Song Meaning of “Uncivil Disobedience” by Trash Talk
“Uncivil Disobedience” by Trash Talk is a song about standing up and speaking out against injustice and inequality. The song suggests that while peaceful protest is important, it can sometimes be ineffective in changing oppressive systems. The narrator calls for more drastic and vehement measures in order to truly fight against those in power who are actively oppressing and marginalizing certain groups. As they state in the chorus, it is time to “go against the grain, civil disobedience isn’t enough to make the change.” The song urges people to take matters into their own hands in order to create meaningful and lasting changes in society. Through uncivil disobedience, the narrator hopes that these oppressive systems can at the very least be challenged and disrupted.
