Education Journey"
(Intro)
Mmmmm mm m...
Mmmmm mm m...
Verse 1
Life ya, life ya, school life.
Time me start lo school, me need money big time.
Ten kina, it's like a hundred kina lo me.
Rentals every two weeks while still studying,
And then me need money for the projects and assignments,
And data to research...
Me need food to survive.
Chorus
Tin tin lo night go na pillow sa wet.
Sometimes we lied in our bed, cried all night.
Why we struggle so hard?
What an education journey.
Verse 2
Me need soap, omo, to wash my dirties,
But budget tight.
Real struggle, so me round lo ask friends and borrow.
Some-pela time all sa give,
Some-pela time... no.
I sometimes walk to school because no bus fee.
Sometimes without food, sometimes pure rice.
Chorus
Tin tin lo night go na pillow sa wet.
Sometimes we lied in our bed, cried all night.
Why we struggle so hard?
What an education journey.
Bridge
Me checkim phone, close to, close to,
Looking for a new, good-pela missed call,
Or text message blo all family...
(Beat drops low/hushes)
Just waiting for that text message blo all family.
Chorus
Tin tin lo night go na pillow sa wet.
Sometimes we lied in our bed, cried all night.
Why we struggle so hard?
What an education journey.
(Outro)
Life ya, life ya, school life...
Mmmmm mm m...
What an education journey.
