The line to which every tyrant dies, The saying to end all tyranny. Yet it has not found every place tyranny lies, Despite some places being quite... elementary. People are constantly sent to schools, While these schools are run by greedy fools. And if you enter school to satisfy a need for learning, You will certainly leave with a sense of yearning. But few beg for the system to be changed. Whilst those who do are deemed deranged. Oppressed by a system that rewards based not on merit, But on obedience. The talks of change claimed to be out of the budget. Left to blindly follow their credence. Sic semper tyrannis.

Sic Semper Tyrannis
The line to which every tyrant dies, The saying to end all tyranny. Yet it has not found every place tyranny lies, Despite some places being quite... elementary. People are constantly sent to schools, While these schools are run by greedy fools. And if you enter school to satisfy a need for learning, You will certainly leave with a sense of yearning. But few beg for the system to be changed. Whilst those who do are deemed deranged. Oppressed by a system that rewards based not on merit, But on obedience. The talks of change claimed to be out of the budget. Left to blindly follow their credence. Sic semper tyrannis.
