1994 was my last year of Middle School and my 1st year of High School.
In my last year of Middle School things were horrific, my Grandmother on my Dad's side had died and she was last Grandparent of mine to me alive (not counting my Step-Grandfather who died in 1998).
Low and behold loads of kids had teased me about all sorts of stuff and this Teacher I had for Computers in 8th Grade, I liked her at 1st but then she started Discriminating against me practically Punishing me for getting teased, I complained to my Mom who at 1st thought I was misinterpreting things that was until my IEP Meeting (held for Special Ed Students and I was one myself) I was in attendance too and this Teacher said I needed to change because the others will not change and to this day im like did she want me to become a Killer or Rapist or what? if so then sorry lady but I don't play that game.
My Mom said excuse me to that Lady too and immediately figured which teacher it was.
Years later I wrote a song about this and the fact this Lady said I needed to change because the others would not change and my Mom's response inspired the 1st verse (even though my Mom didn't say you better be praying and I didn't say those words at that time but now im like yeah she better be praying if she wants redemption cause all ya have to do is ask Jesus for redemption and he'll grant it).
Lyrics
Your kid is gonna have to change
Because the others will not change
Excuse me what are you saying
I think you better be praying
Chorus:
I guess you don't wanna see
You've allowed them to hurt me
You're treating me like im dirt
You've caused me a bunch of hurt
Discriminate is what you've done
You don't see the damage you've done
Im fed up with all your garbage
I am so sick of your garbage
(Chorus)
You didn't play a real good role
And I am so sick of your bull
Punish me cause im a victim
Punish me cause im a victim
(Chorus)
