Education is Power!

Education should be free!
Education should incite glee!
It is all just information…
It is all just data..
We transfer knowledge..
We share our findings…

We’re a species whose ideas have an edge…
We kept thinking out of the box..
We kept making wheels and spears using rocks…
Why stop now?
Why make our children sit in a box now?
Let them think!
Let them not sink,
Sink below to the past ,
Let them grow..
Grow and glow..
Shine their brains..
See their gains…

Education should be free
Education should incite glee
It is all just information…
It is all just data..
We transfer knowledge..
We share our findings…
Let the kids choose their path…
Let the teachers be the best torch bearers…
Let us elevate their job,
So the stream will not attract slobs…
Pay them more,
Praise them more,
But test them first to pick out the best…

Education should be free!
Let there be knowledge!
Let there be light!
