Let it burn

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?
Xxxxx
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
Xxxxxxx
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.
