Foster the People - The Truth

Artist: Foster the People
Song: The Truth
Album: Supermodel
Year: 2014


"I have tried so hard not to be like them, I have found they don't ever say what they mean, there is a truth, there is a light if you'd follow me there, I've been searching for directions and, I'm convinced the world doesn't know what it needs, there is a hope for the hopeless, I can promise you that..."

"Yeah, well I been accosted, the jury's been partial but I won't surrender to prove to you I won't lie..."


*A WAIL: I'm tired, I'm jaded. How can people be so stupid and close-minded? It seems they have their head up in their own asses. I swear to the deity of your choice I'm trying hard not to explode and let these people get the best of me, but it is just so damn difficult. 

Now, quoting this song, where is the hope for the hopeless? Being a nice person? I'm starting to believe that it is often more regrettable being a nice one than being an asshole, at least it seems they get away with it so much easier, they are living it up, and I wouldn't know if calling them assholes if the right term, maybe they are just ignorant and dumb as can be. Leaving the knowledge aside, these people seem to be taken out of a 'rudeness house', and again, besides them being lazy and sloppy in their doings, most of them don't have a fucking clue of what manners are. I'm not saying I'm the shit at manners, but I know the basics, I arrive I say 'Hello/Good Morning', I leave I say 'Bye', if you drop something you pick it up, things like that. Those are the consequences of being raised by TV and rap music. I mean respect and common senses are dead.

They have this particular knack of ruining your day with their crappy attitude, if you don't want to come to work then don't, they arrive with this frown as if they were smelling shit. Perhaps I don't arrive there like Mr. All-Smiles, short-short-long waving at everybody, but heck, your frown is one odd and discouraging way to ruin someone's day. 

If you want in, it is a requirement, let me stress it, IT IS MAN-DA-TO-RY to be lazy, you'll have the time of your life. But this rule doesn't apply to everyone, oh no, because there are ranks and "breeds", golden girls, prima donnas, bosses and pawns. The first three can do as they please, no one will bat and eye if they are being lazy, fooling around, doing things wrong, in fact they are sometimes applauded. The last breed is the people that work their ass off, but it seems that the harder they work, the better they work, it is never enough, there is always a comment, a suggestion, the more you give, the more they want. And of course, when questioned about equal treatment, their mantra: "Don't worry about the others, worry about your performance". I guess in their little heads, they can't stand to see others being good at what they do.
