Veganism Begins At Home

I'm sorry about all the dinners
I was eating without manners
And I apologise for the cream pudding
'Cos by default I was colluding

I had my gut upon my mind
I didn't mean to be unkind
I realised enslavement can never be
Cast iron ideology

To those that cannot speak, I was absent
And to know what we should know, I was dumb

Turning a blind eye's easy
When there's a ghost upon your plate
Ignorance isn't a reason
When there's an innocent life at stake
A promise I want to make
I'll love you just like I love myself

I'll love you
Just like myself
I'll love you
I'll love you just like I love myself

I'll respect your space when you're in the wild
I'll promise not to take your child
I swear I won't scald your skin
Or torture you within

For all those past mistakes, I repent
As much as I love ma life, I'll love yours

I'll gently try and make a difference
'Cos I know how hard it can be
To unpick centuries of acceptance
Driven hard by industry
Institutional butchery
I'll try my best not to take part

I'll try my best
Not to take part
I'll try my best
Not to take part
I'll try my best not to take part

And I'll love you
Just like myself
I'll love you
Yes, I'll love you
I'll love you just like I love myself
