Riff: Jose Gonzalez – “What Will”

Feb 17, 2015

What will it be?/If our will is free?/Silent acceptance of the form/Vestiges and claws/Fight for a common cause

from What Will lyrics by Jose Gonzalez

Jose finally steps outside his ‘reach Nirvana’ ethos (slightly) to get to the same endpoint, but from a more confrontational, revolutionary tactic. Refusing “silent,” “lazy acceptance of the norm” is not only healthy for one’s self, but also necessary to spread to others.
