I Was Schooled

poem by: Xander Martin
Written on Feb 03, 2015

I'm just a student at this big old school I do whatever is cool, yet I always stay prudent 
From kindergarten to the eleventh grade, nothing really has changed, I am in the same classes 

And I am just another guy, despite my genius observation skills you cannot deny 
But I cannot believe the lies of the amazing awesome students that I see in my eyes 

And every day I take my pill, I have to suppress the extreme urge to act crazy and ill
 I feel like someone flipped my top, and stuffed my head with so much knowledge that it feels like it could pop 

I was schooled, I was schooled 
And I know that this sounds dumb, but I was fooled 
Now I know, that no matter how many years I study with my peers... 
I cannot fill the gaping hole in my soul, but this is how I roll I wrote this cause I'm bored, but this homework and this stress, it is a double edged sword 
I know this isn't right 
We kill all trees in sight 
I AM SCHOOLED.
