Wonderseeker

from For Those Who Remain by Ionne

lyrics

Life
As you please
Trapped in time
Bright
Silver screen
Pay your dime
Red
Blue and green
Colorblind
Great
Fantasies
By design

I am the Wonderseeker
I am the Child of Light
The one they dared not speak of
I am the Wonderseeker
My roots run deep and wide
I'm the one they dared not speak of
My skin is brown and lovely
My flag is pink and white
I'm the one they dared not speak of
I am the Wonderseeker
I hold the key to life
I hold the key to life

Say no
I'll find another way
Say no
I'll find another way
Say no
I'll find another way
Say no
I'll find another way
There is nothing they can say
Ever take my pride away
Say no
I'll find another way

There is nothing they can say
Ever take my pride away
I can move the world

I can move the world
I can move the world
I can move the world

I am the Wonderseeker
I am the Child of Light
The one they dared not speak of
I am the Wonderseeker
My roots run deep and wide
I'm the one they dared not speak of
My head is dressed in feathers
My body's draped in gold
I'm the one they dared not speak of
I am the Wonderseeker
And I'm beyond control
Now I'm beyond control

If you counted me as worthless
Then you can't afford my price
If haven't read my story
Then you cannot judge my life
If you're looking for solutions
Or a penance for your crimes
Then you're bound to learn my nature
Is as savage as my rhymes

Now you wanna rock?
You're the one who tried to break me
Now you wanna rock?
But you're the one wound up drowning in your tears
Now you wanna rock?
You're looking for a contribution
Now you wanna rock?
The better points of view you once dismissed as queer

An angel walks among us
The polar caps are melting
An angel walks among us
And pandemics on the rise
An angel walks among us
The Amazon is burning
An angel walks among us
And we're bracing for demise

But I've got love
Enough to heal the universe
And I've got juice
Enough to keep the sky from falling down
And I've got magic
Enough to break the strongest curse
And I've got truth
Enough to know that nothing holds me down
And I've got love
Enough to take you higher
And I've got love
Enough to take you higher
I've still got love
Enough to take you higher

I am the Wonderseeker
I am the Child of Light
The one they dared not speak of
I am the Wonderseeker
My roots run deep and wide
I'm the one they dared not speak of
My fiery eyes read futures
My presence scares the bold
I'm the one they dared not speak of
I am the Wonderseeker
And I am powerful
Yeah, I am power-

I can move the world

Say no
I'll find another way
Say no
I'll find another way
Say no
I'll find another way
Say no

I can move the world
I can move the world
