Surrounded By Assholes

Bones Brigade

Tell me exactly what does straight edge mean
It's time for the kids to come clean
All I see is self righteous arrogance
Is it overcompensation for a guilty conscience? 
There's nothing punk about fascism and violence
Tongue in cheek with no life experience
Judging other people, a narrow list of friends
And how many of them will be true to the end? 

True till death! but who gives a shit? 
Personality counts first, don't be a labeled idiot
Straight edge or not! we can get along
Break down the walls, as one we stand strong

It's a shame how something positive has turned foul
Every show I'm at, I'm greeding by a scawl
I'm ashamed to be associated with all of this
You've given us a bad name, there's something you've missed
Straight edge is about freedom, about choice, about you
Not brass knuckles, hard moshing, or your crew
You choose for yourself, not for everyone
I choose for me and I choose to have fun

True till death! but who gives a shit? 
Personality counts first, don't be a labeled idiot
Straight edge or not! we can get along
Break down the walls, as one we stand strong

Surrounded by assholes! give it a rest
You don't know shit about the kids, based on how they're dressed
Surrounded by assholes! and negativity
Not doing drugs shouldn't imply militancy! 

I make my own choice! 
It does not affect you! 
I make my own choice! 
So fuck you!
