Bad Religion - The Resist Stance lyrics
[Bad Religion - The Resist Stance lyrics]
Seeds of rebellion lay outside
Your front door
If you nourish them and water them
They'll grow into a healthy, "what for?"
And if revolution isn't what's in store
How can you care anymore?
It's a dangerous slip, a conscientious shift
In the spirit of resistance
You gotta hold your grip
Lest the state of your resolve
Makes you quickly devolve
To a fundamentalist, yeah
You're an archetype they can pin to the wall
When you cling to your convictions like
A farm animal in it's stall
Never thinking of the bigger world outside
As they take you for a ride
It's a dangerous slip, a conscientious shift
In the spirit of resistance
You gotta hold your grip
Because passion unabated can
Be readily conflated as belligerence
It's a dangerous slip, a conscientious shift
In the spirit of resistance
You gotta hold your grip
And the verdict won't be kind
'Cause they're desperate for
A viable alternative
Take a stance, the resist stance
Take a stance, the resist stance
Take a stance, the resist stance
Take a stance, the resist stance!
Your front door
If you nourish them and water them
They'll grow into a healthy, "what for?"
And if revolution isn't what's in store
How can you care anymore?
It's a dangerous slip, a conscientious shift
In the spirit of resistance
You gotta hold your grip
Lest the state of your resolve
Makes you quickly devolve
To a fundamentalist, yeah
You're an archetype they can pin to the wall
When you cling to your convictions like
A farm animal in it's stall
Never thinking of the bigger world outside
As they take you for a ride
It's a dangerous slip, a conscientious shift
In the spirit of resistance
You gotta hold your grip
Because passion unabated can
Be readily conflated as belligerence
It's a dangerous slip, a conscientious shift
In the spirit of resistance
You gotta hold your grip
And the verdict won't be kind
'Cause they're desperate for
A viable alternative
Take a stance, the resist stance
Take a stance, the resist stance
Take a stance, the resist stance
Take a stance, the resist stance!
