You want to be in a gang
 And shoot up everything with a bang
 You say they'll have your back
 But education is what you lack
        
...
    
                    Education
                    
                    You want to be in a gang
 And shoot up everything with a bang
 You say they'll have your back
 But education is what you lack
 Education is the key to life
 And not getting stabbed with a knife
 Education will lead you to great heights
 And not to everyday fights
 Education will help you excel
 Not lead you to a county jail
 You won't find yourself doing ten
 In any county pen
 Or being charged with first degree murder
 In a court of order
 And as your family wail
 You're getting life without bail
 Be in a gang and stay there for keeps
 You'll find yourself underground six feet deep
 So instead of being laid to rest
 Get an education and be the best.
