I Was Schooled
I'm just a student at this big old school I do whatever is cool, yet I always stay prudent
From kindergarten to the eleventh grade, nothing really has changed, I am in the same classes
And I am just another guy, despite my genius observation skills you cannot deny
But I cannot believe the lies of the amazing awesome students that I see in my eyes
And every day I take my pill, I have to suppress the extreme urge to act crazy and ill
I feel like someone flipped my top, and stuffed my head with so much knowledge that it feels like it could pop
I was schooled, I was schooled
And I know that this sounds dumb, but I was fooled
Now I know, that no matter how many years I study with my peers...
I cannot fill the gaping hole in my soul, but this is how I roll I wrote this cause I'm bored, but this homework and this stress, it is a double edged sword
I know this isn't right
We kill all trees in sight
I AM SCHOOLED.
