Read to You Lyrics – Cliff Weitzman
Singer: Cliff Weitzman
Title: Read to You
I never understood as a kid why the words in a book kept flipping and jumbling
While every other kid was in class just running through pages i’m trippin and stumbling
How come every time that i try to figure out a sentence it feels like a math equation?
At least with that i have a calculator
Teacher tell me hurry up cause the class is waiting
Anxiety rising
Book in my face tryna hide behind it
I don’t want them to see that my eyes are crying
Say i gotta go to the bathroom, i lie about it
Either that or i pretend to read
Wеnt home that night couldn’t get to sleep
Told my dad how i felt, and i hopеd that he wouldn’t think less off me
That’s when he said to me
I know how you feel
And i wish you could see what i see in you
If you got nothing left to believe in-
Know that i believe in you
When the clouds turn grey, just know that a new days peeking through
When the words on the page all turn into pain, don’t be afraid, i’ll read to you
Everything flipped when i learned how to read with my ears instead of my eyes
Got my headphones on while i listen to the words on the page i ain’t wasting a second of time
Hit a road block when i walked into econ class
Couldn’t find any audiobooks for that
So i’m surfing the net trying to find a tool
But i can’t find a thing, now i’m failing school
Wait…
Knew i couldn’t ever let it get to me
Gotta find another way to turn text to speech
So i learned how to code how to debug javascript
Highlighting the words they stop to flip
I’m listening fast, it’s talking it
No limit on me all confidence
But on days when it hurts, and i’m insecure
I sit with myself and i write these words
I know how you feel
And i wish you could see what i see in you
If you got nothing left to believe in-
Know that i believe in you
When the clouds turn grey, just know that a new days peeking through
When the words on the page all turn into pain, don’t be afraid, i’ll read to you
Ironic how i couldn’t read books, now the books all read to me
Instead of just skimming pages
We’re scanning pages, and we listen back easily
So, if you get bored and resort to procrastination
No retention when you read the lines
Chrome extension for the peace of mind
Cause anything you wanna read you can speechify it
Uh
Playing field had to level it out
Everybody learns different it’s evident now
One skill should never put a limit on a kids potential
Shouldn’t force them to fit the stencil
20 years later, my son felt that: the whole class laughed at the fact he was struggling
I was hugging him
Afraid that i can’t always be next to him
So i said to him
I know how you feel
And i wish you could see what i see in you
If you got nothing left to believe in-
Know that i believe in you
When the clouds turn grey, know that a new days peeking through
When the words on the page turn into pain, don’t be afraid, i’ll read to you
