React, Respond Lyrics

I see you worried and hurried
As if addressing the jury
Oh, you are innocent 'til proven innocent
You are hurting and it's so magnificent

Don't let the sky hook beat you to submission
Maybe it's the price of, price of our admission
Ain't no fucking roses to our condition
Turn this anger into nuclear fission, yeah, baby, baby

Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Don't react, respond
Don't react, respond
When what you get is what you don't want
Don't react, respond

Are we at war with each other?
Are you at war with yourself?
We could be fighting together
'Stead of fighting ourselves

Start the rebuttal
All part of the game
Yes, what makes us different
And what makes us the same

All the incandescence that is your essence
The unexpected embrace, embrace the unexpected
There's no book on this life, there's no use as directed
The best part I know was when we were connected

Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Don't react, respond
Don't react, respond
When what you get is what you don't want
Don't react

As the light gets brighter as it grows
The darkness it recedes
It's better to give, give than to deceive
Questions dissolve the more you believe, yeah

Don't react, respond
Don't react, respond
When you get what you don't want
Don't react, respond

Don't react, respond
Don't react, respond
When you get what you don't want
Don't react, respond
