maeve noiré - extra credit lyrics

Loading...

iep on paper, promise delayed
extra help i needed, kept at bay
resources for me, money in their hands
spent on showers, not to help me stand

surgery on my leg, couldn’t walk the hall
threatened to hold me back, let me fall
paychecks meant for me, spent somewhere else
i fought to learn, but they only helped themselves

extra credit (spеnt on themselves), tеxtbooks missing, i’m left on the shelves
extra credit (they stole what was mine)
fighting to rise, but they cross the line

promises empty, lies in the frame
they can’t hold me in their greedy game

other students moving, doors open wide
i limped through halls, nowhere to hide
threatened retention, even while i healed
my body broken, my chance repealed

counted the paycheck, laughed behind doors
ignored the iep, ignored its core
i worked, i begged, i fought every day
they used my need to get their way
extra credit (spent on themselves), textbooks missing, i’m left on the shelves
extra credit (they stole what was mine)
fighting to rise, but they cross the line

promises empty, lies in the frame
they can’t hold me in their greedy game

how do you trust a system that takes what’s yours?
how do you learn when they lock the doors?
i gave my all, my fight, my time
but they turned my help into their crime

“the resources meant for me became their luxury —
i fought to learn, and they tried to erase me.”

extra credit (spent on themselves), textbooks missing, i’m left on the shelves
extra credit (they stole what was mine)
fighting to rise, but they cross the line

promises stolen, but i survive
i’m more than their greed — i’m alive

money can’t define me, nor the halls i roam
i carry my fight, i carry my home
extra credit? maybe for them, but i take the win
i rise, i learn, i breathe again
