Kito Kondowe - YWH (prod. T - LO) lyrics

[Chorus] Yo what happened, its like we being taught not to challenge So we can stay obedient and pa**ive Yo man what happened, as result, well the fact is We lost all our talent to imagine [Verse 1] Remember the ambition of a child to think wild To think miles ahead of things not thought prior ..Not afraid of different or dead wrong But those ambitions get diminished down to desk jobs So what happened in the in between period That's making us taking life so serious At what juncture did they instill the fear in us With which altered our child like experience We're all creative it was native nature .until the time we're taught to fear failure Its a procedure for them to feel safer They think they know better, and they're doing us a favor Keeping us uniform, tamper with our gentle soul Leave us in a mental lull, thinking one dimensional Dip us whole in the mold so we'll match them Same hole that I'm trying to crawl back from [Chorus] Yo what happened, its like we being taught not to challenge So we can stay obedient and pa**ive Yo man what happened, as a result ,well the fact is We lost all our talent to imagine [Verse 2] ..Pre-k, first day, drawing time- Confident as always as I jot from my mind Feeling pretty good about this picture of mine “This nice but you know you got to stay within the lines” ..now this Scrutiny was new to me Used to being able to express thoughts fluently ..fast forward and your soon to see That this that type of sh** that is influencing truancy Your probably thinking, “this can hardly be an issue" But when your still developing that sh** stays with you' Now I'm only doing tasks that are asked of me Its blasphemy, and not the way it has to be See my pa**ion to create was innate I was, just making crafts for creations sake I was, an inventor of all these contraptions But, along the way I lost my compa**ion [Chorus] Yo what happened, its like we being taught not to challenge So we can stay obedient and pa**ive Yo man what happened, as a result ,well the fact is We lost all our talent to imagine [Verse 3] My will is being wilted by cats who care little About the children's well being, man I hate what I'm seeing Cause in the eyes of the district board It seems were nothing more than a standardized test score Don't get me wrong I'm a fan of education But It shouldn't be designed to squander innovations The Lack of good teacher ain't the issue Their put in a predicament where they can't teach you It's Shame it's the system to Blamed They Want the free Thinkers to do as they Say They Lay the Foundation for them to Obey Lowering the Chances you'll to go against the Grain] [Chorus] Yo what happened, its like we being taught not to challenge So we can stay obedient and pa**ive Yo man what happened, as a result ,well the fact is We lost all our talent to imagine
