follow the footsteps
school is your prison
describing it like you're being tortured to listen
so mad you look at any wall, and you want to put your fist in it
and then their are your parents paying not only for the drywall you just broke
spending thousands to provoke,
prevent you from being a hopeless folk
a stupid joke
“i got a 50% dude!”
this is all I hear, It’s a constant fear
people being proud of being lower than average
all they do is complain
saying “school is so lame”
it’s like students are in a contest for the lowest grades
wasting potential, creating an apathetic generation
it’s such an abomination
i'm sick and tired of hearing people complain about a luxury in life
if only they knew how many people suffer without education
of course they wouldn't know because they don't bother to learn from their studies,
even if we took it all away
they wouldn't treasure their privilege.
what is it going to take to make these kids care?
such a young age and they don't even try
it makes me want to hysterically cry
… it’s like I'm their parent
… paying the price for not caring about my own education.
