Reconsider Everything Lyrics
How do they get programmed to your following?
Everyone's locked up in, in their suffering
The only way you can tell is Reconsider Everything.
The only thing I can prove is there is no proof.
Don't be so sure that your source is correct
People believed it before, before they had checked
Before you just give them their way?
How many times can they say it
Until you let them have their say
Heart it will come back twice more
Never deny your own instinct
Reconsider Everything
Something just want grass some they want gold
Either way does it feel good or feel low
Taking you down not fast, but real slow
Does not a true free-thinker make
To go against for its own sake
You're still controlled by the course that the other man takes
Reconsider Everything
Reconsider Everything
Reconsider everything
How many times will they do the same thing? How did they get programmed to, your following? Everyone’s locked up in their suffering The only way you can tell is reconsider everything
What if the truth is that there is no truth The only thing I can prove is there is no proof Don’t be so sure that your source is correct People believed it before, before they had checked
How many times can they tell you Til you just give them their way How many times can sell you Til you let them have their say Every time you will ignore your Heart it will come back twice more Never deny your own instinct Reconsider Everything
Everybody want something they control Some just want grass some they want gold Either way does it feel good or feel low Taking you down not fast but real slow
Rebellion done for it's own sake Does not a true free thinker make To go against for it's own sake You're still controlled by the course that the other man takes
Reconsider everything, reconsider everything Reconsider everything, reconsider everything Reconsider everything, reconsider everything Reconsider everything
Correct lyrics
This song to me basically says take everything into account, take a step back and look at what your about to do
First off lets get those lyrics fixed. Second, Nick's lyrics have a great general lesson to take with you through one's life journey. Seems like SA is dissing marijuana, something that I tend to do at times, other times I feel it is a beneficial if not benevolent choice of mind relaxant/opener. After several years of university schooling/pot consumption, I beleive that it is truly a matter of the quality of marijuana as to whether or not it "takes you down or up". Perhaps the fact that I even consider this means it brings you up. during SA's part it...

"Everybody wants something they control Some just want grass some they want gold Either way does it feel good or feel low Taking you down not fast but real slow"
This is another song where 311 realizes that every action has a reaction, and that we are controllers of our destinies along with "Lifes not a Race"
This is a great song. I cant wait for the new album, its going to be amazing. 311 is the best.
i agree with ate 16am, they have a few other lyrics that also give off that message "dont believe it till you see it and then see it twice" ah, i love 311 they are the coolest band around, way to come original!
First off shokker yes those are the correct lyrics.. when i started reading the sites lyrics i was like.. ummmm ok?A Teacher once told me "You have to be a conspiracy theorist with a bullsh*t detector" I think that is what this song is all about. At first they are telling you to "reconsider everything" but my favourite line of the song is "Rebellion done for its own sake/does not a true free thinker make" In other words although it is good to go against the man... make sure you are doing it for a good reason and have cause. Don't go against the government cuz its cool or your friends are doing it or cuz you read something on the internet. Know why you are doing. I think the other great line in the song is "What if the truth is that there is no truth/The only thing I can prove is there is no proof" I agree with this completely. Some people act like they know everything and that there politcal ideals are 100% and don't even listen to your viewpoint. Although I hold my viewpoints strongly I am always open and change a few of my opinions now and then because you realize you were wrong or you didn't see the other side of the story. And know that you will never know the whole truth. So always keep an open mind
This song is BITCHIN' live...mahoney on the wah...sick
Don't worry so much about what other people are doing. Follow your heart and your instincts because you know what is best for you.
