I Am........trapped in the system


I am a student.

I am a student who has to find who he is

I am a student trapped in the system of the school and the law 

I am a student that has been taught that I can speak my mind and the law will protect me

I am a student that found out that is a lie

I am a student that is traped in the corrner

A corner that is backed up and if I try to escape people will judge

The law will prosecute you if you speak the truth

The truth will set you free they tell you

The truth wil set you free

Society will not listen to me because of the truth 

We say F*ck the system but we follow it

F*ck the system but if you say the truth you will get F*cked

I am a student who is being pressured by the system.
