Above us lay the burdens, below us lay the truth.
We're somewhere in the middle, and we're all discontent too.
Is someone watching over you?
Inside they know what's best for you.
Judgment's not tomorrow, its today (yes now it's here).
But no it isn't Jesus, take a look at all your peers.
They're all looking down on you.
Inside they know what's best for you...
Everybody knows what's best for you [x8]

What is the meaning behind Best For You lyrics?
When we try to interpret the meaning, Bad Religion's song 'Best for You' comprehensively captures the societal pressure and conformity as its main theme. It also conveys through the lyrics the feeling of being judged and controlled by people around you, thus questioning the very idea of whether others know what is best for you. The figurative language of being under the constant surveillance of peers and being judged by them reveals the conflict of wanting to be yourself in a situation where the others' expectations pretty much determine the way you live, your choices, and even your identity. The subject matter of the song goes from social criticism through emotional turmoil, contemplation, despair, and finally anger. The lyrics, however, are devoid of profanity, violence, sex, or drug references. The topics are appropriate for every age group as they only touch on the areas of self-examination and societal judgment without any disrespectful content. ✔️
