Here I am

“I've never been an academic, I never did well at school. Never made the grade like we're all told we're supposed to do. I was slow, and to cope, I would joke and be a teacher’s fool. Just to hide it. He said, I'll never come to much, I'll never be no good. I didn't fit in the vision of the curriculum like I should. Who says a test is the best way to get us understood? I don't think so. Don't think so, no. Here I am. Tell me, what I gotta lose? Tell me, what I gotta prove? Here I am. Ain't no win without a fail. So let me fail forward, hey. Here I am.”
