Cover art for Obstructed View lyrics by Rise Against

I think it's just about the group of people who stray from the pack and see obvious flaws in the world we're living in. Instead of just following the person infront of us and being content with how everything is, they take strides to really make a change.

"To all you people standing proud, thinking you know what I’m about, I think you can fuck yourself"

People can sometimes label the people this song represents as just trying to be "trouble makers," or trying too hard to be different. This is to let them all know how serious they are in their stand.

"I slipped, I fell, then I lost everything My hope, my faith, in what the future brings In hopes of pushing past the tie that brings us down We sing together now. "

It's not easy to choose this path, and there will be times when you do fall and lose your faith, but "we sing together now" and keep the crusade going.

That's what I think, anyways.
