[male
vocals] (
Yeah,
check
the
rhythm)
Dedicated
to
the
ones
who
build
the
future
Every
morning,
steady
path
Listen
up
now
Early
morning
sun
is
rising
high
Walking
to
the
school
beneath
the
sky
Books
under
your
arm,
a
vision
in
your
head
You
guide
the
youth,
keep
the
hunger
fed
You
turn
the
pages,
you
open
up
the
mind
Leaving
all
the
struggle
way
behind
With
every
chalk
mark
on
the
dark
board
You
give
the
children
something
they
can
afford
A
future
built
on
wisdom
and
on
grace
I
see
the
passion
written
on
your
face
You
don't
stop,
you
keep
the
focus
clear
Making
sure
the
lessons
reach
the
ear
It's
a
noble
work,
a
labor
of
the
soul
Helping
every
student
reach
the
goal
Yeah,
we
celebrate
the
effort
that
you
bring
Teacher
you're
the
backbone,
hear
us
sing
Oh,
the
blackboard
hero,
leading
the
way
Turning
the
shadows
into
a
brighter
day
You
plant
the
seeds,
you
watch
them
grow
tall
You're
the
one
standing
steady
through
it
all
Blackboard
hero,
mentor
and
guide
With
knowledge
as
your
banner,
open
and
wide
We
salute
the
strength,
we
salute
the
light
Everything
you're
doing
is
doing
it
right
Classroom
humming
with
the
sound
of
truth
Drafting
up
the
dreams
of
all
the
youth
Some
days
are
heavy,
the
burden
is
real
But
you
show
them
how
to
break
the
seal
You're
more
than
a
master
of
the
math
and
the
prose
You
help
them
grow
in
the
way
that
it
goes
When
the
system
tightens
and
the
pressure
starts
to
rise
You
find
the
spark
behind
the
tired
eyes
No
recognition
for
the
hours
you
spend
But
you
show
up
again,
right
until
the
end
It's
that
dedication,
that
steady
kind
of
flow
Giving
everything
that
you
truly
know
You’
re
building
the
nation
one
step
at
a
time
Polishing
the
rhythm,
making
it
rhyme
Respect
to
the
teacher,
respect
to
the
grind
You’
re
one
of
a
kind,
leave
the
past
behind
Oh,
the
blackboard
hero,
leading
the
way
Turning
the
shadows
into
a
brighter
day
You
plant
the
seeds,
you
watch

grow
tall
You're

Everything
you're
doing
is
doing
it
right
It
isn't
for
the
gold,
it
isn't
for
the
fame
It's
for
the
legacy,
for
building
up
the
name
Of
every
student
who
will
walk
into
the
sun
Because
you
taught
them
how
to
stand
and
how
to
run
Keep
pushing
forward,
keep
holding
the
line
Your
influence
is
lasting,
divine
design
Yeah,

the
groove,

the
truth
settle
in
This
is
where
the
new
chapters
begin
