lirik lagu guante & big cats - look on my despair, ye mighty, and work!
[verse 1]
it’s a marathon, not a sprint
it’s 92 degrees in october in minnesota
they canceled that marathon yesterday
and i’ve never been a runner
but i’m trying to remember
when we say despair is for suckers
we don’t mean sadness
we don’t mean depression
we don’t mean cynicism
all that is understandable
what we mean is like the lost astronaut
who doesn’t believe in the rescue mission
so he jumps out thе airlock with no helmet
or like thе shooting guard
down by two
with five seconds in the game left
who won’t take the shot
because the odds that he misses
are greater than the odds that he makes it
and i know the verse hasn’t rhymed yet
neither has my life
it’s tension and release
the idea that the work and the pain has a payoff
whether or not we live to see it
whether or not we really believe
we run
because our feelings are real
and our feelings are not all that is real
remember, our families, our neighbors
our fists, our histories
bound up together like our future
fl!ckering just out of reach, but real
a light that isn’t bright enough to be the sun
but doesn’t need to be
if it can show us which direction to run
[chorus]
for all those who wrote the setup
knowing that they’d never hear the punchline
thank you
for all those who move toward a better world
even though our speed is only sub~light
thank you
for all those with the humility to see
inevitability is a myth
for all those
who never thought they would win
but fought anyway
until they did
thank you
