hard work get over any f-cking obstacle
but aye aye aye aye i think that they lied
cause theres nights that i have failed but i promise you i’ve tried
the american dream, it seems i’ve been denied
and its easier to swallow liquor then it is to pride but
bring me down, bring me down, you can try to stop me
but i know, but i know, life can get rocky
if i fall, if i fall, and you never caught me
i’m gon be ok saying

[hook]
neh neh neh neh neh
yeah they try to bring us down (neh neh neh neh neh)
but we gon make the sound (neh neh neh neh neh)
i don’t think they understand (neh neh neh neh neh)
just catch me if you can (neh neh neh neh neh)
they don’t wanna tell the truth(neh neh neh neh neh)
they just wanna take our youth (neh neh neh neh neh)
i don’t think they understand (neh neh neh neh neh)
just catch me if you can (neh neh neh neh neh)
[verse: 2]
they told me anything is possible but now its not true
like michael jordans great but that will never be you
and all the fun things as a kid you used to
imagination well its cool but it’s not an i.q
so you gotta go to school learn some sh-t that you’ll forget
then you work a 9 to 5 just so you can pay your debt
and you got some big dreams but a tiny little check
you just end up making money for some jerk you never met
never met thinking, aye aye aye aye i think that they lied
cause my friends they f-cking failed but i promise you they tried
the american dream, it seems they’ve been denied
and its easier to swallow liquor then it is to pride but
bring you down, bring you down, they can try to stop you
but you are, but you are, doing what you’ve got to
if you fall, if you fall, and they never caught you
you gon be ok singing

[hook]

[donovan livingston speech:]

as educators, rather than raising your voices
over the rustling of our chains
take them off. un-cuff us
unenc-mbered by the lumbering weight
of poverty and privilege
policy and ignorance

our stories are ladders
that make it easier for us to touch the stars
so climb and grab them
keep climbing. grab them
spill your emotions in the big dipper and pour out your soul
light up the world with your luminous allure

to educate requires galileo-like patience
today, when i look my students in the eyes, all i see are constellations
if you take the time to connect the dots
you can plot the true shape of their g-nius —
shining in their darkest hour

i look each of my students in the eyes
and see the same light that aligned orion’s belt
and the pyramids of giza
i see the same twinkle
that guided harriet to freedom
i see them. beneath their masks and mischief
exists an authentic frustration;
an enslavement to your standardized -ssessments

at the core, none of us were meant to be common
we were born to be comets
darting across sp-ce and time
leaving our mark as we crash into everything
