Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Close your eyes and think ahead five years
What do you feel inside your chest?
Does it open up with hope and dreams
Or does it tighten up with stress?
Your body knows what your mind won't say
About the future that you see
Is it warm expansion in your heart
Or cold contraction, can't breathe free?

[Chorus]
Check your body, feel the truth
Future's more than mental proof
Does it expand or does it shrink?
What you feel shows what you think
Diagnostic, automatic
Body speaks when mind goes static
Future lost or future found
Listen to your body's sound

[Verse 2]
You packed your bags and crossed the sea
Left Ukraine for a brand new start
Built a home in Canada
But does it feel like future's art?
Or just responses to today
Competent but feeling numb
Planning moves and making plans
But wonder if the future's come

[Chorus]
Check your body, feel the truth
Future's more than mental proof
Does it expand or does it shrink?
What you feel shows what you think
Diagnostic, automatic
Body speaks when mind goes static
Future lost or future found
Listen to your body's sound

[Bridge]
Raising children, learning language
Building life across the miles
These are acts of forward thinking
But do they bring you future smiles?
Sometimes planning isn't feeling
Sometimes doing isn't being
Check inside, what does it say
Is tomorrow just today?

[Chorus]
Check your body, feel the truth
Future's more than mental proof
Does it expand or does it shrink?
What you feel shows what you think
Diagnostic, automatic
Body speaks when mind goes static
Future lost or future found
Listen to your body's sound

[Outro]
When you think of years ahead
Feel your chest, feel your breath
Body wisdom tells you true
If the future lives in you
