WHAT'S THE SONG ABOUT?
It's about the corruption and the gangsta's world. Many of the lyrics are very dark and tragic and are meant to be a criticism of the violence and tragedy of the "gangsta" life.



WRITING: GIVING YOUR OPINION:
I think the system is not very effective, because the percentage; 30% students in Catalonia don't get ESO Certificate, is very high, probably if the system was good the percentage wouldn't be this number.
I think the students should study more.
There are parents who don't spend time with their children but there are parents who spend a lot of time helping and talking with them.
My average class is between 6 and 7, I think.
The problem is the system the students and the parents, because they all have some blame on it.
