Holier-Than-Thou

Nobody knows it
They choose to deny it
They look for excuses
And get so defensive
People talk too much about change
Always looking for someone to blame
Hates become the fuel for our days
Unity is now obsolete
See it,
All the judgement
All the anger
All the holier than thou preachers
And that's the problem
There's too much talk
In a world that's too fucking gone
With all its judgement
All the anger
All the holier than thou preachers
And so we sit back
Become depressed
As we watch our world slowly...
Nobody knows it (we're all too blame now)
They choose to deny it
They look for excuses (we're all too blame now)
And get so defensive
So quick we are to cast out stones
The lynch mob bullies of the playground
Opinions sprout as the assholes come out
Respect is now a double standard
See it,
All the judgement
All the anger
All the holier than thou preachers
And that's the problem
We're all exhausted
In a world that's too fucking gone
With all its judgement
All the anger
All the holier than thou preachers
And so we sit back
Become depressed
As we watch our world slowly die
Be the change you want to see
Don't blindly follow along with the sheep
You can't have it all both ways
Were supposed to be on the same team.
Nobody knows it.

No you won't
Yes you will
No you won't
Yes you will
No you won't
Yes you will...
Who are you trying to convince here?
Because you ain't fooling me
You often go through the cycles
A real desire to achieve
With no motivation
No you won't
Yes you will
No you won't
Yes you will
No you won't
Yes you will...
Who are you trying to convince here?
It's like we're going in circles
And I guess we've been here before
Shall we do it again?
No you won't
Yes you will
No you won't
Yes you will
No you won't
Yes you will...
Who are you trying to convince?

Headlines in the paper
Another one gunned down
Violence in our neighbourhood
How safe are you feeling now?
Guns are in demand
With the future in our hands
So what's to become of it?
And how safe are you feeling now?
You're so quick to the trigger
When there's fear around every fuckin' corner
Do you feel safe now?
Now that you own a gun
The world's pulls on the trigger
And then pleads the victim.

Justify

Raise your hand
When you've got a question
Stand in line
Do what you're told
Do as they say
And it will all be okay
Sell your soul
For the greater good
Justify
Who's in control
Justify
The power they hold
Justify
Pompous egos
Justify through force
They'll take the land
With no questions asked
Pipelines through indigenous homes
You're reconcile
Is just more broken hope
We're just pawns
In your political world
Justify
Who's in control
Justify
The power they hold
Justify
Pompous egos
Justify through force
The longer we wait
The more they take
The future is teetering on the brink
A buck a beer?
Are you fucking joking
What the fucks that going to do?
Why not something for those here struggling to survive
Food, shelter, wages, education
The necessities in life
Are the things we need to be focusing on
To help save the future for the young
And show them all that there is
Still a life out there that's worth living for.
We shouldn't have to justify our right to live.

Choices Made Toronto, Ontario
CHOICES MADE are a 4-piece hardcore/punk band from Toronto, Ontario.

Buy this if you like the 80's melodic hardcore sound of the Descendents. Every song is good and short in true 80's hardcore form, the way it's supposed to be. This is the next best album in my opinion after Milo Goes To College. The original lineup are the ones who wrote and perform the songs on this album! It even sounds like they used the same exact instruments, just with higher recording quality. You NEED this if you're a huge Descendents fan!
