Listen to I Want You To Know by Zedd

Feathers of forever shadows spark
.
Magic is gathering
I feel it all about me
And believe in it devoutly
As I proudly pledge allegiance to a cause
This isn’t all about me
And indeed it works without me
Yet I’ve ne’er felt so profoundly blessed to tender most prestigious of awards
.
All of me
Each shade and hue
Through endless nights to days anew
From blackest skies to white sands
Hand in hand to where the daisies bloom
.
So grandiose a view
Have ne’er felt so upstanding musing
For I foresee magic
Way beyond illusion
The kind that shifts the plates of evolution
(Feathers of forever shadows spark)
.
My family true
My art beats the heart of me
Each sweeping artery
Comes undone to love each one of you
(Comes undone to love each one of you)
Comes undone to love each one of you
(Comes undone to love each one of you)
We may speak but in passing
But each beat is cathartic
And I keenly believe
Not a dream perceived we need to leave uncharted
(Not a dream perceived we need to leave uncharted)
(Not a dream perceived we need to leave uncharted)
.
To be part of such a legacy
Is heavenly to nth degree
The kind of sweet extreme foreseen
Of treasury within my keep
(Treasury within my keep)
(Treasury within my keep)
Embellishing the essence of each treasured soul bequeathed
For altogether we can set forever scene
Together we can set forever scene
.
There’s a reason we were seen
Each one deemed to be unique
There is magic after all
To how one call
Performed the weave
Each of us awaited
With unseen degree of patience
To be braided into history’s repeat
For our words to grace the pages
Of a beacon for the ages
Ever deepened as we bleed the same indeed
.
My family true
All of me
Each shade and hue
Believes in you
Believes in we
Believes in all we shall achieve
Have ne’er felt such great honour
So enthused to muse tomorrow
Than I do
To be a scholar in the arts
For I know now of the light
And how to migrate in group flight
To where the feathers of forever shadows spark
.

Through endless nights to days anew
(My family true)
From blackest skies to white sands
Hand in hand to where the daisies bloom
Daisies bloom
Daisies bloom
Daisies bloom
Bloom

.
Together we can set forever scene
(Not a dream perceived we need to leave uncharted)

Believe in you
Believe in we
Believe in all we shall achieve
