Текст песни Stand Up Straight With Your Shoulders Back - Akira The Don feat. Jordan Peterson
The
first
chapter
I
have
in
my
book
Is
called
"stand
up
straight
with
your
shoulders
back"
And
it's
an
injunction
to
be
combative
Not
least
to
further
your
career,
let's
say
But
also,
to
adopt
a
stance
of
ready
engagement
with
the
world
And
to
reflect
that
in
your
posture
I
kind
of
have
an
affinity
for
lobsters
When
a
lobster
loses
a
fight,
it
kind
of
crunches
down
So
he
looks
smaller
When
he
wins
the
fight,
he
stretches
out,
looks
bigger
And
so
he's
signaling
to
other
lobsters
The
tally
of
his
victory
So,
you
think
well
so
what
The
lobster
runs
on
serotonin,
a
neurochemical
And
if
the
lobster
loses
the
serotonin
levels
go
down
And
if
he
wins
the
serotonin
levels
go
up
And
when
the
serotonin
levels
go
up
He
stretches
out
And
he's
a
confident
lobster
And
one
of
the
consequences
of
that
is
if
a
lobster
loses
a
battle
And
you
give
him
the
equivalent
of
antidepressant
Then
he
stretches
out
and
he'll
go
fight
again
Stand
up
straight,
stand
up
straight,
stand
up
straight
With
your
shoulders
back
Stand
up
straight,
stand
up
straight,
stand
up
straight
With
your
shoulders
back
Stand
up
straight,
stand
up
straight,
stand
up
straight
Stan-stand
up
straight,
stand
up
straight,
stand
up
straight,
stand
up
straight
With
your
shoulders
back
So,
anti-depressants
work
on
lobsters
And
you
think
"Well,
who
cares?"
It's
like,
no-no-no,
you
don't
get
it
We
diverged
from
lobsters
from
an
evolutionary
perspective
350
million
years
ago
And
it's
the
same
circuit
It's
absolutely
unbelievable
And
that
shows
you
how
deep
inside
you,
how
basic,
how
primordial
that
circuit
is
in
you
That's
sizing
other
people
up
And
looking
at
where
they
fit
in
the
hierarchy
The
idea
of
the
hierarchy
is
at
least
350
million
years
old
And
so,
I
read
that
and
I
think,
well
So
much
for
the
idea
that
human
hierarchies
are
a
socio-cultural
construct
It's
like
no,
that's
wrong
It's
not
just
a
little
bit
wrong,
it's
unbelievably
wrong
It's
mindbogglingly
wrong
Lobsters
have
hierarchies
That's
a
third
of
a
billion
years
ago
Okay,
that's
not
a
social
construction
It's
part
of
being
itself
And
if
you
only
see
a
hierarchy
as
power,
and
tyranny
Then
you're
looking
at
the
world
wrong
Stand
up
straight,
stand
up
straight,
stand
up
straight
With
your
shoulders
back
Stand
up
straight,
stand
up
straight,
stand
up
straight
With
your
shoulders
back
Stand
up
straight,
stand
up
straight,
stand
up
straight
Stan-stand
up
straight,
stand
up
straight,
stand
up
straight,
stand
up
straight
With
your
shoulders
back
So,
this
basically
says
I'm
open
to
the
world
But
what
it
also
says
is
I
can
handle
being
open
to
the
world
So,
it
signifies
competence
and
confidence
The
deepest
Christian
idea
is
that
You
should
accept
the
vulnerability
of
being
That's
the
acceptance
of
the
crucifixion
You're
at
the
X
where
all
the
suffering
takes
place
You're
going
to
whine
about
that?
You
know,
and
get
resentful
and
bitter
about
it
Or
you
gonna
say
bring
it
on
I
can
handle
it,
no
matter
what
it
is
And
the
idea
is
that
if
you
can
do
that
you
will
transcend
the
tragedy
And
it's
like,
well,
could
that
be
true?
Well,
we
admire
the
courageous
So
well,
how
courageous
can
you
get?
That's
the
question
How
courageous
can
you
get?
Well,
you
practice
Stand
up
straight,
stand
up
straight,
stand
up
straight
With
your
shoulders
back
Stand
up
straight,
stand
up
straight,
stand
up
straight
With
your
shoulders
back
Stand
up
straight,
stand
up
straight,
stand
up
straight
Stan-stand
up
straight,
stand
up
straight,
stand
up
straight,
stand
up
straight
With
your
shoulders
back
You
want
to
present
yourself
to
the
world
in
a
manner
That-that
doesn't
disgrace
you
in
some
sense
You
don't
want
to
disgrace
yourself
Because
the
consequence
of
disgrace
is
emotional
dysregulation
More
pain,
less
positive
emotion
And
so,
the
best
way
to
present
yourself
is
to
stand
up,
forthrightly
And
to
stretch
out,
you
know,
and
to
occupy
some
space
If
you
straighten
up,
and
you
present
yourself
in
that
manner
then
Other
people
are
more
likely
to
take
you
seriously
And
that
means
they'll
start
treating
as
if
you're
a
number
one
lobster
Instead
of
a
number
ten
lobster
Because
one
of
the
general
rules
of
thumb
about
how
to
be
successful
Is
to
confront
things
that
frighten
you
forthrightly
and
with
courage
And
that's
kind
of
a
universal
strategy
for
success
And
so
that's
what
the
first
chapter
is
about
