Academic prisoner I did not ask for this but here I stand in this prison Isolated from the whole world Not allowed to go anywhere for a couple of months. I want to go home, I did not ask for this Is it a crime to be born intelligent? I am an Academic prisoner I want to leave, but where do I go I was born with this curse of intelligence All I wanted was to go to University Enjoy myself and see the pretty girls Not suffocated by assignments and tests I am an academic prisoner and I do not know my crime Books, after books, that is my life now This life never crossed my mind when I was young Now I am in a prison that I will never escape The addiction of this prison is too much Get a degree you end up committed to having Masters I am an Academic prisoner Torturous lectures, unfriendly faces Walk away, its not that easy I came a long way to give up on this sentence now It scares that sometimes I love where I am Beautiful place, made attractive, Nevertheless, to me it is just a prison Which I need to escape from A calendar on my wall When do I go home? Fade up! hands in the air I am tired of this; I gave you all that is in my mind I am an academic prisoner Nothing much I can do to change that Somebody help me... I hate this place, oh No i love it sometimes I love that feeling, tales to little girls Meaningless happiness with no form of responsibility, Locked up in heaven In chains with no way to be free Work and you be emancipated Exchanging one form of slavery with another I am nothing but an academic prisoner with nowhere to go Written by Tawona M Ranganawa
