    Lyrics:
    Is this the future?
    Is this what we wanted?
    Is this the future?
    I don't think I want it
    Hard to know if things will be okay
    And I know it seems so far away
    So far away
    I thought the future
    Would be better than this
    Something 'bout hoverboards and flying cars
    Turns out the future
    Ain't nothing but glitz
    We haven't even had our first round trip to Mars
    We're walking the pave laid by a lack of closeness
    The currency game is slowly flooding the shore
    We're losing diamonds in the rough
    The local news is mostly snuff
    No wonder that it's getting tough to breathe
    Is this the future?
    Is this what we wanted?
    Is this the future?
    I don't think I want it
    Hard to know if things will be okay
    And I know it seems so far away
    So far away
    And that's not to say humanity is hopeless
    But at the end of the day, there ain't a lot of rapport
    Discovering the world is queer
    Shouldn't be a thing to fear
    After all, we're all just here to be
    Is this the future?
    Is this what we wanted?
    Is this the future?
    I don't think I want it
    Hard to know if things will be okay
    And I know it seems so far away
    So far away
    So far away

      This is like that one Japanese song where the song is so upbeat everyone (even Japanese) is dancing to it while the lyric is literally about sicide

    Hey Shad, I doubt you’ll read this, and I know this song is already months old at this point, but every time I listen to it, I get bombarded with feelings and I just wanted to get this out there.
    I used to listen to basically everything you put out back in the day. Giant fan. Way back in 7th and 8th grade, I’d walk home from school blasting Upside Down, Lay the Ink Down, Spider Dance, Dr. Gaster, Never Be Alone, you get the point. I was even there during the creation and destruction of the Shadrow discord.
    Unfortunately however, your music just kinda fell out of my rotation. I’d still happily jam out whenever one of your songs would shuffle into the music queue, but you fell out of the central focus of my music listening sessions. (I have no clue how else I’d word it) My music taste just grew, evolved, changed, you know, it happens to everyone.
    However, it was a couple months ago when Spotify’s AI powered DJ feature decided to play this song, and I felt frozen in time. I only started using Spotify last year, so all of my Shadrow-based listening habits were on Google Play/UA-cam Music.
    I just sat there, listening to this great song that I knew middle school me would have loved. (I love it now too, don’t misunderstand me) And the subject matter of the song felt like it hit so close to home, I don’t know how to describe it, but I was just so deeply invested in what I was listening to.
    As I said, I started listening to you when I was in middle school. 6th, 7th, and 8th grade. I turn 20 tomorrow, and I know that means it hasn’t even been *that* long since I stopped listening, but still, it’s been a minute. So what I’m trying to say within this college essay of a UA-cam comment is Thank you for making these bangers that basically shaped the music I listen to, and in a way shaped who I grew to become.
    (Still growing obviously…)
    I’ll definitely keep a closer eye on the stuff you put out from now on.
    Love ya, Shad ❤

    É este o futuro?
    É isso que queríamos?
    É este o futuro?
    acho que não quero
    Difícil saber se as coisas vão ficar bem
    E eu sei que parece tão longe
    Tão longe
    pensei no futuro
    Seria melhor que isso
    Algo sobre hoverboards e carros voadores
    Acontece que o futuro
    Não é nada além de brilho
    Ainda nem fizemos nossa primeira viagem de ida e volta a Marte
    Estamos caminhando pelo caminho traçado pela falta de proximidade
    O jogo da moeda está lentamente inundando a costa
    Estamos perdendo diamantes brutos
    As notícias locais são principalmente rapé
    Não é de admirar que esteja ficando difícil respirar
    É este o futuro?
    É isso que queríamos?
    É este o futuro?
    acho que não quero
    Difícil saber se as coisas vão ficar bem
    E eu sei que parece tão longe
    Tão longe
    E isso não quer dizer que a humanidade não tem esperança
    Mas no final do dia, não há muito relacionamento
    Descobrir o mundo é queer
    Não deve ser uma coisa a temer
    Afinal, estamos todos aqui apenas para ser
    É este o futuro?
    É isso que queríamos?
    É este o futuro?
    acho que não quero
    Difícil saber se as coisas vão ficar bem
    E eu sei que parece tão longe
    Tão longe
    Tão longe
