a littany (a place to stand) - youth code lyrics

[verse 1]
there will come a day when our children’s children will have to atone for the precedent set in this day and age
this time now, where the rights and freedoms of our own bodies are governed by individuals seething with hatred in their hearts
this era where the callous ignorance of sheltered thought dictates matters
where women are objectified and denied the ability to control their own bodies
where two people in love are not able to marry and be looked upon with civility by their fellow citizens
where the gender that an individual identifies with is disregarded and chastised by people born in a body they feel satisfied in
the world we exist in denies us the right to live happily
we are continuously spoken for by voices not our own

[verse 2]
the age is upon us, where we stop mandating what rights other do with their free bodies
where we stop looking upon others as if they were just bags of discard-worthy flesh
where we stop the senseless ignorances and injustices, starting in our diets and ending in our decisions
we are above and far more comp-ssionate than the voiceless beast
we are better that to let anything exist without its decisions made for itself
the time is now
speak against cruelty in all living things
act against hatred
stare narrow-mindedness in the face without fear of consequence
we all have a limited time of existence
we must do our part to stand together and promote a world where inequalities cease to exist
we owe it to ourselves, if not the children ahead of us in our own lives
h0m-phobia, s-xism, misogyny, transphobia, racism, animal cruelty, and overall inconsideracy to life on this planet must be put to an end
