[Intro]
We rise with the dawn, hand in hand, we stand tall
A chorus of blocks in the heartbeat of our hall
[Verse 1]
In this cradle of grit, where trains hum and speak,
A young dreamer learns strength from the weathered street
Mama’s prayers like anchors, daddy’s hands smooth the scars,
We carry the light of a village that’s learned to spar.
[Pre-Chorus]
We’ve learned to bend without breaking, bend but not fall,
Hope seeds in the cracks, we answer the call.
[Chorus]
This is our neighborhood, fierce and kind, unshaken,
We rise from the dust, with every step we’re taken.
Pride in every nod, resilience in our voice,
Young and bold, we choose the future with choice.
[Verse 2]
The corners hum with stories of struggle and grace,
But in every doorway, a future finds its place.
A child stands tall, despite the wind and the rain,
Learning that power is heart, not just gain.
[Pre-Chorus]
We’ve learned to bend without breaking, bend but not fall,
Hope seeds in the cracks, we answer the call.
[Chorus]
This is our neighborhood, fierce and kind, unshaken,
We rise from the dust, with every step we’re taken.
Pride in every nod, resilience in our voice,
Young and bold, we choose the future with choice.
[Bridge]
Hands join the circle, hands lift one dream,
Voices braid together in a steady stream.
From broken streets to brighter skies we steer,
Together we rise, together we steer.
[Chorus]
This is our neighborhood, fierce and kind, unshaken,
We rise from the dust, with every step we’re taken.
Pride in every nod, resilience in our voice,
Young and bold, we choose the future with choice.
[Outro]
We carry the flame where the river meets the road,
Strength in our steps and hope in our load.
We are the proof that a village can glow,
Youskas mwana—power in every soul.
