How can the means to life be
  To settle down with an occupation
  Go to your job, and take your station
  We work to live, and live to work
  If this be my life, may I go berserk
  Nothing is worse then to hate your profession
  To learn this once, is to learn your lesson
But a different future I see

I will never take my place
  In the world as it is given
I'll forge a path at my own pace
  By happiness I'm driven
And my future I embrace
  I have a different vision
  


Lucidity is the answer to all problems

a well penned thought of the way you want your life to be. do what you wanna do, be who you wanna be. good thought, good format.

We all got somethin' we need to atone for.

Excellent...
The first thought when i read this was YES!!
This is exactly how I feel. I detest school, the thought of
"We work to live, and live to work
  If this be my life, may I go berserk
  Nothing is worse then to hate your profession"
is very true.

I'm going to do what the last stanza says.
Keep it up!
