What is it
What is school?
Is it going to a prison everyday to have bland tasteless information shoved down your throat
Is it staying up till 2 in the morning memorizing useless facts to get straight A's
Is it doing good on a test because every decision we make effects the rest of our life
Is it when we don't even know who we are yet
Is it when we have crippling anxiety, depression and a whole boat load of insecurities
Is it when everyone wants us to fall and give up
Is it when the teachers are like robots talking and teaching monotone and flat
Is it when it feels like the world wants to crush us and make us slaves of society
Is it when success is only to the rare few
What is school?
What is success?
Is it graduating college at the top of your class
Is it then getting into a prestigious college
Is it then getting a good paying job
Is it having a family being perfectly happy having to get up to change your kids diaper at 1 am
Is it then waking up at 5 being exhausted and upset cause you have to support your family
Is it working for a boss that sees you as how efficient you are at your job and not you as a human
Is it doing the same thing everyday like a robot while watching your kids grow up
Is it watching your kids grow up in a generation that glorifies drugs and sex
Is it knowing your kids will mix that up with love
What is success?
What is love?
Is it seeing a someone thinking there cute at a party while you get drunk out of your mind
Is it then messaging them the next day saying "what a night"
Is it then asking them to go out with you
Is it then making decisions up to where sex seems like a normal thing that everyone dose
Is it then fighting with them just to make a excuse to break up
Is it then going to parties and doing it to fill the emptiness in us that school and the massive weight of success has left in us
Is it a bland feeling for lust
What is love?
