lyrics

Now I know this may come off as decisive
But, hey, ain’t that kinda what life is?
If you’re not standin up to people bein assholes
How can you expect others to help you when you’re gettin hassled?

Let’s take the spotlight off our lives
Look to those who have nothing and recognize
When a position of privilege gives you options
You can afford to use your conscience

What kind of life do you want to say you led?
One where others had to die for you to keep yourself fed?
I think it’s time these stupid traditions cease to spread
We can make this the end

It’s time to make a change
We’ve got to rearrange
Our tastes and replace debate with action
Choices you make today
Will crumble or maintain
A world devoid of empathy and compassion

Poison the air we breathe
Pollute the water we drink
Feed us cancer, obesity, and heart disease
We doublethink a fantasy
Distinct from the inhumanity
Well, I reject your fallacy

What kind of world would you like to leave behind?
One more empathetic, healthier and kind?
Or would you rather shrug it off and put up your blinds?
Open your heart and mind

It’s time to make a change
We’ve got to rearrange
Our tastes and replace debate with action
Choices you make today
Will delay or give strength
To mounting cultural chain reactions

Make pure the air we breathe
Cleanse the water we drink
Free yourself from exploitation and slavery
End the brutality of factory farming

And build a world of empathy and compassion
