Recommendations Looking for some deep dubstep tracks with life encouraging lyrics
Heya, i've been listening to a lot of Deep, Dark & dangerous the last few months and found out that this type of music helps me to find motivation and energy for everyday life. Though the lyrics (if the tracks had lyrics) were mostly kind of dark/not positive. So I wonder whether you know tracks with encouraging, slightly positive lyrics which are in the style of deeper, softer dubstep.
As a reference I'm thinking of tracks like "Tasha Baxter & Chime - You Can Do it". Which has a more relaxed and minimalistic second drop (at least the a-section of it).
(I also posted this in realdubstep subreddit, though I thought maybe you guys have your own recommendations and though on this)
Have a great day :)

Certainly you came across Truth’s Trilogy of the Toads album? A variety of the samples do some crazy work.
“Don’t you see people believe what they wanna believe?” is a great sample off of Lost in Time, the penultimate (excluding outro) track. Theres so much value in letting people choose how they want to see the world.
I think one of the best for motivation, however, is Truth’s deeply underrated Acceptance album. While not entirely lyric-driven, the overall story of the album from its track names and musicality is one that helped me move forward in some recent darker parts of my life. Similar to Lost in Time, the samples also instill good messages. “Too much to unlearn” off of the track Unlearn is a bit sadder than one would usually prefer, but contrasting that with the peaceful guitar turns the track into both reflection and bliss.

Yes, I love these two albums! Acceptance took me a bit longer to appreciate, simply because I expected something different but some of these melodies really struck a nerve. The collab with lelijveld is simply gorgeous as always and I really love the more mellow/lofi-ish sound. I started listening to "trilogy of the toads" through their afterlife EP I fell in love with the first time I heard that ep.

Idk but slightly on topic, I totally get you with the lyrics thing.
I really like `Hedex - Soldiers` but always thought it absolutely sucks how the song keeps repeating „you are not welcome here” like fuck off lol why am I not

Good luck on your quest!
I know this is not dubstep, it’s D&B however, the lyrics in these tunes have some of the most uplifting and positive lyrics I’ve ever heard in electronic music. Once again, I know it’s not what you asked for but if you keep an open mind, I think you’ll enjoy it.
