Whole Education Without Getting Schooled
by Eli Gerzon
Whole education without getting schooled
without getting fooled
without getting your mind ruled
turned into a tool
made to work like a mule
no, I ain't that kinda fool
"Whole" with the same etymology as "holy" and "health"
It's all about true spiritual wealth
As you reach a knowledge-of-self
You live life as you want, not as you're dealt
"Whole" as in anything learned today will apply tomorrow
I suggest you forget all that sorrow:
"Must study history! Must study chemistry!
Must study a math text to learn how to get stressed!"
'Cause when any subject is thoroughly inspected
It's apparent to everything else it's connected
"Whole" as in complete with unity
With everyone part of a community
When you know everyone is interconnected
Propaganda that says "hate," is ineffective
"Whole" as in living with all of life's beauty
Love, peace, truth, freedom: this may sound fruity
But there's more to life than chasing after booty
Or chasing after grades or jobs with lots of cash
We could all be phoenixes, and rise from the ash
Soar past hate and oppression
Soar past fear and disconnection
This may all sound improbable
But just imagine, what is possible.
This may all sound improbable
But just imagine, what is possible.
