lirik lagu dear future self – lady paradox
verse 1:
dear future self, what’s happening now?
are you settled down looking happy and proud?
releasing your words to a p-ssionate crowd?
are you still anxious and rattled with doubt?
is there family ’round – did you create?
do you still have dreams to one day be great?
are people united or breathing hate?
what’s the climate like? did the seasons change?
is it an equal race – whose at the top?
is there war, anger, losing the plot?
religious individuals -ssuming your lost?
what’s the radio like – do you tune in a lot?
is the music forgot or still in your soul?
do you love the heat? dread the winter cold?
have you travelled far – seen the inca’s gold?
do you think like me or is your thinking old?
chorus:
to my future self in a distant place
just like me but her wisdom’s great
i met my future self and the rhythm played
she said appreciate and just live your days
to my future self in a distant place
just like me but her wisdom’s great
i met my future self and the rhythm played
she said appreciate and just live your days
verse 2:
dear future self, has the world progressed?
do you feel happy or are you depressed?
do you worry less or is life a stress?
are you calm, peaceful, with time to rest?
is it shining less – the sun you adore?
did you move closer- absorbed by the sh-r-s?
are there still wars – is their fighting raw?
do your looks mean less now you’re ninety-four?
are you rhyming more, observing the world?
do you love the poetry you learnt as a girl?
do you feel lost or disconnected?
is difference rejected? are people accepted?
and whose rested – whose departed?
did you say goodbye to your father?
do you wish that you tried a bit harder?
how long have you got? i’m only just getting started
chorus:
to my future self in a distant place
just like me but her wisdom’s great
i met my future self and the rhythm played
she said appreciate and just live your days
to my future self in a distant place
just like me but her wisdom’s great
i met my future self and the rhythm played
she said appreciate and just live your days
verse 3:
i stopped, she replied wisely
i saw myself as i gazed in her eyes deep
as she spoke, her words would remind me
that life moves fast and the time speeds
she said i dream of a place where
i can feel at home and be safe there
know my children are grown and their pay’s fair
know their lungs won’t groan when they taste air
and i wake scared she said slowly
the world moves fast and i’m lonely
the questions you ask kinda throw me
’cause the answers won’t help you to know me
yes my home’s sweet – i smell the ocean
yes my words still hold my emotion
yes there’s war and the winters are frozen
changes & sameness – just grasp every moment
chorus:
my future self in a distant place
just like me but her wisdom’s great
i met my future self and the rhythm played
she said appreciate and just live your days
to my future self in a distant place
just like me but her wisdom’s great
i met my future self and the rhythm played
she said appreciate and just live your days
future self in a distant place
just like me but her wisdom’s great
i met my future self and the rhythm played
she said appreciate and just live your days
to my future self in a distant place
just like me but her wisdom’s great
i met my future self and the rhythm played
she said appreciate and just live your days
