Truisms lyrics
by Frank Ocean
ABUSE OF POWER COMES AS NO SURPRISE
ACTION CAUSES MORE TROUBLE THAN THOUGHT
ALL THINGS ARE DELICATELY INTERCONNECTED
AN ELITE IS INEVITABLE
ANY SURPLUS IS IMMORAL
AWFUL PUNISHMENT AWAITS REALLY BAD PEOPLE
BEING HAPPY IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN ANYTHING ELSE
BOREDOM MAKES YOU DO CRAZY THINGS
CHANGE IS VALUABLE WHEN THE OPPRESSED BECOME TYRANTS
CHILDREN ARE THE CRUELEST OF ALL
CHILDREN ARE THE HOPE OF THE FUTURE
CONFUSING YOURSELF IS A WAY TO STAY HONEST
IF YOU LIVE SIMPLY THERE IS NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT
INHERITANCE MUST BE ABOLISHED
IT IS MAN'S FATE TO OUTSMART HIMSELF
IT'S BETTER TO BE NAIVE THAN JADED
IT'S CRUCIAL TO HAVE AN ACTIVE FANTASY LIFE
JUST BELIEVING SOMETHING CAN MAKE IT HAPPEN
LACK OF CHARISMA CAN BE FATAL
MONEY CREATES TASTE
MOTHERS SHOULDN'T MAKE TOO MANY SACRIFICES
MURDER HAS ITS SEXUAL SIDE
NOTHING UPSETS THE BALANCE OF GOOD AND EVIL
PEOPLE ARE BORING UNLESS THEY ARE EXTREMISTS
PEOPLE WHO GO CRAZY ARE TOO SENSITIVE
PRIVATE PROPERTY CREATED CRIME
PUSH YOURSELF TO THE LIMIT AS OFTEN AS POSSIBLE
RAISE BOYS AND GIRLS THE SAME WAY
RANDOM MATING IS GOOD FOR DEBUNKING SEX MYTHS
ROMANTIC LOVE WAS INVENTED TO MANIPULATE WOMEN
SACRIFICING YOURSELF FOR A BAD CAUSE IS NOT A MORAL ACT
SALVATION CAN'T BE BOUGHT AND SOLD
SELFISHNESS IS THE MOST BASIC MOTIVATION
SELFLESSNESS IS THE HIGHEST ACHIEVEMENT
SLIPPING INTO MADNESS IS GOOD FOR THE SAKE OF COMPARISON
SLOPPY THINKING GETS WORSE OVER TIME
SOMETIMES SCIENCE ADVANCES FASTER THAN IT SHOULD
THE MORE YOU KNOW THE BETTER OFF YOU ARE
THE WORLD OPERATES ACCORDING TO DISCOVERABLE LAWS
THERE ARE TOO FEW IMMUTABLE TRUTHS TODAY
THERE'S NOTHING EXCEPT WHAT YOU SENSE
TIMIDITY IS LAUGHABLE
TORTURE IS BARBARIC
TRUE FREEDOM IS FRIGHTFUL
USING FORCE TO STOP FORCE IS ABSURD
WISHING THINGS AWAY IS NOT EFFECTIVE
YOU ARE GUILELESS IN YOUR DREAMS
YOU ARE THE PAST PRESENT AND FUTURE
YOU OWE THE WORLD NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND
YOUR ACTIONS ARE POINTLESS IF NO ONE NOTICES
