The Hollies - Courage of Your Convictions lyrics

If you know you're right when the others are wrong it's hard to sit and take it They treat you like you've lost your senses Call you troublemaker I'm not trying to cause you trouble I don't wanna fight Someone's got to stand up sometime and do what's right Just have the courage of the courage of your convictions People tell you do what's right and set and good example Sometimes right means who to hate Listen to the people I'm not trying to mess your mind up but it's plain to see People pulling from both sides it's agitating me So have the courage of the courage of your convictions People teaming up on sides hating one another Know your heart before you join a team to hurt your brother If there's a way to lead us from this like in troubled times it won't be found through blood and hate but through courageous minds Just have the courage of the courage of your convictions
