Knowledge is key. 
You can never know too much. 
 
Well I won't let them 
Keep me from learning all I can. 
Public schools just stand up. 
The system feeds our minds. 
 
Did the system tell you about democracy? 
The same system that supported slavery? 
 
When we try to make a change 
To lock us up and throw away the key. 
 
I won't let you 
Play me for a fool 
 
But I cant pray in school. 
Make a decision for yourself 
Don't bother with any trends 
Open up a book 
And share the knowledge with your friends. 
 
Did the system tell you about democracy? 
The same system that created slavery? 
 
When we try to make a change 
To lock us up and throw away the key.
