Conviction Lyrics by Contravene

A Call to Action

0

We talk about autonomy and respect, but all I see is a lack of responsibility
Sometimes the difference between what's wrong or right
Is not just a matter of personal insight
We shouldn't have to worry about punks driving while intoxicated
We shouldn't have the stupid fights when people are annihilated
We shouldn't have to hear the many statements based on bigotry
With negative references to gender, race and others' sexuality
An honest mistake or an act of convenience?
An honest mistake or a pure lack of common sense?
Do we have no conviction for the words we like to say?
Riding down this path of stagnancy, surely there's a better way
If we refuse to start to care then this is how things will stay
Think before you consume
And think before you act
If we don't, nothing will change - It's a proven fact
If we're gonna sit back and complain about the laws we shouldn't need
Then go and commit the very crimes on which law makers feed
Don't try to play "make-believe" in this false reality
Where you steal from friends and don't give a fuck while screaming "anarchy"
An honest mistake or an act of convenience?
An honest mistake or a pure lack of common sense?
Do we have no conviction for the words we like to say?
Riding down this path of stagnancy, surely there's a better way
???
If we refuse to start to care then this is how things will stay
We talk about respect
And autonomy
But all that I see
Is a lack of responsibility
Sometimes the difference
Between what's wrong or right
Is not a matter of opinion
Or personal insight
