Time Capsule
Steve Aoki Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Watching as empires come and go
Legacy's being built and destroyed, built and destroyed
And built again
The further transcendes time, is to find purpose
To create, illuminate beyond dimensions, beyond boundaries
And see what we cannot see, explore the unexplored
To forge this new future, our neon future
Neon future

Travel through a millennium histories like a time capsule
Embark on a journey through the passage of time, experiencing the stories and events of a thousand years.
Watching as empires come and go
Observing the rise and fall of powerful empires and kingdoms over time.
Legacy's being built and destroyed, built and destroyed
Witnessing the establishment and destruction of legacies, repeatedly created and demolished.

Neon future
The hope and optimism for a bright, exciting future full of possibilities and potential.

When you played it at Athens, though my friend and I were like DEAD fro being the whole day there, waiting for like 11 hours (yeah we got earlier there), you freaking managed to make us start jumping and dancing like there was no tomorrow.
