You'll Be Glad
Embrace the Rebellion: Unveiling the Liberation in 'You'll Be Glad'
Lyrics
You'll be glad when you ditch your friends
You will experience satisfaction when you distance yourself from your current friends.
You'll be glad when you're more like them
You will find contentment when you become more similar to those around you.
You'll be glad when you dumb yourself down
You will feel pleased when you lower your intellectual or creative standards.
Sit back and let me rant and rave don't let me tell you how to behave
Please listen as I express my opinions strongly; do not let me dictate your behavior.
Thought you'd be the last to conform inked it in skin things you'd sworn
Despite your initial resistance, you seem to have conformed to societal expectations, even going against your previously expressed values.
All of a sudden take it all back drink drink drink fall face down flat
Suddenly retracting your previous stance, engaging in excessive drinking, and ending up in a vulnerable position.
Drink it up but don't fuck it up can you handle it and act grown up
Indulge in the experience, but be cautious not to ruin it; can you handle it and act responsibly?
Bitched about it for so damn long you think you're not what you complained about? wrong
Having complained about a situation for a long time, you may have become what you originally criticized.
Just another brick in the wall, better hope that you don't fall
You're just another conformist, and it's crucial to avoid falling into the same traps as others.
You'll be glad when you get the nerve
You will experience satisfaction when you gather the courage to do something you've been hesitant about.
You'll be glad kick em to the curb
You will be pleased when you confidently end relationships with certain individuals.
You'll be glad when you get dumbed down
You will find contentment when you simplify or lower your expectations and standards.
It seems to me you've given up, dropped you're mind and grabbed a cup
It appears that you have given up on thinking independently, opting for a mindless existence and seeking solace in alcohol.
Turned around and walked away from what you lived just yesterday
You turned away from the life you once lived, abandoning it just a day ago.
But thats ok you're happy now only doing what they allow
Despite the changes, you seem content with conforming to societal norms and restrictions.
Picking up and moving on but i still wonder what went wrong
You are moving forward, but there's a lingering question about what went wrong in the past.
Maybe we're not cool enough but you should be glad cuz you're hot stuff - right?
Perhaps you felt excluded because you weren't considered cool enough, but take pride in being attractive now - is that not right?
