Against the grain
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
No more, no more
You heard this before?
Forever resisting a traditionalist mode
In search of equality - a never ending road
Attitudes, thoughts over years have taken hold
Manifested in people accepting the foretold
No real reasoning behind this system of thought
Constant evaluation keeps me from getting caught
Simple honesty with scope makes a difference
One dimensional thinking lacks freedom or sense
CHORUS:
Go - Against the grain - change from within
Against the grain - constructive way to begin
Go - Against the grain - change from inside
Against the grain - we must try
Barrieres, limitations, both cultural and institutional
Erosion of these boundaries is absolutely crucial
Counter cultures evolve too many to name
But how many of them inspire real change?
CHORUS
Hit it!
Agains the grain in our general direction
Growing stronger since our inception
But always open to your inspection
My head is spinning set to burst
And your rections? I expect the worst
Gotta think of a way to end this verse
Against the grain the way we'd like to go
For how long now we can never know
Ain't gonna be no guitar solo!
Laid out our thoughts in this song
Against what we believe is wrong
We've remained this way now all along - Against the grain
No more no more - Intolerance
No more no more - Irrationality
No more no more - Hypocrisy
No more no more - Apathy
CHORUS
Against the grain!
