Hope by Matt Currie Lyrics
(I just wanna feel hope)
I've been on this journey I've been traveling this road, I've been tackling the concious, and I'm learning how to grow
(I just wanna feel hope X2)
I know that money is a catalyst for things, I'm forever underwhelmed by the happiness it brings
(I just wanna feel hope X2)
I hope your time's spent well in this world fall in love find the girl, find the guy, find yourself, find your worth, find your wealth, feel the hurt, feel the highs, never be afraid to ask for help
I was raised in a country that taught me how to be selfish, to look down on the poor and envy the wealthiest, I was raised by a family, that taught me love is universal, so I took the deeper meaning, ignoring any feelings above the surface
I've met so many people that feel the same, the aim is not to gain advantage, but advance the wellbeing of our race
We need a dream that we can chase, so we forever chase tomorrow, when tomorrow never comes you lose another day to sorrow
Maybe try to live the present moment, escape all your thoughts 'coz they will take away your freedom, create self inflicted torture, so here's my open letter...
To my future son or daughter...
I'm sorry for the way we left the planet but you have to understand that we inherited it damaged
I'm sorry you're no longer European, I'm sorry we didn't vote in elections although agreeing the whole system we were under was fundamentally being corrupted by fear mongering mumbling human beings
I'm sorry we let them fool your grandparents into believing that people from different countries don't deserve the same freedoms
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry
(Breath)
My precious son or daughter
Your love is the example we can follow, be progressive, don't be scare of authority never borrow opinions... Make your own from the information you swallow, we'll facilitate your freedom, build a future we can honour
Your compassion is a rose amount the thorns, your optimism is the hope that I adore
Such hope was in our hands, now it is in yours, the same glimmer in your eyes, feel the passion when you talk, don't let history repeat, be objective with your thoughts, work for multicultural peace, pen is mightier than sword
Learn to love each other more, learn to utilise technology, A.I built for war will, only grow your enemies, A.I built to help will, potentially set many free, connection with your fellow creature sharing blissful entropy, enter conscious states and then challenge yourself mentally, be mindful of your limits, you're the smallest piece of energy in infinite space
Don't waste time in material escape, think about your life, all the things that you will chase, you will never find peace if it's something to obtain, all those who search peace have been cursed with a human brain
Long for change, state your name, say with pride, I will fight for democracy, equality and human rights, your parents are fed up of picking sides, we want a society that thrives, improving lives
You and I, the old and young need to galvanise, look what we can do when we connect and let the power rise
LGBT, a flag we're proud to fly!
The 1% greedy can no longer, hide
Mental illness a pandemic on the rise but, so is our awareness of the conscious mind
Benign lies are punished, majority are shaming hate crimes, peace is spreading quicker than terrorism can brake binds, revolution for betterments bigger than your state lines, stay wise, think global, act local, brave triumph
Awaits the awake, awoken in your own time, love, we will stop your hope shine
With all the love in the world combined
