School
Koinange Street Avengers Lyrics

I'm going to school
I am attending school to gain knowledge and education.

To learn all the rules
To learn the set of principles governing conduct or action in a particular institution or community.

They said I am a fool
People have expressed the view that I am silly or stupid for going to school.

I've gotta go to school
Despite being called a fool, I must still attend school.

They'll teach me some words
Teachers at school will provide me with new vocabulary.

I'll learn some new verbs
I will gain the knowledge of new action words.

From all that I've heard
Based on what others have shared with me about school.

It's good for what it's worth
Attending school will provide some value in enhancing my knowledge.

And the words keep streaming right into my mind
I keep absorbing more information into my mind from school.

Is there something bigger that we're leaving behind?
Is there something greater in life beyond what school is teaching us?

Underneath these figures lies a greater design
Beneath the surface level of our education, there is a more significant plan.

I can feel it right inside my mind (it says)
I have a sense that there is something more profound and significant to life, and it resonates within me.

Live your life like you always wanted to
Live your life to the fullest, passionately pursuing your goals.

Close your eyes and look inside yourself
Take a moment to reflect on what truly drives you from within.

Chase your dreams like this world is ending
Pursue your ambitions like there's no tomorrow, with urgency and passion.

It's all depending on this one thing
The realization of your dreams and aspirations is dependent upon a single factor or decision.

Would you give it to yourself?
Are you willing to work hard enough to achieve your goals and give yourself what you want in life?

I'm going to church
I'm heading to a place of worship or religious institution.

To find out where I'm from
To explore my spiritual and ancestral roots and find meaning in my existence.

They said I have to search
Religious leaders or followers have told me that I must seek knowledge and understanding of my beliefs.

In a book I left at home
Referring to a religious text or scripture that I forgot to bring with me.

I'm going to work
I'm off to my place of employment.

To get me some cash
To earn money to sustain my livelihood and achieve my dreams.

They said I have to rush
Others have warned me that I must work quickly and diligently due to the potential collapse of the economy.

The economy might crash
There may be an imminent financial downturn that could lead to job losses or financial instability.

There's so much more
There are many other experiences and opportunities to explore in life.

Would you give it to yourself?
Will you allow yourself to pursue and achieve the many other possibilities and experiences available in life?
