Real World (reading 1)

I see them struggling to reach that place
And in their efforts they lose their face
They played the game and got their dues
But is it worth it to kill your Muse?
Makes me think that ...
'Those who can do. Those who can't teach' to avoid the 'real world'. The truth of who can and who can't in this world or that is that there is no truth only perspectives in a socially constructed universe.
