The Optimist is a folk-indie concept album by shurpi, inspired by the life stories and emotional legacy of his grandfather, Aaron, as described in his personal written biography. Through warm acoustic arrangements and intimate storytelling, shurpi traces a journey across continents and generations — from wartime memories and migration to love, longing, and the stubborn hope that refuses to fade. Each track feels like a personal letter set to melody, capturing the quiet resilience of ordinary people who choose optimism despite everything. Nostalgic, vulnerable, and deeply human, The Optimist glows with the sense of home we carry inside us.

The Optimist

Text:
(Verse 1)
I carried dreams for decades, old and worn,
Felt the Earth beneath me, sometimes harsh and torn.
I’ve seen the storms, the nights, the pain,
Asked myself if I could do it all again.

Now I see your faces, innocent and bright,
Two little souls that make the darkness light.
When you laugh and say “It’s fine, Dad, we’re here”,
You wipe my doubts, you calm my fear.

(Pre-Chorus)
I asked: “Is this world too cruel, too cold for you?”
You smiled and said: “As long as we have you.”

(Chorus)
If I could choose again, I’d still bring you to this place,
With every scar, with every fall — you’d still feel my embrace.
Because love’s the light in every fight,
And you made wrong things right.
If I could choose again, I’d choose you anyway,
My children, my truth — my reason for every day.

(solo)

(Verse 2)
I’ve lost more than strength, I lost the easy way,
But your voices guide me through the darkest day.
You don’t see a cripple — you see the man inside,
With all his faults, his fears, his broken pride.

You lift me up when I can’t stand,
You hold my hand, you understand.
In your laughter I find the song,
That tells me: Here’s where I belong.

(Pre-Chorus)
I asked again: “Is this world too heavy, too wild for you?”
You said: “We don’t fear the storm — with you we stand true.”

(Chorus)
If I could choose again, I’d still bring you to this place,
With every scar, with every fall — you’d still feel my embrace.
Because love’s the light in every fight,
And you made wrong things right.
If I could choose again, I’d choose you anyway,
My children, my truth — my reason for every day.

(solo)

(Bridge)
Time moves slow, my body breaks,
But hope remains, in the smiles you make.
You built me wings when mine gave in,
With your hearts, you showed me — love always wins.

(Final Chorus — soft, emotional)
If I could choose again, I’d still bring you to this place,
You taught me grace, you saved my faith.
If I could choose again…
I’d choose you.
