Akira The Don, Dr. Jordan B. Peterson - You Can Say No lyrics

[Akira The Don, Dr. Jordan B. Peterson - You Can Say No lyrics]

I'm dead serious about this, it's like
Sort yourself out

Absolutely, sort yourself out, and and
Marshal your arguments, and put
Yourself in order, so that
When someone pushes you a little
Farther than you should go

You can say, "No" you can say, "No"
Then when someone pushes you a little
Farther than you should go you can say, "No"
You can say, "No"

Here's some fundamental rules about the
Shadow that you might
Think about as you move
Forward through your life
So a lot of times you're gonna have
To negotiate on your own behalf
You should be able to stand up for


Yourself at least, as well as
You would stand up for someone
That you care for
The problem with the idea of
Being nice to other
People is that it doesn't
Take you into account
The fundamental rule is that you
Should certainly include yourself in
The circle of people who
Deserve respect and care
And that means that you have to
Be willing to advocate for yourself
And if you're willing to advocate for
Yourself, and you wanna do it
You have to be able to say "No"
You have to, because otherwise you
Have to say "Yes"
And then you can't negotiate

You can say, "No" you can say, "No"
Then when someone pushes you a little
Farther than you should go you can say, "No"
You can say, "No"

And in order to say, "No"
You have to have armed
Yourself with strategies and
Plans that enable you to say "No"
You can't be dependent
You have to be willing to stand your ground
There's not much evidence that sorts
Of atrocities that characterize
The Soviet union and Nazi
Germany were the result
Of a few extremely corrupt people at the top
Of the hierarchy, forcing everyone
Down into slavery
And then making them do terrible things
I think that's a very weak explanation
Then when you look at
Human capacity for destructiveness
If you don't regard yourself as
One of the agents of
That destructiveness, or at least one
Of the potential agents, then
From the Jungian perspective, at least
There's a high probability that you're
Part of the problem

You can say, "No" you can say, "No"
Then when someone pushes you a little
Farther than you should go you can say, "No"
You can say, "No"

If you familiarize yourself with the
Realm of human capability
And then you regard yourself as human
What that means is that you
Have to regard yourself
As a creature that's capable of what
Human beings are capable of
And human beings are capable of
A lot of things and some of them are
Absolutely wonderful, I mean
There's nothing more remarkable than a
Human being on the planet
People can do amazing things
But the downside of that is
That we can do absolutely horrible things
And it's not obvious that it's
Only the pathological people who do that
In facts
It's that it's not reasonable to assume that

You can say, "No" you can say, "No"
Then when someone pushes you a little
Farther than you should go you can say, "No"
You can say, "No"

New age thinkers tell you things like follow
Your bliss and you'll encounter utopia, but
That isn't what the Jungians
Especially Jung said about his process
Of individuation at all
He said that if you follow what's
Meaningful and you do it honestly
It will take you somewhere you really do not
Wanna go, and until you go there
You'll never be able to climb up
Higher on the other side
