Lyrics
It's time that you thought this through
Encouraging thoughtful consideration of a situation
And critical you understand
Emphasizing the importance of a critical understanding
They're not going to stop at anything
Warning that there are no limits to the actions they'll take
Until the power is in their hands
Expressing a relentless pursuit of power
"It's justice", so you say
Quoting a common justification as "justice"
I've heard it many times before
Noting familiarity with this justification
But whenever this mindset takes control
Highlighting negative consequences when this mindset prevails
We're much worse off than we were
Stating that the situation worsens under this influence
I know you're sensing something wrong
Acknowledging a sense of something being amiss
But you love the shelter of the crowd
Pointing out a preference for safety within a group
Eventually there'll be a time that comes
Anticipating a future time of reckoning
When that crowd decides to turn on you
Warning that the crowd may turn against the individual
"It's justice", so you say
Reiterating the common justification as "justice"
I've heard it many times before
Reinforcing familiarity with this justification
But whenever this mindset takes control
Reemphasizing negative consequences under this mindset
We're much worse off than we were
Restating that the situation worsens under this influence
Let it go
Advising to let go of a situation or belief
You've had your moment
Acknowledging a past moment of significance
Now let's stop this shit from going too far
Calling for a halt to prevent escalation
I know your ego wants to hold it
Acknowledging the desire to maintain control
But it's dragging you down
Warning that holding onto it is detrimental
To a level of obsession
Describing a descent into an unhealthy fixation
That's corrupting your mind
Pointing out the corruption of one's mind due to obsession
