lyrics

You feel like a prisoner in a classroom cage,
frustration and boredom turns into rage,
days go by and things get worse every day.
Your hate turns to teachers and every single thing they'd like to say,
you might hate institutions, great, but ignorance is not okay.

Educate yourself - ignorance will drag you down.
Educate yourself - I beg you don't fall to the ground.
Knowledge is something they can't steal from you!
It's something they can't steal from you.

There've always been a struggle between rich and poor,
in this dog eat dog world,
can't use a brick to fight, you need a different tool
(but sometimes there's no other way).
Gotta know who we are, where we come from and where are we going to,
it has always been like this - the smart one makes it through.

Educate yourself - ignorance will drag you down.
Educate yourself - don't fall, don't fall to the ground.
'Cos stagnation means death and to live in ignorance means to live in illusion,
so flex your fuckin' head and be patient - Rome wasn't built in a day.

Frustration means death and it's pointless to live in constant sorrow,
so flex your fuckin' mind and be patient...

Educate yourself - ignorance will drag you down.
Educate yourself - don't fall, don't fall to the ground.
'Cos stagnation means death and to live in ignorance means to live in illusion,
so flex your fuckin' head...
But still you don't need no greedy leaders.

And I have seen them fall without emotion.
And I have heard them call without devotion.
And I have seen them fall without emotion.
And I have tasted wealth.
Knowledge is a perfect crime.
