C. James Conrad - TO BE A STUDENT

I was thinking yesterday how
I am in school almost every day and
I will be going to school
Year after year after year; feels like forever

I was studying yesterday since
I am taking a test today but
I will be getting good grades
Because I study every day

I was, I am, I will be a student
It’s the past, present and future of to be
I was, I am, I will be a student
To be what I am meant to be
To be a student

Then my teacher came to me and told me

You were in class with me yesterday and
You are in school almost every day and
You will be learning more
So let's see how you answer these

Were you trying to do your best?
Are you eating and getting rest?
Will you be graduating from a university

I was, I am, I will be a student
It’s the past, present and future of to be
I was, I am, I will be a student
To be what I am meant to be
To be a student

Then my teacher went and told the principal
This child was in my class today and
This child is working to get good grades
This child will be studying
And learning more than you and me

We were students with rulers
Are we as good with computers?
We will be learning
To keep up with technology

I was, I am, I will be a student
It’s the past, present and future of to be
I was, I am, I will be a student
To be what I am meant to be
To be a student

I was, I am, I will be a student
I was, I am, I will be a student
I was, I am, I will be a student
To be what I am meant to be
I was, I am, I will be a student
I was, I am, I will be a student
I was, I am, I will be a student
To be what I am meant to be

I was, I am, I will be a student
It’s the past, present and future of to be
I was, I am, I will be a student
To be what I am meant to be
To be a student
