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 fun
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
Recognise that I could be the eye
The eye of the storm

I am not my body, not my mind or my brain
Not my thoughts or feelings, I am not my DNA
I am the observer, I'm the witness of life
I live in the space between the stars and the sky

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 have been broken and we're ready for change
Ancient dreams in a modern land
I'm tryna get back as fast I can
Back to a time before I had fun
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
Recognise that I could be the eye
The eye of the storm

I am not my body, not my mind or my brain
Not my thoughts or feelings, I am not my DNA
I am the observer, I'm the witness of life
I live in the space between the stars and the sky

From the heart of Malaysia
To the top of Himalayas
From the day we're 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
Recognise that I could be the eye
The eye of the storm

I am not my body, not my mind or my brain
Not my thoughts or feelings, I am not my DNA
I am the observer, I'm the witness of life
I live in the space between the stars and the sky
