1
00:00:02,556 --> 00:00:06,630
They end up in the penitatry, man.
They end up --------

2
00:00:06,630 --> 00:00:10,270
They end up do the system.
That's what happens to 'em.

3
00:00:11,040 --> 00:00:14,707
It was that, don't wanna go to school,
wanna sell drugs.

4
00:00:14,707 --> 00:00:17,846
That's where they end up, man.
I'm sorry, but that's the way it is.

5
00:00:17,846 --> 00:00:19,778
In the hood, in the ghetto.

6
00:00:19,918 --> 00:00:22,027
The only thing stop you -----,
the only thing stop you

7
00:00:22,027 --> 00:00:23,694
from making it,
is your own self.

8
00:00:23,694 --> 00:00:26,242
- No one else stop you from doing it
- I like that. I like that.

9
00:00:26,242 --> 00:00:28,489
But that's it. The only thing to stop you
is yourself. Anything you wanna name.

10
00:00:28,489 --> 00:00:30,126
- You can't blame the system.
- You can't blame anyone.

11
00:00:30,126 --> 00:00:31,300
(both) You blame yourself.

12
00:00:31,300 --> 00:00:33,654
I think most of the problems there
in educational system,

13
00:00:33,654 --> 00:00:35,222
are cultural, quite frankly.

14
00:00:35,222 --> 00:00:38,523
And everyone is afraid to use
the "C" word. Culture.

15
00:00:38,683 --> 00:00:40,762
Because everyone says, "Oh that's racist."

16
00:00:40,762 --> 00:00:46,039
The school is good. It's the kids.
That's basically what make it look bad.

17
00:00:46,059 --> 00:00:49,160
What do we give them to make them
want to get up in the morning

18
00:00:49,160 --> 00:00:51,597
and feel --------- 'cause I'm
going to school?

19
00:00:51,597 --> 00:00:52,967
What are we giving them?

20
00:00:52,967 --> 00:00:56,474
In one city, you can have just garbage
schools up in our neighborhood.

21
00:00:56,474 --> 00:01:00,768
And then down there, amazing schools,
and you can't tell me that's not race base

22
00:01:00,768 --> 00:01:05,192
The finger is always being pointed.
"Oh, it's the student's fault",

23
00:01:05,192 --> 00:01:08,986
"Oh it's the parents' fault", 
"Oh it's the teacher's fault".

24
00:01:08,986 --> 00:01:11,203
It's you. It's not you, you, you.

25
00:01:11,203 --> 00:01:13,964
You can't blame the system,
you can't blame the school.

26
00:01:13,964 --> 00:01:17,305
It's if you go, and you wanna learn,
you learn.

27
00:01:17,305 --> 00:01:21,080
If my school had been better, then
I believed that I wouldn't had been

28
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:23,818
on the streets today, talking to you,
nice people.

29
00:01:23,818 --> 00:01:26,707
They're not taking that serious,
we would take it serious

30
00:01:26,707 --> 00:01:28,593
we are the one who is going for it.

31
00:01:28,593 --> 00:01:31,107
Everybody sure is to blame,
from the parents, on to

32
00:01:31,107 --> 00:01:32,705
the administrators of the school.

33
00:01:33,155 --> 00:01:35,615
Well, it takes a village to rise
and shall, so...
