Cause & Effect - Take Offense

Keep talking sideways

You’ll get straightened out real quick

When it comes to choosing battles

Go ahead & take your pick

You’ve always had a choice

To which you’ve taken granted

The essence distorted

& tarnished by neglect

Cause & effect

Where to turn

On the straight & narrow?

There’s only forward

All courses connect

Cause & effect

What’s done is done

Time to move on

Few will understand

Most will cast a stone

Unforgiven by a system

Built on blood & bone

Cause & effect
