MARINA Ancient Dreams in a Modern Land

Our ancestors had to fight to survive

Just so we could have a chance of a life

We're not here so we can blow it all

We could bear witness to the rise and the fall

Ancient dreams in a modern land

I'm tryna get back as fast I can

Back to a time before I had form

Back to a time before I was born

 

You don't have to be like everybody else

You don't have to fit into the norm

You are not here to conform

I am here to take a look inside myself

Recognize that I could be the eye, the eye of the storm

 

I am not my body, not my mind or my brain (Ha!)

Not my thoughts or feelings, I am not my DNA

I am the observer, I'm a witness of life (Ha!)

I live in the space between the stars and the sky (Oh!)

 

What's your purpose, why were you put on Earth?

You could be lost but you belong to the world

We're now living in a seminal age

The walls are being broken and we're ready for change

Ancient dreams in a modern land

I'm tryna get back as fast as I can

Back to a time before I had form

Back to a time before I was born

 

You don't have to be like everybody else

You don't have to fit into the norm

You are not here to conform

I am here to take a look inside myself

Recognize that I could be the eye, the eye of the storm

 

I am not my body, not my mind or my brain (Ha!)

Not my thoughts or feelings, I am not my DNA

I am the observer, I'm a witness of life (Ha!)

I live in the space between the stars and the sky (Oh!)

 

From the heart of Malaysia

To the dark Himalayas

From the day you were born

You are not here to conform

 

You don't have to be like everybody else

You don't have to fit into the norm

You are not here to conform

I am here to take a look inside myself

Recognize that I could be the eye, the eye of the storm

 

I am not my body, not my mind or my brain (Ha!)

Not my thoughts or feelings, I am not my DNA

I am the observer, I'm a witness of life (Ha!)

I live in the space between the stars and the sky (Oh!)
