CHORUS I gave you school power I raised you up child [4x] [MikeAll] Pure possibilities potential just starting Whether you stay within my lines or charge passed the margin Ain't large enough to keep your smarts in check How I’m blank like a cheque till you inject your intellectual property dots and thoughts on top of we Names be displayed followed by degrees Is prestigious way to hold green papes (W)Hole punch your ticket to success, go create [Tigz] I’ve heard that every painted picture’s like a thousand words that hit ya So a pencil to a pad can turn your scribbles into scripture It’s a loud whisper, when you make a mark or mixture A climax of creation underpainting shades of bister So move that pen from start to end and give that tree a new best friend Bob Ross, or Van Gogh, Frida Kahlo, Kara Walker, Banksy, Dave Choe So know them, you, or I The real art supply is in the beauty of the mind CHORUS I fade your school power I made you buckwild [4x] [Wizekrak] I’m your celly in your pocket, I control you Planted algorithms in your media will mould you Tik Tok has got you watching dumb stuff, you love it There’s countries that don’t promote that junk, They’re above it Now you use it in class, the teacher can’t see you Ignore the lesson taught, you’ve learned nothing guaranteed true So hooked, you can’t put me down but you need to See through these tactics that slow you down, review [IKhan] I got the flavour you need Sometimes it’s empty calories sometimes it’s fruit with the seed I’m banging on your lunchroom tables and whatever I’m even in the pockets of the children who are clever I can show the distance between hangry and hungry I keep you bubbly when I serve you up It’s lovely Kids, form a line because it’s time to share what’s mine Remember to be kind don’t leave your wrappers behind [Chase March] Yo I'm overworked and just a distraction Sounding too often hard for people to gain any traction When I rule the day so put everything away You know you gotta listen to what I say And switch gears, change rooms, run up out the place Even if you were in flow and about to create That little spark that would motivate and inspire Forget it, I have rung now it's time to dead it

about

School Power is a song by Hip Hop Headucatorz that brings classroom and school objects to life through the power of personification. Each verse comes from the perspective of a different school object. Some of the objects help and some might actual hinder the learning process.

The song is accompanied with ready-to-use resources for your classroom. This booklet contains textbook-type pages that explain the concepts and worksheets that vary in difficulty.

The teacher resource book can be purchased on the Hip Hop Headucatorz website and Bandcamp pages. It comes with a DJ pack of this song including the instrumental so your students can write and recite their own verses as an extension activity.
