"80% OF MY PROBLEMS ARE CAUSED BY THE EDUCATION SYSTEM"

DESCRIPTION: I wrote it because my friend was being annoiyng and a bootlicker, and deep down i'm anxious. that too.

```[ intro slow ]
my crippling debt and awful mental health
they call it "depression" but i blame the commonwealth
my social skills and career options dwindling
but this is how it's meant to be... how it's meant to be, right?

...

*tempoi up!!!*

[ verse ]
my hairline is thinning as i reach an old age
if only i got a better score in fifth grade :yawning_face:
if i had wasted my childhood maybe i would be happier
now? that's how it's meant to be, how it's meant to be...

my parents will like to say it's all my fault
my friends also like to say it's all my fault
that's because it is definitely my fault for not playing by the rules
that's how it's meant to be (apparently)

apparently..............

*tempo up even more*

[ prehocurs ]
but what aobut the people who were left behind
while you ran away and paid it no mind?
you ran away with a preconception of "lazy"
but i was working harder than you, don't you see?

*tempo down a little, back to before the prechorus(

[ chorus ]
it's a child's duty to do what they're told
or at least that's what we were taught when we were five years old
what are we meant to do once we grow up?
i don't know, that's the one thing you don't learn at school

80% of my problems are caused by the education system
80% of my problems are caused by the education system
the other problems are caused by the legal system
80% of my problems are caused by the education system

[ verse ]
how do i lead a happy life? how do i keep friends
how do i make my career not hit a dead end?
all they focus is on following orders but then
who will make the orders? nobody

because...
[ prechorus ]
all we do is copy what came before
humanity remaining the same at its core - as fools
following traditions as we exist and as we die
brush the outliars under the rug and hope it'll fly

it's okay... right?
it's definitely okay...... i say, as i make more excuses for why it's okay that i'll die alone
because i didn't get a high enough grade
when i was twelve years old
