Can I introduce myself
The name is PITSO
And I’m a student of life
All my peers have settled
Down…a few kids
Try to say maybe 7…
Anti-influenced.
I’m seeing a big picture
You might say I’m bored…
Or somewhat of a preacher
A child never deserves
To feel struggles of parents
Like “WHAT’S FOR DINNER”
Then there’s
Moment of silence…
Did you catch the name?
I said I was PITSO
A student of life…
Only a few know my stage…
Name…it’s something
Like Citizen five…
Pardon me…you’ll never
Find me in gold chains…
That runs through my veins…
In my back pocket
You’ll find a varsity
Student card…
But this doesn’t mean that
I’ve been working hard…
A wise man once told me
You don’t know anything
Unless you’re street smart
And this is the reason
You’ll find graduates
Asking job in the streets…
In school, they will never…
Teach you how life us…
I’m from a place where,
A degree is regarded
As a big achievement
I agree…but it’s only,
For the moment
“INVEST IN YOURSELF,”
These words are deeper
Than you think…
I never knew this,
Until God send me a link
You’ll find me reading
A Book…my peers,
Think its nerdy.
I’m running at my own pace
You should see them,
Breathing heavy…
Working a day job they
Always complain about but
As soon as the money
Comes in…they are happy
I won’t take a bribe
To forget my dreams
That’s how I’m feeling lately.
