about

This song is about my fears and hopes for the future, fatherhood, and the world we leave for our children.

lyrics

Little one, I cannot indulge you
While my own livlihood's at stake
Little baby, a starving artist
Does not a good father make

How can we fight, when we've abandoned our foresight
For our home, for our future
And for the next generation
Look for the light, 'cause in this world we sacrificed
We're alone
Seeking hope for the next generation

Little one, I could never promise
The earth won't crumble beneath your feet
Little baby, sold for profit
This world not meant for you and me

How can we fight, when we've abandoned our foresight
For our home, for our future
And for the next generation
I would have liked, I would have liked to have a son
But I don't know
If there's any hope for the next generation

One thing is true, impassioned youth
Our hope
Our hope it lies with you
