Lyrics Inside My Head - Akira the Don
Given
the
triumphant
academic
setting
here
An
obvious
question
is
how
much
of
this
work
Of
adjusting
our
default
setting
Involves
actual
knowledge
or
intellect
This
question
gets
very
tricky
Probably
the
most
dangerous
thing
about
an
academic
education
At
least
in
my
own
case
Is
that
it
enables
my
tendency
to
over-intellectualize
stuff
To
get
lost
in
abstract
arguments
inside
my
head
Instead
of
simply
paying
attention
To
what
is
going
on
right
in
front
of
me
Paying
attention
to
what
is
going
on
Inside
me
As
I'm
sure
you
guys
know
by
now
It
is
extremely
difficult
to
stay
alert
and
attentive
Instead
of
getting
hypnotized
By
the
constant
monologue
inside
your
own
head
It
may
be
happening
right
now
Twenty
years
after
my
own
graduation
I
have
come
gradually
to
understand
That
the
liberal
arts
cliché
about
Teaching
you
how
to
think
Is
actually
shorthand
for
a
much
deeper
More
serious
idea
Learning
how
to
think
Really
means
learning
how
to
exercise
some
control
Over
how
and
what
you
think
It
means
being
conscious
and
aware
enough
To
choose
what
you
pay
attention
to
And
to
choose
how
you
construct
meaning
from
experience
Learning
how
to
think
Learning
how
to
think
Learning
how
to
think
Learning
how
to
think
Because
if
you
cannot
exercise
this
kind
of
choice
in
adult
life
You
will
be
totally
Hosed
Think
of
the
old
cliché
about,
quote
"The
mind
being
an
excellent
servant
but
a
terrible
master."
This
Like
many
clichés
So
lame
and
unexciting
on
the
surface
Actually
expresses
a
great
and
terrible
truth
It
is
not
the
least
bit
coincidental
that
adults
Who
commit
suicide
with
firearms
Almost
always
shoot
themselves
in
The
head
The
head
They
shoot
the
terrible
master
And
the
truth
is
that
most
of
these
suicides
Are
actually
dead
long
before
they
pull
the
trigger
And
I
submit
that
this
is
what
the
real
No
bullshit
value
of
your
liberal
arts
education
Is
supposed
to
be
about
How
to
keep
from
going
through
your
comfortable
Prosperous
Respectable
adult
life
Dead
Unconscious
A
slave
to
your
head
And
to
your
natural
default
setting
of
being
uniquely
Completely
Imperially
alone
Day
in
and
day
out
That
may
sound
like
hyperbole
Or
abstract
nonsense
Let's
get
concrete
The
plain
fact
is
that
you
graduating
seniors
Do
not
yet
have
any
clue
what
'Day
in
day
out'
Really
means
Learning
how
to
think
Learning
how
to
think
Learning
how
to
think
Learning
how
to
think
Learning
how
to
think
Learning
how
to
think
Learning
how
to
think
Learning
how
to
think
