She says i'm book smart
But I don't have no street sense
Maybe because books have commas
But don't make cents
The allure of a man that defies the law
Peaks her interest
Asked me why EYE
Read so many books
They don't make a difference
To her it's about living in the "present"
God must have Pre-Sent me to deliver this message
Understand that
She's been preconditioned to beleive that
The past has no significance
And if i tell her about
The black mans 400 years of enslavement
Or elaborate about how
We've been miseducated
Her face becomes jaded
Then she repeats herself SAYING...
Your book smart
But you have no street sense
And at that moment I realized that
To some
Ignorance is Bliss
