Sallie Mae


 

20,000 dollars a year for what

So I can take 13 hours of school

It must come with an inside pool

Why can’t it be free?

We want free education

Instead I got old lady Sallie Mae calling my phone asking if I’m still in school

They ready to get that love they showed me back

So when I graduate all I got is a degree to hang on the wall and a job I Don’t have because thought I was going to get because of it

Not to mention 100000 dollars’ worth of loans that sure sounded good at the time

So why can’t education be free

Why can’t we go to school for free?

If I had the power school would be free

Give everybody a chance to learn and educate themselves

Knowledge is power
