I still play to their chords.
Livin' within conventions.
Livin' within restrictions.
Livin' within a structure.
Lettin' someone write my story.

Toye wants to follow his dream. but he can't let these institutions write his story. He decides to teach his classmates about Black cultural icons himself, but quickly discovers that not everyone wants Black historv to be celebrated.
