Lyrics

Future People

Some want to see
Those who've gone above
Friends that they've lost
People they love
I'd rather meet
The me down the road
To lead me through the fog
Wouldn't ask for more
Children
Take or leave it
Come, people
You got to give a little, get a little
And see it
Like future you, people
Some things could be
Seen from above
Thread of design
Don't trip me up
Children
Take or leave it
Come, people
You got to give a little, get a little
And see it
Like future you, people
Listen to teacher
Imagine the sound
And listen loud
And then you'll reach that top
