About
In The Name Of What is an Against Me! song that appears on both their first (Against Me!) and second (Vivada Vis!) demo tapes.
The song is noticably different on both tapes, the Vivada Vis! version includes an entire verse not on the original, and the tempo is quite different in both.
In the Name of What Lyrics
[Intro]
Here nothing grows. Here nothing lives
Do you dream of the future or do you live in the past?
Are you out for humanity or a gender, race, or class?
Are you diligently fighting with the movement, or fighting the blind cause?
[Verse 1]
If you were given freedom would that be an end?
If you were given the means would you use them to your benefit?
Could you survive in this world without your fucking technology?
Your conveniences that have cowardly carved a brilliant way of life, dependent on oppression of the way of nature. Pollute the environment for a cheap fix of flexing useless capabilities
[Chorus]
All in the name of what? Our arrogance, this need for dominance
Well I am not so blind
[Verse 2]
Despite our belief we are not the greatest species in existence
We are not the missing link, this is not advancement, the turth remains the same
As we push forward searching for our destiny, which we know damn well is death
I sing a song in desperation for the dying, those who could all be helped so easily
Those who fill your fucking plate
[Chorus]
All in the name of what? Our arrogance, this need for dominance
Well I am not so blind
