Education is a privilege not all of us are given
And these social structures re-assure that the wealth remains
In the pockets and bank accounts of the already wealthy
Knowledge is power
Might be a worn out statement, but it remains the truth
Always has and always will
Fed up and out of patience, frustration spills out on the streets
The tables are turning
The cities are burning
And the fact still remains that in the eyes of justice
We are not the same
Money makes the world go 'round
No one stands up or makes a sound
Cause silence is rewarded and no one cares if you can read or write
The tables are turning
The cities are burning
And the fact still remains that in the eyes of justice
Keep your ear to the ground,
It's all a calculated scheme
Paranoia or total awareness
Nothing's really what it seems
Knowledge is power
Might be a worn out statement, but it remains the truth
Always has and always will
Fed up and out of patience, frustration spills out on the streets
The tables are turning
The cities are burning
And the fact still remains that in the eyes of justice
We are not the same
