00:00Hey friends, we don't need no education, and we don't need no thought control, no
00:09dark sarcasm in the classroom. Teachers, leave them kids alone. Hey teachers, leave
00:18us kids alone. All in all, it's just another brick in the wall. All in all,
00:25you're just another brick in the wall. You know, Pink Floyd's Another Brick in
00:32the Wall is more than just a song. It's a call to arms, a cry against the
00:37oppressive systems that suffocate our individuality and freedom. It exposes the
00:43institutions that teach us to conform, that train us to be obedient and quiet.
00:49But deep down, we all know there's a fire burning inside us, and this fire can't be
00:55put out by control, by rules, or by fear. Today, we're not just talking about
01:02breaking free, we're talking about tearing down the walls they've built to
01:06keep us small, quiet, and compliant. It's time to rise, to resist, and to reclaim
01:14our power. Daddy's flown across the ocean, leaving just a memory. You know, we've
01:22been abandoned by leaders, by systems, and by those who should have stood by us.
01:27They left us with memories, with emptiness, with questions that echo. Daddy, what else
01:34did you leave for me? The answer? They left us a broken world, one filled with
01:40oppression, where our voices have been silenced. But we won't be silent any
01:46longer. Each memory, each abandonment, is a brick in the wall of their making. But
01:54we are not here to mourn, we are here to destroy that wall. All in all, it was all
02:00just bricks in the wall. What is a brick? It's something they've given us, a tool
02:08to divide, to oppress, to control. They think these bricks will keep us apart,
02:14that they'll isolate us in our own pain. But all in all, these bricks are just
02:20bricks, and we, we are going to tear them down. Every insult, every failure, every
02:28time they told us to stay in line, that's another brick. They think they've built a
02:33fortress, but it's weak, because we are the power behind it. They forgot that
02:39when we stand together, we can bring the whole thing crashing down. When we grew
02:46up and went to school, there were certain teachers who would hurt the children
02:50any way they could. You know, do you remember those people, the ones in power
02:56who used it to crush us? They belittled us, they shamed us, they tried to make us
03:02small. They tried to control us with their rules, their punishment, their so
03:07called education. They poured their decisions on us, exposing our weaknesses
03:14and laughing at our failures. But they didn't see what we were building beneath
03:19the surface. Anger, resistance, strength. We were kids then, but we're not kids
03:26anymore. They may have scarred us, but we will use those scars as fuel to rise up
03:33and burn the system that wounded us. We don't need no education. We don't need no
03:40thought control. We don't need the lessons they forced down our throats. We
03:45don't need their propaganda. We don't need their rules, their scripts, or their
03:49chains. We're not here to be controlled. We're here to be free. We don't need
03:56their dark sarcasm in the classroom telling us that we're less than, that we
04:01need to fall in line. No, we stand against that control. We stand against
04:07their classrooms, their prisons, their institutions of conformity. It's time to
04:12shout, teachers, leave them kids alone. Leave us all alone, because we are done
04:19being told how to think, how to act, how to be. Hey teachers, leave us alone. Leave
04:26everyone alone. All in all, you're just another brick in the wall. Every
04:32authority figure, every teacher, every leader who tried to control us is just
04:37another brick, and these bricks are going to come tumbling down. They tried to
04:43build a world that keeps us contained, but they forgot one thing. We've seen
04:49through their lies. We've seen the cracks in their wall, and now we're coming for
04:54it. I don't need no arms around me. I don't need no drugs to calm me. We don't
05:03need their fake comforts, their distractions, their mind-numbing
05:07solutions. We don't need anything that keeps us complacent. We don't need their
05:12false promises, their medications, their empty reassurances. We've seen the
05:17writing on the wall, and it says one thing, revolt. It's not about surviving
05:23anymore. It's about tearing it all down. Goodbye, cruel world. But this isn't the
05:31end for us. It's the end of their world, the world of control, the world of
05:36oppression. We're saying goodbye to those systems that told us we weren't enough.
05:41Goodbye to the lies that kept us afraid. Goodbye to the people who thought they
05:47could break us. Goodbye to the wall. We're not leaving quietly. We're leaving with
05:53fire in our hearts, and when we go, we're taking their structures down with us.
05:59Think about the walls around you right now, the walls they've built with every
06:04lie, every insult, every rule that kept you in line. It's time to stop adding
06:10bricks to the wall they built. It's time to start ripping them out one by one.
06:16What happens when a wall crumbles? Everything changes. Today, we're not just
06:22talking about breaking free. We're talking about a movement, a revolution. So
06:28look around. Look at the people beside you. Together, we are stronger than any
06:33wall they could ever build. Let this be the moment we stop being bricks and
06:39start being a force that brings their world down. This is our time to rise,
06:46fight, and bring down the wall. Because I don't need no arms around me, and I don't
06:56need no drugs to calm me. I have seen the writing on the wall. Don't think I need
07:05anything at all. No, don't think I need anything at all. All in all, it was all
07:14just bricks in the wall. All in all, you were all just bricks in the wall. Thank
07:25you.
