  1. The boy wrote that song because he always got bullied at school. So he switched schools and it was much better. He wrote that song because he wanted to make a difference for anti bullying.

    The messages in the video clip was that he only lives with his mom and that he didn't want to go to school because he always got bullied. This had to stop, so that was the message in the song.

    One time I got bullied by many of my friends but at different times. Then we made it better by solving the problem by ourselves. It made things better. But I did not switch schools like he did. -Rylee

  2. The boy wrote this song because he wanted people to listen to the lyrics of the to help stop bullying. This is because he used to get bullied when he was younger and he wanted to put a stop to bullying.
    The message of the song was that bullying isn't good. It's not something anybody should be proud of.
    I think if I saw bullying or if I was getting bullied I would tell them to stop. And if they didn't I would stand up to the bully. If they still wouldn't stop I would get an adult who could help me with the bullying problem because bullying isn't good and we want to stop bullying. - Lucas

  3. This boy in the video wrote this song because he got bullied at school all day. He did not think it was nice. I think the message was to stop bullying at school or any place.

    I remember in my other school I was being bullied by 3 grade 6 students. Instead of telling someone I did something bad to them and I got in trouble. I think people should STOP bullying. - Thomas E.

  4. The boy wrote this song because he was getting bullied in school. I think if you're bullied you have to do something about it. Don't just be grumpy that you're getting bullied. Do something about it.
    One time I saw these two kids outside during winter at school. One of the boys took the other's hat. Then he started running away. I started to run after him. I asked him why he did that. He gave me the hat so he wouldn't get in trouble. I gave the hat back to the other boy. - Uri

  5. The boy wrote this song because he was getting bullied at school. So he ended up singing his song in front of 1,000 people. The message was to tell people that nobody can take over your life by bullying you.
    I have been in the same situation in kindergarden. I was bullied for the whole
    year because I was new at LES. It just eventually stopped because I ignored them. - P.O.

  6. The boy wrote this song because he was being bullied and he wanted people to be strong. So when and if we get bullied we will know what we can do and will stand up to bullies.
    The video clip showed us that he was bullied and he didn't want to go to school anymore. He was rapping about what he was feeling. He eventually went to a new school and he was happy there because he was not bullied anymore. One day at his new school he met someone and they just connected. After a whilel they were best friends. That is who he was singing his song with.
    One day I was bullied too and I didn't want to go to school anymore. I was not strong and I was sad and they did it for weeks. Until one day I was strong and I told the teacher and they did not bully me again.

  7. This song was written to show the world how it felt to get bullied. He wanted to stop all the people from bullying at school and he wants to make sure that everybody who listens to his song wants to not ever gets bullied (or bullies) again at school.
    I've been in something like this in my old school. I was living in Saskatoon and then we moved to Quebec. It is way better here cause there was no bullying for me anymore. - Dominic

  8. This boy was bullied by somebody at his school so he wrote the song to let his feelings out . The message was "please don't bully me. I didn't do anything to you, so stop picking on me" He changed schools and the bullying stopped. I think that was good.
    I have seen someone get bullied at my house. It was a little boy that lives up the road from me. He was being bullied by his neighbor. The little boy moved away with his family because of that. - Amber

  10. 1 A boy was getting bullied at school and he did
    not like it. He stood up to the bully and told him that
    he did not like it.

    2 The message is to NEVER bully anywhere or anyone in the
    world.

    3 I was bullied in school once. I did not
    like it either. Just like him.

  11. A) He started rapping because he was being bullied at his old school. He decided to go on Britain's Got Talent to show that you should not be a bully.

    B) The message of the video clip was to not become a bully and that if anyone who was bullied should not become one.

    C) I have seen someone being bullied in my school, L.E.S. This was after school when I was going back to my home. It was someone in our neighborhood. An adult came by and told the kid to stop, and he did. It is not nice to bully people.

  12. This video was about a little boy who was being bullied at school everyday. So he wrote that song about himself getting bullied. He sang it on stage with his best best friend.
    In the song he wrote that he did not like getting bullied. When he was asked why they were bullying him they would keep hurting him by kicking him to the ground.
    I was bullied for the hole year in grade 1. At the end of the year they stopped, and I was so happy that they did. I still don't know why they stopped.

  13. A boy was getting bullied by another boy and he did not like it. So what he did was write a song for people about it. Then so he went on Britain's Got Talent and he went on stage with his friend. He was happy to be on stage in front of all of the kids and their moms and/or dads.

    When the little boy was singing on stage, after he was done the judge said he had listened to all of the words in his song.

    I was bullied to and I did not like. I told them to stop and they did not stop. It is still going on so I should tell their teacher.

  14. He wrote this song because he was trying to find someone to help him stop the bully. The message of the song was that in his life he was being bullied by people and he did not like it. He was trying to get people to stop bullying others with his words in the song.
    In my other school a boy named Rafael also tried to catch me to scratch me. I was trying to play but he didn't understand. The problem was never solved.

  15. In the video the two young boys sang a beautiful song in front of so many people. Everyone wanted them to move up to the next competition. They made their Mom and Dad proud.
    I like to sing too just like the two boys.

  16. I think that the boy wrote this song so that way people would listen to his lyrics and make people stop bullying by telling them that he got bullied. He did not like being bullied. If you bully someone you will not have many friends.
    When I was younger I lived beside someone that got bullied. One day he moved away.
