Hold Your Breath

Thrown in without a vest, life truly is the ultimate test, they tell you you'll succeed, just do your best, you can be anything you wanna be, truth is improvisation is key, for the survival of you and me, like an endless game of chess, but you were taught checkers just like the rest, unprepared we feel depressed, lost in our programed emptiness, bishop to e3? You mean I jumped your piece so king me? Go to college and get a degree, then what? I don't know, but I thought education was key? It is, but only to a certain degree, just follow the wave to its crest, don't sink, and hold your breath.
