What do you think this poem is about?

EDUCATION

Wonder who will be going to be me and you
This education is for me and you
This future is for me and you
My life, my happiness and yours too
I use to ask me, myself and I
Watching to world my teeth grinds very hard
Wonder who will going to be me and you
I Sleep but I didn't felt sleep how could I sleep while the tribe of Shaka is in the war
But the war, iam not interested because me and war is like a bull and a bull in one kraal
I want to drink a redbull instead to give me those wings to fly with education.
The man of the people the man of trouble makers.I mean this man who release South Africa
Doctor nelson Mandela recognize education
This burden was taken by him to our shoulders we should show them what it mean to be educated
We haven't get it long time ago I was not there but I feel like I was one of them
They cry they fight they strike, they sacrifice with their lives, they were not satisfy
With their future and they were killed they were arrested
But now we are enjoying the fruit of education that is red of love but like their blood that split when they being killed
They aim higher education and they get to the nearest.
Ok it fine I see they say there is no gain without pain, that why they pay for us.
This became a step to step look at it, it going forward ok I know it because it from the fish species it always going forward without backward
Wonder who will be going to be me and you
But now we have the future to talk on, plug on all the books, make it booking for you an accommodation of the future
I didn't know how can I improve my life but now it clear, the life is easier but it because of it
The burden burning
Positive attitude + hard work = success, no sunset without sunrise and sunshine
Wonder who will going to be me and you
Without being educated, let us being dedicated, addicted so that will be graduated
This what I mean education is the key to success it open gates for you and me to
Love this life not to hates this life because it nothing can beats this, touch this education
Who were going to be without education?
