about

This song starts with a paraphrased Steven Pressfield quote: “A child has no trouble believing the unbelievable, nor does the genius or the madman. It's only you and I, with our big brains and our tiny hearts, who doubt and overthink and hesitate.” and the the tag line "It's not my business either way" is a response that is meant to convey that how people live their own lives is really none of our concern.

The second pre-chorus is an interpretation of a verse from the Qu'ran that states that "the truth will be what convinces" which on the surface, sounds like it's saying we'll all be shown the truth eventually - but in 2022 it seems a little more obvious that "whatever you're convinced of - you will believe to be true."

The song in it's entirety serves as a personal reminder that we're all on our own path and should reserve judgement for the stones in people's pathway, rather than the people who are stumbling over them.

lyrics

A child has no problem beliving in what he can't attain
It’s not my business either way
They leave that to you & I with our tiny hearts and our big brains
It’s not my business either way

Any old way you want to do any old thing you want done
Any old method you’d like to try with just about anyone
Any old reason why in any old time or place
It’s not my business either way
It’s not my business either way

I might not see you out at night when you’re tearing up the town
It’s not my business either way
That’s not really my scene… it wasn’t then and it isn’t now
It’s not my business either way

In the end the truth will be what convinces you
But that don’t mean that it will necessarily be true
When you’re firm in your convictions then the mind is hard to change
It’s not my business either way
It’s not my business either way
