One more from another world (is what we’ve been waiting for) To know all of the things that we should (let’s move to the Universe) We’re all new here, born yesterday With nothing to fear and not time to waste, so I keep lookin’ up I keep lookin’ up I keep lookin’ up I keep lookin’ Through all we’ve overcome (and all that’s still to be done) One voice, one people, under one sun (who shines upon everyone) Brave we must be, stand up and see The fearful can never be free So keep lookin’ up keep lookin’ up keep lookin’ up Just keep lookin’ up keep lookin’ up I keep lookin’ up keep lookin’ up keep lookin’ up So far We’re not quite sure what we are, An idea sprung from the dark, And now we reaching for the stars Search your feelings you know it to be true, There’s a light inside of you, And when you let that light shine through You brighten this world with your truth and let others know that they can too Keep lookin’ up Keep lookin’ up Keep lookin’ up Keep lookin’ up

LUSTRE 04:24
I, I’m starting to feel like this is our first Time round here Okay let’s go, take what we know Leave all the old, predispositions Let’s start anew, let’s me and you Be what we choose, free of conditions Cause I can be, I can do, Anything that I want to So write it down, and hand it out This world is ours, this is our mission I can’t stop this, I won’t drop this Not until we see some progress From stars to dust, from dust to us For us to be, for all the envy Let’s see this through, and speak the truth All that we are, all that we can be Yeah you can be, you can do Anything you put your mind to So do it all, and love yourself You are just quite, like nobody else I can’t stop this, I won’t drop this Not until we see some progress Every lover, sister, brother On this gemstone, we’re the lustre Our kingdom come, our will be done And let not one, be put asunder How strange it seems, how strange to be First comes the bang, then comes the wonder What we can be, what we can do When there’s nothing for us to argue So spread the word, around the Earth Tell him, tell her, we are the lustre Did you not know, we are the lustre I can’t stop this, I won’t drop this Not until we see some progress Every lover, sister, brother On this gemstone, we’re the lustre Rest your heart, rest your soul, And let go, and let go Have faith in it, have faith in you, It all will be just as it’s supposed to So change your mind, and change the times, Then change your locks, and change your number This is our time, yours and mine See it shine, we are the lustre

Re- 04:58
Renew, receive, review, repeat And it’s times like these that get me all askew When I’d lose it all just to find something new Get high, get low, to get lost is to be found But you must’ve been looking for me cause I don’t See nobody else around High above where we must go my love Out to the edge or lose our minds instead And return with secrets kept To reword the lives we’ve led It’s time we evolved, still bruised from the fall Renew, receive, review, repeat In all of the lives on all of the worlds inside of this Universe I had to pretend I’m this one that I am and reinvent it’s worth And I know there’s things you wish you could redo But would that not mean you would cease to be you? High above where we must go my love Out to the edge or lose our minds instead And return with secrets kept To reword the lives we’ve led It’s time we evolved, still bruised from the fall Renew, receive, review, repeat Renew, receive, reuse, repeat Renew, receive, relax, repeat Renew, receive, rejoice, repeat Renew, receive, remember, repeat High above where we must go my love Out to the edge to free our minds they said And return with secrets kept To reword the lives we’ve led It’s time we evolved, still bruised from the fall

Evolve 05:10
Oh, would you listen closely? There’s nothing better in this world Then when you share an idea And you get one back in return You see we’re all just learnin’ No of us know just what is true You can't say what’s best for me I can't say what is best for you But I can offer this up I just want to make something clear That the total sum of physical laws which govern us Led to everything that you see here If I can feel, then I can fight And since I’m real, maybe I’m right This world won’t change unless I do And if I can than so can you If I can feel, then I can fight And since I’m real, maybe I’m right All that I change, changes me too And on and on that’s what we do Evolve, Evolve, Evolve, Evolve, Evolve, Evolve, Evolve, Evolve, Evolve, Evolve, Evolve, Evolve So would you come as you are And would you come as you choose to I don’t know what it is called But it had something in mind with you Oh, do you know what I mean? I’ve got a feeling that you do You’ve got this secret we need Don’t keep us waiting up on you If you can feel, then you can fight And since you’re real, maybe you’re right This world won’t change unless you do And if you can, we all can too If you can feel, then you can fight And since you’re real, maybe you’re right All that you change, changes you too And on and on that’s what we do Evolve, Evolve, Evolve, Evolve, Evolve, Evolve, Evolve, Evolve, Evolve, Evolve, Evolve, Evolve Oh, would you listen closely? There’s nothing better in this world Then when you share an idea And you get one back in return Meanwhile we’re all just learnin’ No of us know just what is true You can't say what’s best for me I can't say what is best for you If I can feel, then I can fight And since I’m real, maybe I’m right This world won’t change unless I do And if I can than so can you If I can feel, then I can fight And since I’m real, maybe I’m right All that I change, changes me too And on and on that’s what we do Evolve, Evolve, Evolve, Evolve, Evolve, Evolve, Evolve, Evolve, Evolve, Evolve, Evolve, Evolve
