education doesn't make a person


Education doesn’t make a person
We can have an education with degrees
Learning how to read, write and arithmetic
Along the way we learn to speak confidently

Will it make a person good?
It is our conduct on the move
It will define how we behave ourselves
It is how we use our inherent talents

It doesn’t come from education
It comes from where we learn while growing up
Be a good person; be a bad guy
How we treat ourselves by education

Some with PhDs talk like fools
They can’t see beyond their textbooks
They spin their tales on research
In the end it sounds hollow

It is how we conduct ourselves
In the years we will be remembered
Education can expand your skills and knowledge
But it doesn’t make you a person
