from Climb Trees Every Day, released June 22, 2014
Just because something exists, doesn't mean that it should
Because a thought persists, doesn't make it good
and you say science keeps on moving forward
and we learn new things every day
but where history's concerned we just repeat ourselves again and again and again

And all the time good men do nothing, or are too busy with there own lives
and it's left up to the misfits and the kids who don't fit in
thank god for them or else i think none of them would survive
so next time that you look down from your plate glass tower
and see someone kicking at the doors of power
don't judge cos you've been judged and found wanting where it matters
get off your pedestal before it shatters

I think that I know my limitations, I know who i want to be and i a poor mans imitation
but i also know the power of when people work together,
when we work as a collective force we can change things for the better
and i know i don't have all the solutions, that's not my place to decide
but I'll try my best, to make a contribution and together we can try to put things right
