Future
Navigating the Uncharted: Ignis Perpetua's Reflections on Future and Self
Lyrics
What will the future reserve for me?
Contemplating the unknown outcomes of the future and its implications on the speaker.
So much amplitude of choices
Reflecting on the abundance of choices and possibilities in life.
Edging the existence of my thoughts
Exploring the boundaries of the speaker's thoughts and existence.
Will I write my path
Contemplating whether the speaker has control over shaping their own destiny.
Or is the line already set?
Raising the question of predetermined fate versus personal agency in life.
Childhood dream of another
Reflecting on childhood dreams that may take unexpected and nightmarish turns.
Might become the one nightmare
Anticipating that a childhood dream might transform into a distressing nightmare.
Which haunts unbearable desires
Describing the haunting and overwhelming nature of unfulfilled desires.
Hidden in our true core
Addressing the hidden aspects of one's true self or identity.
The purpose of our growth
Contemplating the purpose and meaning of personal growth.
Beyond the horizon all that is yet to be known
Referencing the unknown future beyond the current understanding or awareness.
The time has come, it’s my turn to take full control
Expressing a sense of readiness to take control of one's destiny.
Whatever it takes,
Emphasizing the importance of determination and commitment.
What is done with the heart
Stating that actions driven by genuine emotions and passion have lasting impact.
Shall last for all eternity
Asserting that actions motivated by the heart endure for eternity.
And no reward will compensate
Highlighting that intrinsic satisfaction outweighs external rewards.
The pleasure of being yourself
Emphasizing the joy of being true to oneself as an unparalleled pleasure.
Even the certain is doubtful.
Acknowledging the uncertainty inherent even in seemingly certain situations.
A tragic fate the poet writes for himself
Describing a poet's tragic fate written by themselves.
And the string echoing harshness
Referring to the harsh echoes of a poet's words and their impact.
Draw an abstract exordium to ruin,
Depicting an abstract beginning that leads to ruin.
The cadence sustains the movement
Highlighting the persistence and rhythm in the movement of life.
While obsolete demeanors counterfeit delight
Commenting on outdated behaviors that mimic joy without genuine substance.
Future constantly turned aside
Suggesting that the future is elusive and constantly changing direction.
Will we ever be able to attain our calling?
Pondering the possibility of realizing one's true calling in life.
(I miss something that never happened to be)
Expressing a sense of loss or longing for something that never materialized.
Whatever it takes…
Reiteration of the importance of determination and commitment.
What is done with the heart

Shall last for all eternity

Will I write my path?

Hasn’t death turn’d up yet?
