Hey Mohawk Boy!

Yo!
Mohawk Boy!

Yo!
Wassup!

That your hair?
You got a porcupine livin' on your head?

That gel in them spikes?
Dude, didn't your mama tell you not to stick your fingers in light sockets?

Yo! Mohawk Boy!
You got guts!

Bein'… just like your own self
Lookin' like you do
Leapin'…off the normal shelf
Don't follow the crew

You don't judge
Everything's new
Ain't no drudge
Too few like you.

High fivin' a hand that's black
You hang tight
You got his back
It's a'right the palm's white

Yo! Mohawk Boy!

You walkin' around? Where you at?
Sit back on down
I'm hangin' with you. You know that!
Don't need to clown.

Stand to write it
Write it in sandv Just get it done
It don't sound canned!
You make it fun.

All your life
Too much strife.
Not enough of this
Too little of that.
Years of tears:
"Sit down!"
"Stand up!"
"Come here!"
"Get out!"

"SHUT UP!!"
Finally …you say it.
"Get out of my class!"
"I'm sick of this shit!"
"No hall pass!"

"He does not care…He's a trouble maker."
"My son wants to learn!"
"I see in him a …License plate maker."
A parent's eyes burn.

"Help me Please! He won't go to school."
"He just stays in bed."
"He's no fool."
"It's not in his head."

Look at you now!
Lookin' so pround!
Scream it out loud!

"Yo! I'm Mohawk Boy!"

"Doin' my work
Do it my way, you got that for sure!
Go ahead smirk
Ain't just one way to make a cat purr.
'Bout time you learn
That ole' way…make my gut churn."

"Yo! I'm Mohawk Boy!"

"I'm out from behind!
Climbed outta that hole.
One-of-a-kind mind
Yo! I made honor role!"

I'm over your wall
Jaw off the ground, ya'll
