Rich Chambers - All I Want Is Hope and Nothing More (Official Music Video)

Описание: When I wrote "All I Want Is Hope and Nothing More" I was in the middle of a deep dive into the Romantic poets of the early 19th century. Their search inward for the meaning and purpose of the self really resonated with me. Coupling this theme with what I feel is a desperately driven musical canvas, I like to think I created a 21st century message of hope and salvation. Hope can be a pretty darn powerfully positive thing, but it can also be detrimentally crippling if we shun pragmatism and let it slip away from reality and that which is possible. It's up to each of us to decide how we interpret and tap into hope's power. --RC

Lyrics:
I feel my whole life turning on a field of restless burning desire
I’m on fire
Those sleepless nights I’m dreaming I drift in and out of a burnt out mind
What do I find?
I don’t really care what Wordsworth said
But Tintern is a lonely scape I dread

Yesterday may be all that I know
Tomorrow is a dream of something more
I don’t know what to say
I fight with every day
All I want is hope and nothing more

I feel so tired and wasted all torn and knotted up inside
I try to hide
But still my heart keeps pounding and I never really seem to know why
I lose time
I don’t really care what Coleridge said
But I fear I shot the albatross dead

Yesterday may be all that I know
Tomorrow is a dream of something more
I don’t know what to say
I fight with every day
All I want is hope and nothing more

I don’t really care what Byron said
But Manfred’s is a path I dare to tread

Yesterday may be more than what I know
Tomorrow is a dream I won’t let go
I throw my heart away
And scream out every day
All I want is hope and nothing more

🎸 Turn it up.
🧠 Listen closely.
🔥 Rock on.
