Blatantly Convincing
See if this makes any sense
There're people here you can't convince
That they are wrong, and you are right
In changing minds and picking sides
They, like you are standing firm
No need to preach on lessons learned
You will surely not convince
Amongst the screams and beating chests
You can point straight to the lies
Coming from the other side
Drawing from the crowd's blank stare
Bright headlights to a dumbfounded deer
Laying out the hardened facts
Concrete walls that never crack
Not until a crisis comes
Will their eyes open up
But do you sit and save your breath
Or try your best to convince
In a world where there's a need
Blatantly convincing
