Question Authority
Challenging Authority: Embracing Individual Voice
Lyrics
Question authority
Challenging the legitimacy and rightfulness of authority.
Have they the right to say how it should be?
Raising a question about whether those in power have the authority to dictate how things should be.
Should one man be able to write it all down?
Questioning whether one person should have the sole authority to determine and define everything.
When half the time he can't tell right from wrong
Highlighting the inconsistency of someone in power who may struggle to discern between right and wrong.
question authority
Reiterating the call to question authority and resist blindly following another person's laws.
Another mans law is not right for me
Expressing the belief that laws imposed by others may not be suitable or just for oneself.
Another lie to bleed my sympathy
Asserting that some laws are based on lies and designed to exploit empathy.
Another time there will be no pity
Suggesting that in the future, there will be no mercy or compassion for those who blindly follow unjust authority.

Prompting reflection on whether the current state of affairs is what one truly desires to witness.

The glory and the power
Emphasizing the grandeur and authority that come with the world as an inheritance.
is this what you wan to see?

Things to be,things to be
