optimistic and wrong - akira the don lyrics

well, the argument for the simulation
i think, is quite strong
because if you assume
any improvements
at all over time
any improvement
1%, 01%
just extend the timeframe
make it a thousand years
a million years
the universe is 138 billion years old
civilization, if you’re very generous
civilization is maybe seven or 8,000 years old
if you count it from the first writing
this is nothing
this is nothing
if you assume
any rate of improvements at all
then games will be
indistinguishablе from reality
or civilization will end
one of thosе two things will occur
anyway, i don’t wanna sound like
things are too dark
’cause i think like
you kind of have to
be optimistic about the future
there’s no point in being pessimistic
it’s just too negative
it doesn’t help
you know
i think you would want to be
my theory is like you’d rather be
optimistic
[chorus]
i’d rather be optimistic and wrong
than pessimistic and right
than pessimistic and right
than pessimistic and right
i’d rather be optimistic and wrong
than pessimistic and right
than pessimistic and right
than pessimistic and right

at least we were on that side
’cause if you’re pessimistic
you’ll still feel miserable
enjoy the journey
enjoy the journey
and ultimately, you know
even if we just sort of existed
as humans forever
eventually that’d be
like the heat depth of the universe
a gazillion years from now
eventually it’s gonna end
it’s just the question of when
’cause it really is all about the journey
the universe, as we know it will dissipate
into a fine mist
cold nothingness, eventually
so i think it’s really about
how can we make it last longer
[chorus]
i’d rather be optimistic and wrong
than pessimistic and right
than pessimistic and right
than pessimistic and right
i’d rather be optimistic and wrong
than pessimistic and right
than pessimistic and right
than pessimistic and right

[chorus]
i’d rather be optimistic and wrong
than pessimistic and right
than pessimistic and right
than pessimistic and right
i’d rather be optimistic and wrong
than pessimistic and right
than pessimistic and right
than pessimistic and right

i think most likely
this is just about probability
there are
many, many simulations
simulations are
you might as well call them reality
or you could call them multiverse
and they’re running on the substrate
that substrate is probably boring
when we create a simulation
like a game or a movie
it’s a distillation of what’s interesting
about life
it takes a year to shoot an action movie
and then that’s all distilled down
into two or three hours
so lemme tell you
if you’ve seen an action movie being filmed
it’s freaking, it’s boring
super boring
takes lots of takes
everything’s in a green screen
looks pretty goofy
doesn’t look cool
but once you add the cgi
and have great editing
it’s amazing
so i think most likely
if we’re a simulation
it’s really boring outside the simulation
’cause why would you make
a simulation that’s boring?
you make a simulation
way more interesting
than base reality
when you’re in that virtual reality
which is only gonna get better
where are you?
where are you, really?
you aren’t anywhere
we’re in the computer
why do you think you’re
where you are right now?
you might not be
right now, you think you’re in a studio in la
you might be in a computer
[chorus]
i’d rather be optimistic and wrong
than pessimistic and right
than pessimistic and right
than pessimistic and right
i’d rather be optimistic and wrong
than pessimistic and right
than pessimistic and right
than pessimistic and right
