Clayton (16) 
Middle school was the best time
It was very nice, it was very cool
Walking down the hallway 
Following all them Tisdale rules

Summertime is coming up
It's gone be very hot, nothing to do
But sit down and lay down and 
Think all about Tisdale school

This year was the best
Studying so hard thinking bout these tests
All you gotta do is do your work 
And don’t have it looking a mess

And you know Ms. Worthy is the Queen
and she’s nothing like the rest
cuz I love this school so very much, 
You can hear the beat in my chest

CHORUS
It was our time
It was alright
We changed our ways

Going to school
Learning every night
And every day

Our time has passed
From the first 
to the 8th grade

We have to go
Cause we can’t stay
It’s time to graduate
It’s time to graduate

Melany (8)
Tisdale is a good school, 
That’s only cause I’m graduating
I’m in class, I’m meditating
Getting good grades, it’s frustrating

Been here for a lil while,
Saw a couple friends from back then
Got my grades together, no slacking
Now I’m finally passing

Kieashanay (8) 
It’s 2k14 
We all about to graduate
We came a long way
Now it’s time to take that cap and gown
Freshman classes
We all about to turn up
squading in the hallways
Man you know what’s up

Romario (8)
Came here for a couple months
Met a couple girls that don’t stunt
Getting good grades I’m with it,
Had an F but I flipped it

Afterschool with my boy Stache
Studying for the SBACs
And you we about to pass that 
And no problem, we got that

CHORUS

Khiary (16)
Been here ever since the fifth,
And since then I been killin it
I’m from 244 so you know I was made to win
That’s trill, me and my squad got a few skills
All the teachers kept it real,
Came to school even when I was ill, forreal
Tisdale’s my school, broke a few rules
Cause you know that’s how we do
We on the move to high school
Cause you know that we can’t lose
Stayed in the hallways like always to stay out of these classes
My grades were point average
But they gave me two passes

CHORUS

Tae’ron (16)
Been here since 4th grade
Now it’s sad gotta go away
Bout to enter this new world
With some crazy dudes and some fiyah girls

No more of this 8th grade
Bout to enter a whole new stage
School tough, but it’s ok
Just do right, and keep good grades

And if you can’t do that
Then you might just stay back
Now Tisdale is good school, 
Even though it’s public dude

Going sick on the beat
Y’all know y’all cant mess with me 
I’m the best, Can’t you see 
and y’all know how I rock b

CHORUS
