INFORMATION
'Education' these days
Is about pure information
And by information
I mean regurgitating facts verbatim
And by regurgitation I mean it's taken
As truth with no contemplation
That behind all this initiation
Is nothing more than total indoctrination
Into cookie-cutter patriotic nations
I mean even the word information
Is unsettling with reiteration
Think of it
like this
Information
In-formation
IN. FORMATION.
Conspiracy? Could be
Though that, is another story
For now lets call it coincidental consideration.
To keep in mind what's lacking
In a cold calculated system of education
So I ask you and i beg
Where's the social validation
That everyone is different
In the way they treat a situation
That people are so vast and varied when it comes to inspiration
And still we wonder why kids in school
Get bullied, beaten and mistaken
Treated by their peers as some kind of social retardation
By other young minds bored and rampart with frustration
From a system failing day by day
Generation by generation
I mean is it no surprise from a society with a hell-bent fixation
Upon competition
Survival of fittest
And human exploitation?
Of mantra screaming profit, selfishness, and lack of real cooperation
Nature over nurture and people under nations
That leave us standing divided and alone amongst as sea of potential collaboration?
And yet we're told to sing our anthems of patriotic proclamations
That we live in lands of freedom, justice, love and consideration.
What we need is real change
Firstly via total non-cooperation
And to rest assured that our minds, and our children's mind, and future generations
Are part of actual solutions
and also the source of total inspiration
To take hold of something we've all lost
That little skill called self education.
So please believe me when i see
Your sense of self worth and social participation
As as nothing more than pure social stagnation
When it's simply a regurgitation of being in formation
Is about pure information
And by information
I mean regurgitating facts verbatim
And by regurgitation I mean it's taken
As truth with no contemplation
That behind all this initiation
Is nothing more than total indoctrination
Into cookie-cutter patriotic nations
