it's hard to care about education
when it's just drilled in our head as memorization
the system doesn't work when the yearn to learn isn't there
students mindlessly attending, but none of them care
testing is shoved straight down their throats
and the homework is piling and it's sinking their boats
so take note because things need to change
and priorities need to be arranged
i understand that teachers need to be paid
but the salary they are making is hardly okay
it's hard to learn when they have no passion
it seems like loving your job, has gone out of fashion
teachers are concerned about how much they earn
and that is why they try and get kids to learn
but if the teaching isn't genuine
our work is hardly benevolent
so reconsider how things are run
i miss the times when learning was FUN
but now curriculum is strict
and it pretty much constricts
our ability to care
because we are forced to be there
so how about not wasting our time
because learning without passion is a serious crime
and it isn't just the rankings that are suffering.
