lirik lagu protest rap against ib – eeshan zele

[introduction]
in the 11th grade we all started dp
the hype was real
the type of zeal
that got us off our seats
had heard all the horror stories ‘bout how it never lets us be
but we thought we were strong
oh boy were we wrong
it was supposed to make us leaders
change-makers and preachers
with the knowledge to inquire
to view the world beneath us
oh how we were pumped
but our hopes were thumped
and all got bummed
by the people behind the board
who turned us into their scores

[verse 1]
since day 1 the workload was imprisoning
summatives and formatives constantly incoming
now why should i be imprisoned if i haven’t committed a crime?
leave us no spare time
taking all of our dimes
720 for the full sit
this is complete bullsh-t
why should quality education be only for rich kids?
well, time for a quiz kids
can someone explain this happens?
taught to combat poverty
while this system be committing robbery
of time, emotion and intellectual property
supposed to be high quality
discouraging our curiosity
increasing my anxiety
all night studying
sleep-deprived and worrying
at least this counts for cas

[verse 2]
how can learning be measured if grading’s so subjective?
makes all of our hard work seem ineffective
where’s the standardization?
dependent on the teacher
and on their mood
well, isn’t this skewed?
kevin gives it a seven
bree give a three
same piece of work
such a big difference
aced it or fail
how’s this even fair?

[verse 3]
6 subjects, tok, cas and ee
all time spent on that, no time for me
what’s the purpose of a holistic approach?
creating a jack of all trades, what’s the matter with our grades?
what kind of a system has been made?
this should be undone, what if i get a one?
in today’s world masters of one are valued
having more use, becoming better youth
and learning the truth

[verse 4]
what if i want to pursue sports?
no you can’t do that
play sports on the side
counts as cas hours
still have to complete the reports
learn your calculus
finish the -n-lysis
you now have no time
enjoying is a crime
studying all the time
wish i could turn back time
is it too late to take ap?!
what the h-ll is going on
well, the world is moving on
i’m stuck out here
tryna figure this out

[verse 5]
to push standards of education consider the students
you need to make improvements
it’s time for change
in this day and age
there is really no point
imparting education
to push the limits
we shouldn’t prohibit
provide for all, through minimum withdrawals
more flexibility, allowing for versatility
helping the students, increasing dp’s feasibility
a non-profit organization shouldn’t focus on earning
instead focus on the student’s learning
help us manage our stress
allowing the world to progress
becoming a huge success, as they set out to do

or, don’t stay in school
