Album: Fear No More
Writer: Joshua Havens , Matt Fuqua , Jordan Mohilowski , Dan Ostebo
Welcome to the future
Welcome to the here and now
Welcome to the future
What you know, forget about
Some might call it magic
But I see supernatural
Welcome to the future
Welcome to the future
Close your eyes, take a step
Breath it out, let it in
Lose yourself, only just to find you
Holding on, let it go
Way beyond, chemical
Feeling that, I get when I run through
Billions of stars, up in the sky
The more that we know, and wonder why
Gravity calls. Plan tonight
How far can we go, and what will we find
Welcome to the future
Welcome to the here and now
Welcome to the future
What you know, forget about
Some might call it magic
But I see supernatural
Welcome to the future
Welcome to the future
Coming down, waking up
Shaking off, all the dust
There’s no way, I could ever go back
Like a dream, colorful
Everything, beautiful
Stretching out as far as I can see it
Billions of stars, up in the sky
The more that we know, and wonder why
Gravity calls. Plan tonight
How far can we go, and what will we find
Welcome to the future
Welcome to the here and now
Welcome to the future
What you know, forget about
Some might call it magic
But I see supernatural
Welcome to the future
Welcome to the future
Future, the future, the future is here
The future, the future is already here
The future, the future, the future is here
The future, the future is already here
Welcome to the future. (Welcome to the future)
Welcome to the future. (Welcome to the future)
Some might call it magic
But I see supernatural
Welcome to the future
Welcome to the future
