Aline Gonzalez - Education? lyrics

Why is school so harsh on all its students? They say it's to test you on how smart you are, but in reality they're just teaching us the same topic. What if we're not all the same? We all don't grow up thinking, "i want to be a doctor". Most of us don't need 12 years of research to understand what we really want to be in life. If our minds weren't manipulated into thinking we should be a working at a certain profession to be successful, we would actually be living to be happy, not just for the money. Paraphrasing this, School and education can be useful; to some extent. Of course, we all need a basic education so we can reason. But, when it comes to them making you feel like you're not good enough because you didn't ace that chemistry test, its just humanely wrong. No one wants to feel like square peg in a round hole. They claim plagiarism is illegal in all schools, but how does copying and pasting the same education to every student and claiming it's right any different? This database we've been learning in needs a change. From my own experience, I've heard teachers themselves claim to be dictators. Rulers of us all. And all though it might just be said as a joke, they actually take it into action. How can you help someone to be themselves if you're constantly telling them what's right and wrong? Some of us just want to be happy, and not be programmed to something we have to work for the rest of our lives because it seems "right".
