Gabo the Other - In the Year 3000 Lyrics

Was the best of times
Was the worst of times
The pillars all a-shake
And I sang no godly anthems
And I hummed no proper prayers

My Lord I have a vision
It feels so right, it's true
It fills me with decision
Prevents me from abuse
My Lord I'm making history
Though I won't live that long
Won't know if I've forsaken
What was mine all along

Was the best of times
Was the worst of times
Revolts against revolts against revolts
I revised these lines a hundred times
And my birth a million more

My Lord I have a vision
It feels so right, it's good
It fills me with derision
I'd kill you if I could
My Lord I'm making history
Though I won't live that long
Have I too been forsaken
Did I really have a choice?

Was the best of times
Was the worst of times
If only I'd live that long

Was the best of times
Was the worst of times
I hope I won't live that long
