A mind is a terrible thing to waste
*************************
*
The thirst of knowledge
Why do we hesitate?
We refuse to use the opportunities
For a mind is a terrible thing to waste
*
Within anything
That lives within this society
To embrace them
We must have the capabilities
*
To drive
We must first learn
For the knowledge of life
We must yearn
*
We must have that mind-set
To always achieve
For anything desired
We must roll- up our sleeves
*
For knowledge is the fuel
That ignites one’s brain
To succeed in life
The history of life we must learn and obtain
*
So many are at a loss
The lack of knowledge has paid the cost
We want to see change within our society
But we must first grasp the knowledge to change this country
*
Many will debate
Love and hate
But when it comes to the essence of knowledge
A mind is a terrible thing to waste
*
