I went to school for 12 years and they never taught me
How to take care of my self
And why would they?
Conflict of their interests of control
So we sit in our seats and we do what were told
We don’t question anything
we were trained to shut our mouths
You can’t stand up if they own your soul
So I might be a drop out
But I’ll never finish my education
I’ve got a thirst for knowledge
But I’m not one for indoctrination
I beat the shit out of my body
But I take good care of my mind
I’ll hit the road and see what I find
So I might smoke a pack a day
But you’re addicted to your pay
Doing something you hate
Doing what they say
I’m rotting my lungs but you’re rotting your brain
Lost in a screen and your eyes are glazed
Stuffing your face locked in a cage
So I’m willing to go hungry
At least I’d have a reason to feel empty inside
I beat the shit out of my body
But I take good care of my mind
Lately I just don’t feel satisfied
With anything, I’ve made up my mind
So I’m runnin’ away from home
Like a child throwin’ a fit
And I’m screamin’ just as loud
So If comfort involves being brain dead
And sanity is acting like everyone else
Then I’d rather go without
I’d rather live what I believe
Than just pretend
Its always been the crazy ones
Who are right, time and again
my friends think I’m losing my mind
But this is the first time in my life
I’ve got my head on straight, I made up my mind
