[Intro]
A quiet dawn hums under the city lights, soft and true
We carry morning steam and quiet wheels turning too
[Verse 1]
Wake with the kettle, steam tracing a hopeful line
Small talk in the hallway, we share a breath, we share the time
Feet on pavement, steady rhythm, one step, then two
In every ordinary moment, I find a path back to you
[Pre-Chorus]
Fear whispers in the corners, but we answer with hands held high
Dreams braid with the dawn, and faith teaches us to try
[Chorus]
We rise together, in small wins we learn to stand
A chorus of neighbors lifting each other hand in hand
Hope threads through coffee steam and morning light
Together we measure progress by how we show up tonight
[Verse 2]
Dreams drift like distant stars but land in everyday grace
We share the burden, share the pace, find room for every face
Kichwa nod: Twende Juu, we climb this life as one
Fear may linger, but faith says the work is never done
[Pre-Chorus]
Slow and steady, we keep faith in the daily grind
We call it courage, we call it kind
[Chorus]
We rise together, in small wins we learn to stand
A chorus of neighbors lifting each other hand in hand
Hope threads through coffee steam and morning light
Together we measure progress by how we show up tonight
[Bridge]
If the road gets heavy, we share the load and sing
If the night grows quiet, we listen for the blooming spring
[Chorus]
We rise together, in small wins we learn to stand
A chorus of neighbors lifting each other hand in hand
Hope threads through coffee steam and morning light
Together we measure progress by how we show up tonight
[Outro]
Quiet hums fade into a vow we keep—unspoken, strong, and true
That through perseverance, we belong, me and you
