about

This is a song about a made-up family. No, really, it is.

lyrics

Set Our Fate
(Anders/O’Bitz 2017)

We had a child
Was such good fortune
But for so long
Had to wait

Times were so hard
Heads bent low
Then on the floor once

But have our struggles gone away

Now that child
Didn’t live good fortune
Our pressured hopes
Set his fate

His times were hard
Head bent low
Below the floor once

Seems his struggles were here to stay

Had a child
He was our hope
He felt alone
That set his fate
Our haunted child
Of pressured hopes
Oh, that set his fate

They had a child
Was such good fortune
But for so long
They had to wait

I was that child
Of pressured hopes
Head on the floor once

My struggles thriving to this day

Was that child
I was their hope
But felt alone
That set my fate
A haunted child
Of pressured hopes
Oh, set my fate

Was that child
I was their hope
But felt alone
That set my fate
Then had a child
Of pressured hopes
Oh, now we know
What set our fate
