Letra

Dear future self, what's happening now?
Will you settle down looking happy and proud?
Or releasing your words to a passionate crowd?
Are you still anxious and rattled without?
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? Do the seasons change?
Is it an equal race who's at the top?
Is there war, anger, losing the plot?
Religious individuals assuming you're 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 Incas gold?
Do you think like me or is your thinking old?
To my future self in a distant place
Just like me but her wisdom's great
I met my future self at the rhythm plane
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 at the rhythm plane
She said, "Appreciate and just live your days"
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 shores?
Are there still wars? Is there fighting raw?
Do your looks mean less now you're 94?
Are you rhyming more, observing the world?
Do you love the poetry you learn as a girl?
Do you feel lost or disconnected?
Is difference rejected? Are people accepted?
And who's rested? Who's 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
To my future self in a distant place
Just like me but her wisdom's great
I met my future self at the rhythm plate
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 at the rhythm plate
She said, "Appreciate and just live your days"
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 that 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 kind of 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
Change is insane, let's just grasp every moment
My future self in a distant place
Just like me but her wisdom's great
I met my future self at the rhythm plate
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 at the rhythm plate
She said, "Appreciate and just live your days"
My future self in a distant place
Just like me but her wisdom's great
I met my future self at the rhythm plate
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 at the rhythm plate
She said, "Appreciate and just live your days"
