Just Educated
Just educated
Gave me a space
I need a practical life
Gave me your advice
But Don't forget I have my mind
I have been sitting too many years
In those class room
Accumulating all forms of school
Lessons
So Many school exams I have passed few I fail
So many books I have read to accumulate your society certificate
That allow me to be a Morden slave
Oh yes a modern slavery to money
What can I do best ?
Was it all I was thought on those
Class room?
Hell no
Now am on the outside world
I go places
Another school of it own kind
A mighty school
Mostly on the street
I wonder and learn
I learn to think
So now I could see beyond
My eyes
All this life gives
Why do we make it a debt
All this nature bring
We do we destroy them
With All this educated people
Why is still no peace in our generation
So I refuse be called educated
I prefer to grow with my mind
For when one can't ask
Questions about our today
False reality sorry then you
Are only but
Just educated
