Battering Ram:

 

Anger, is driving the lost souls to their demise

Sadness, causes it and it's no surprise

You don't get it so you get mad at yourself

It doesn't make sense and it doesn't really matter

So you frustrate yourself and you don't ask for help

But everyone needs a hand and I understand

The sinking sand's sucking you in

The sand of discontent and an unhappy grin

We'll don't feel ashamed for not seeing the gain

Turn around and sell the pain, don't put yourself down

 

Everything people tell you that you need to know

May be bullshit, yeah I get it, and it's alright to show

That it's dull shit, and hey, you're not slow

You just hate wasting time, I get it, you said it

The clock is you're greatest foe

When you're trying to understand but man you just can't

That silly shit you need to manage, it makes me want to rant

But just get done with it, and get it over with and then you'll look back

And laugh cause math almost gave you a heart attack

 

Just breath, and conceive a future where it's all gone

All the dumb work, and quirks they force you to learn

You can be your own person and decide if it's worth it

Just learn shit on purpose and maybe turn it into a verse

And it may be a curse to want to learn and yearn for knowledge

But it's power you know, you can be smart without going to college

Life skills are important too, not just equations and memorizing things that will never even help you

But remember, that everything happens for a reason, and believe me, it's true, even if you never see it

And you don't have to take my word, yeah you may think its absurd, but hey you're right, yeah it's a free country

And I don't have all the answers, or even a lot of money but I've been through it too, same as you, and that stuff I learned I'll probably never use

But it's life, and you have to accept what is required

And you need to do your work even though you may be tired

You're not born full of answers, so don't expect to answer everything

Just be content with what you know, and over your own life, you can be king
