John Reuben - Focus [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Intro]
It was different back then, anything could happen
Ideas as big as your fantasies could imagine
Children practicing, that’s part of getting older
Impatiently waiting for time to move forward

[Verse 1]
Optimistic young'ns, running on adrenaline
At the center of the universe, begging for your attention
Making a difference meant looking important
No heroes were made that day, how unfortunate
Came and went like adolescence, took our wind and left us restless
Now we want the wind that kept us alive and feeling refreshed
They said it was of the essence
To us time wasn’t precious
There it goes now try and catch it, watch it go

[Hook]
Focus, focus, don’t miss a thing
Wide eyed open, don’t miss a thing
Can you afford your ambitions?
When we arrive, we’ll start living

[Verse 2]
Wow, how awful the first time it felt impossible, and the world around me was no longer wonderful
I can’t give back your influence perspective's hard to undo, thank you for the experience
Here’s some anxiety to keep you company as you waste your energy trying to build your legacy
Tell me, what more can a man do than eat, drink, and enjoy his toil?
I want to be casual but taking it easy is too stressful
Anticipation nowadays looks a lot more like anxious
Time killed away our imaginations
We used to escape into fantasies and fairytales, now we medicate
How do you feel?

[Hook x2]
