School Life

School Life

When you're a small kid, just a teeny toddler

And you walk into the massive building called school

You're scared down to your last cell

You think rather than being educated, you should stay a fool

Ah ! But that's where you are dearly mistaken

For school is the best thing that will ever happen to you

For the people you meet and the things you learn

You come out of there a brand new you

And down that same road, I have been

And the road has come to an end now

But I have learnt much in my schooling life

And I have to leave, but I don't know how

It taught me math, though I didn't like it much

And it taught me science, I was alright

And it taught me all my speaking skills

It taught me what's wrong, and what's right

It inspired my writing skills, the reason I write this 

It taught me the true meaning of friendship

And the friends I have made here, they took me on a journey

A journey that will never end, I will always stay on this Friend Ship

I cried many tears in this place called school

But then it taught me how to stand up

And to face my problems, to face my fears

It provided me with the care and the love

I learnt how to be disciplined

I learnt all about time management

And how to adjust and care for another

Oh the countless hours in school we spend !

And I met the most amazing human beings

Be it teachers or my fellow school mates

Some appeared to be rather mean sometimes

But none of them I could ever hate

School is where I first played basketball

That happiness I get with ball in my hand

And wearing my school jersey proudly

Determined in court I stand

The endless gossip across the corridors

The teasing with your first school crush 

And the thrill in troubling a teacher

That punishment which gives you an adrenaline rush

Oh I'll miss these crazy times at school

I mean it from the bottom of my heart

It's all just brushed past me so fast

Up until now, right from the start

But memories last forever, these ones will for sure

The tears, the fears and all the happy times

They have made me who I am today

And oh it's been a great climb

And those who shared this journey with me

I couldn't thank you enough

For being there for me by my side

Through good times but also rough

So school you see is a magical place

And you'll miss it all when it's over

If I had the chance to do it all again

I would do it over and over
