As a young lad growing up
At times you have to move
Let me tell you my story
Let you focus improve

Growing up in private school
From preschool to eighth grade
And then I began public
I began this afraid

But I survived those two years
And made many a friend
But after a move uptown
Those friendships had to end

This school was like my old one
In that it had small size
But the school was still public
So we were worldly wise

And I graduated there
My achievements were grand
But then after those two years
My new friends must disband

So then I was all alone
Till college I began
I’ve met people way better
Than in my current span

Do not fear a move or change
Better things will exchange
