Optimism Lyrics by Chris Mack

I’m A Hopeless Romantic

2019

[Verse 1]
If I ruled the world I’d try to love it with no question
Optimistic heart will make it hard to learn my lesson
Hug a racist even in the spite of indigestion
Feed a starving wild lion without second, (eh)
Jail a shooter soften his heart, for all the terror
Martyr preaching love but executed for the message
Jesus Christ the perfect sacrifice for all your errors
Error number 32767
Man I’m getting started
All of my thoughts I mean
All of my heart I mean
All of my mind and my soul
I'm drowning in all that I show
Affection is all that I know
Conducted a love song cause I am the maestro
You want to see my soul I am the light show
But it hurts, but it hurts to see
The way the people here is murkin me
It's hurting me
See I've been burned a 3rd degree
Love you but y u no love me
It’s best to see the flaw in me
An optimistic heart
Ain’t always the best heart, come to grip with the reality
I wanna love this world with all I got, but it ain’t been nothing but misery

[Chorus]
You go upstairs
(It ain’t been nothing but misery)
(Said it ain’t been nothing but misery)
And I’ll stand out here
(But you gotta love)
(Even if it means misery)
This is my speaker box for you and I I, I
This is my speaker box for you and I I, I
This is my speaker box for you and I I, I
This is my speaker box for you and I I, I

[Outro]
I hope with my life, life life
Don’t know if I’m right, right right
Let me try that again, ugh
Life, life life
Don’t know if I’m right, right right
I hope with my life, life life
Don’t know if I’m right, right right 
I hope with my life, life life
Don’t know if I’m right, right right
Ugh, my heart
