Education


Education is the key to success

without it you'll have inadequateness

not living your life your dreams flying by

education is the key to success

 

la educación es la llave al èxito

education is the key to success

for this my friend I know

emmerson said so

la educación aritmética es la mejor

arithmetic education is the best

 

education is what wrote this poem

not my hands or my fingers 

but knowledge all alone

education is what keeps me going 

in my zone I'm knowing

that education be having me flowing

education is my motivation 

it keeps me high like kush

im elevating 

ha education

yea it got me doing this poem with patience

 

they say most of us is failing schools

failing students failing scholars

so why is everybody down Detroit back

like little leaches with no collars

education is all we got

cause in the streets you'll get popped

how you think we out here surviving

no mom or dad 

knowledge is what we rely in

 

education

its the best

we break our necks

to learn what's next

education is the key to success

think about it cause college is what's next
