*Martin Luther King* "I have a dream" (reverb/echo out over 1st line)
CHORUS 1
Astronauts, singers, and artists, we had no limits
We were free, we could fly, there was no bringing us down (draw out "down" and bend pitch flat)
so just admit it (flat)
Wasn't it nice when we were
young(young)
young(young)
young(young) -ha
Wasn't it nice when we were
young(young)
young(young)
young(young) -if i could go back
*Kick x3*
VERSE 1
We were knights in shining armor, nothing in the world could stop us
We fought imaginary evils, defended those who needed us
But then we grew up, and we all turned upside-down
Our knights turned into bullies, smiles became frowns
Everyone had a mask, not wanting to seem unclean
We were taught to keep our emotions bottled, never to be seen
But when someones bottle broke, we laughed at their pain, called them weak
As if we forgot,
that everyone weeps
As more of our friends turned to drugs and alcohol
never once did we stop and look at what we had become
It was a battle to be cool, or to be the best in school
We lost sight of what we really wanted, trapped in this social whirlpool
Blindfolded, walking a thin balance beam
When did "I have a dream" turn into "I had a dream"
CHORUS 2
Astronauts, singers, and artists, we had no limits
We were free, we could fly, there was no bringing us down (Bend pitch down and draw out)
so just admit it (flat)
Wasn't it nice when we were
young(young)
young(young)
young(young) *sigh*
Wasn't it nice when we were
young(young)
young(young)
young(young) -damn
VERSE 2
We lost sight of the future, what it really all meant
What use is money and drugs, when all your happiness is spent
Less smiles, more hostility, this was not the way it was supposed to be
We are all canvases, painted with more layers of grime than a grown tree
so dirty, that even we are deceived, and believe what we see
A generation always seeking for approval from the population
Nobody can find time for a kind gesture, or true compassion
Because there's something missing in our interactions.
You cant care for others, when your being smothered by your fake cover
Everyone forgets to follow the golden rule,
What good is growing up, if we grow up to be cruel?
CHORUS 3
Astronauts, singers, and artists, we had no limits
We were free, we could fly, there was no bringing us down
so just admit it
Wasn't it nice when we were
young(young)
young(young)
young(young) -ha
Wasn't it nice when we were
young (Fade out repeating young)
