North Rockland High School Best Buddies Promoters Club
Chorus:
They don’t want sympathy
They just want friends
Like you and me
How simple can it be?
Spell it out for them
So they can see
It’s B-E-S-T
We’re the best,
We are Best Buddies
2017
So let’s him them with the…
Verse 1:
Words have power, it’s called SPELL-ing
Don’t mind me cause my mind’s dwelling
On thoughts that I brought
back and fought so that
I’d have an impact with rap
In fact, speak wisely for the time being
I utilize a bunch of rhyme schemes,
I see a world where we’d tolerate,
and aren’t barbaric and love conquers hate
These bars may indeed be hard,
it’s 2017 and they still use the R-word?
Real mean and now it’s our turn
to show inclusion and interaction
In turn we turn dreams to actions
We work magic, imagine the passion
You telling me that words hurt ?
Who are you to argue that it ain’t a curse word?
Now you see us, this is the second act
intent to rap and rep our chapter
I’m just a kid that spreads the word
musically, truthfully, this ain’t new to me
Making my friends proud with down syndrome or autism but y’all listen
With their wisdom and some charisma we’ve risen above and built us a buzz
Chorus:
They don’t want sympathy
They just want friends
Like you and me
How simple can it be ?
Spell it out for them
So they can see
It’s B-E-S-T
We’re the best,
We are Best Buddies
2017
So let’s him them with the
R-Word Stomp
Say it loud and proud this is the
R-Word Stomp
One more time so we can hear
R-Word Stomp
Say it loud and proud this is the
R-Word Stomp
Verse 2:
Dang Daniel
back at it again with another verse!
Another day, another year and it works
VicePresidente, bars muy caliente,
but the R-word you can’t say
This club got stronger and so did I
We ain’t change the world, but we changing lives
I never would stutter the words that I’d utter my flow is like butter so now you know what up
I thought I had the message all clear last year
that lasted a year, so now listen,
e for equality = our mission
Einstein, I’m fine, I’m just fixing
hearts through art and Best Buddies
won’t stop till we’re played across the country
Shoutout to Anthony Kennedy Shriver,
Kyrie and Brady, we aimin’ higher
