Just swallow and digest, time will do the rest.
No room for play, not even on your birthday.
Moulding us like clay, is this the only way?
Or is it all just foreplay? To ride the masses freeway?

about nurturing a nation, a race... as demanded by the creator of space.
We are their guide, our most divine right.
If He only knew, how few
Teach them something real, something their soul can feel.
Only then they will know what it means to grow.
Only then they'll find meaning, within their human being.

A piece of the puzzle that can be proud, that's what education is about.
