Lost and Found Lyrics by Malcolm Ocean

2015

I got lost, and found
That I could no longer hear my favorite sounds
And so I wandered around... singing aloud
Trying to capture all these thoughts
Trying to master all these abilities
Learning to connect all the dots
And cultivating possibilities
I got lost, and found
That all my bright colors had turned to greys and browns
As I wandered around, downtown
Looking around at all the faces
Tryna recognize the places
Their minds must be
To generate the shapes I see
Simulate them on my own features
The body is my teacher, of how they feel
Making these strangers real, to me
I got lost, and found
That I just couldn't seem to keep my feet on the ground
And so I wandered around, the clouds
Tryna find my direction
But I need a more direct connection
With my terminal goals, to
Determine which road to point my soles to
Find a reason for all my actions—
Gain some better traction
Using fusion and fission...
To align my hands with my vision...
In every life decision...
—
I found my map was not the territory
At first, this was kinda scary for me
But I know that living with uncertainty
Beats living with a false sense of security
So now the plan is to think on everything I think I know
And if it doesn’t match the world to let it go
Putting what remains into creations like this song
Reminding me that I can never be quite right only Less Wrong
So I seek out every opportunity
For creating and cultivating possibilities
Meeting with groups of people, with intersecting goals
And integrating them into an interconnected whole
The conversations get more and more and more abstract
And meta and meta-meta and just like this they go off-track
But in the end we're honing in on the world we wanna see
All intelligent beings... acting with empathy
—
I got lost, and found
I had so much to do, and so many questions how
But the wandering around... ends now
