Disciplined Mind Escapism (by Florian Weinhold)

Disciplined mind escapism
can surmount Illiberalism,
misanthropic aberration,
through poetic humanism

Opting out of education
Messing up state's calculation
university's pretension
money-making corporation

If you pay enough attention
see that crime is in ascension
bankers, lawyers, managers and
politicians - mob extensions

March between classrooms and hold hands
let them lead you to mind's lowlands
Higher you will never reach, clear?!
Worthless facts one in your mind crams

Parents pay for mind control dear
They don't see the banker's foul sneer
when he grabs your cash, the vulture
Marrow mine aches, squirms in cold fear

Our disciplin'ry culture,
state enforced financier's sculpture,
chipped away humanity yours
Grassroots paying Bill the Butcher

Will you let it run its own course?
I tell you I'm not the right horse
Want our riders' abdication
Teach ourselves and see what is false.

Opting out of education
Messing up state's calculation
peace and people in ascension
hand-in-hand cooperation
everybody of one station.
