Soul music about schoolbooks? WSW Ep. 12

Welcome back to the 12th Episode of the 1-hour songwriting challenge known as Wacky Song Wednesday! Can we write a soul song about schoolbooks? What could you come up with in 1-hour?
Lyrics:
Laid down at my feet
And holding the key
Knowledge
Sometimes I get to think
They’re holding me down
Weighted
But on the page
The words they say
Will lead me

Still figuring out integrating video footage from my new camera and syncing audio. Let me know if you have any tips on things I could do differently to improve or to show off what you came up with.
