We pay for education I guess that’s part of life but have
you ever sat back and felt like it’s just a carving knife?
A knife that carves your existence or who you will become,
one that without paying…you’re nothing but a bum.
All the money in your pocket thrown toward what you study,
too bad with carving knives it can get a little bloody.
You pay to learn and be labeled by the society we are in,
have you ever looked past that to how this culture has developed? It’s nothing
but a sin.
To put a price on one’s worth by the school that they choose, by the
classes that they take, and all of their educational dues.
We shape our future by throwing away cash, we pour it all into
a university that cuts us with a deep gash.
A wound that is so big we spend forever trying to stitch it,
paying off our loans, finding a job with the best benefit.
How wrong is it that learning comes at a huge cost, we are
trying to become something without getting lost.
But what about those people who can’t afford to learn? We
reject them in today’s world and we leave them to burn. Burn in the sunlight
that shines upon their face cause they are homeless and couldn’t afford to run
in life’s race.
So before expensive education became something society required
just to get hired and to feel inspired…how about we realize the cuts and
bruises it leaves when that carving knife slices us with those greedy money
stealing thieves.
