The Now

We’re standing on the shoulders
Of all who came before us
Building blocks on which we walk
That we have no control of
You can run all you want
But the fact you can’t escape
That I made you all that you are today
I am your future
I am your history
I am the now
I am your future
I am your history
I am the now
You’ll never be original
Inspiration is invisible
I’m watching from the stars above your head
Use the map I gave for guidance
While denying my existence
But I creep inside your dreams
While you’re in bed
I am your future
I am your history
I am the now
Inventing stone
Inventing sky
Inventing politics, truth, and lies
I am your future
I am your history
I am the now
I am your future
I am your history
I am the now
Inventing stone
Inventing sky
Inventing politics, truth, and lies
I am your future
I am your history
I am the now
I am your future
I am your history
I am the now
I am your future
I am your history
I am the now
