Losing Education

by finley-pietersen

I feel lost at times, Like I'm losing my mind Everybody else letting loose, Slut dropping, pill popping 'Booty' on pelvis grinds Joint sharing, sniffing cocaine lines Unemployed but still no one has time Everyone is commited, But nobody knows why. I feel lost because The education system taught us Mathematics, English And a bunch of other stuff But not how to apply for a job Behave in an interview or Maintain and mindset That actually gives a fuck How our voting system works, Whether we elect our leaders Or if the system is really corrupt So was it enough?

Notes

We weren't taught about hourly wages or salaries. How to get a mortgage, apply for a bank account. How to recover from loss and stay straight when we gain. Ask your teachers: how is your credit rating and who did you vote for?
