Breaking Free: Defying Conformity in Bill Wurtz's 'School'
Lyrics
I don't wanna go to school
I have no desire to attend school.
Because I'm stupid
The reason for not wanting to go to school is a perceived lack of intelligence.
I don't want nobody telling me what to do
I resist external authority and don't want others dictating my actions.
Or how to get through this
I don't want guidance on how to navigate life's challenges.
I don't want nobody telling me what to think
I reject the idea of others influencing my thoughts.
Telling me how to sing
I resist external influence in expressing myself, especially through singing.
Telling me how to do everything
I want autonomy and independence in all aspects of life.
I don't wanna be afraid
I don't want to live in fear, particularly of criminals.
Of criminals
Fear of dangerous politicians is also undesirable.
I don't wanna be afraid
I reject the idea of living in fear of authority figures.
Of dangerous politicians
Specifically, fear of politicians is mentioned as undesirable.
I don't wanna be afraid of you
Fear of others, including oneself, is not desired.
Or of me
Fear of the truth is something to avoid.
Or the truth
A general rejection of fear, including the truth.
