Nobody's Business
I walk around UCLA daily
You expect to inhale scholarly success,
but those very heirs to the innovative technology world knows not what their future holds
with all their robots and seismographs and innovations and rocket ships,
Did I mention technology?
Well, technically the homeless man with his masters degree in business,
in front of the Bruin's theater begging me for a dollar to eat is still lost in the aroma...
the air of success.
And it's nobody's business that he's bearing all his business to the heirs of the very throne he, himself was never guaranteed.
A degree does not equal success
Lack of one doesn't mean you'll digress
Life is finding your craft
Success is doing the math
If you're not educated enough
You'll be unprepared to defend your business when times get rough
And it's nobody's business, but you'd end up bearing all your business on the very corner you thought you'd never end up a beggar because you didn't choose to get an education.
