Judgement
Brutal Truth Lyrics

The song "Judgement" by Brutal Truth is a scathing critique of the societal norms and structures that suppress individuality and force conformity. The first verse begins with the singer expressing how they have been "Hated... time and time again". This suggests that the singer has been marginalized and oppressed by society because of their differences. The second line, "Force fed, suppress senseless fear of difference" highlights how society often forces people to hide their true selves out of fear of persecution.

The second verse further emphasizes the suppression of individuality with the line, "True self suppression, hollow dreams of misery". The line speaks to the idea that when people are forced to hide their true selves, they become hollow and miserable because they are not able to express themselves fully. The chorus, "Blind wish to see, Indifference to be" suggests that while many people may wish for more freedom and individuality, the rest of society is content with maintaining the status quo.

The third verse focuses on the corrupt systems and institutions that reinforce the suppression of individuality. The line, "Corrupt in the system, Laws bent to other needs" highlights how those in power manipulate the law to maintain their hold on society. The line "God fearing idiocy, ignore just pleas" suggests that religious doctrines are often used to justify oppressive practices. The song concludes with the lines, "Idiosyncrasy, Ruling powers be, Idiosyncrasy, Never really free" which suggests that even though many may wish for individuality and freedom, the powers that be will always ensure their suppression.
