[Intro]
We rise from the dust, we rise from the flame
Ugly in name, but the heart stays the same
[Verse 1]
From Juba streets to the dusty plains
We carry stories in scars and grains
Mix of tongues, a chorus of rain
Arabic whispers, English trains
[Pre-Chorus]
Hold the drum, let the rhythm claim
Two worlds collide, but we share the name
[Chorus]
We are many faces in the same sun
Breaking the mold, we won’t run
From Khartoum to the Nile, we stand as one
Ugly or loud, we shine when we’re one
[Verse 2]
Street corner poets, colors alive
Hopes in the hash of life we survive
Arabic blesses the broken lines
English lanterns illuminate the skies
[Pre-Chorus]
Beat by beat, we weave our frame
Bridging the scars with a hopeful flame
[Chorus]
We are many faces in the same sun
Breaking the mold, we won’t run
From Khartoum to the Nile, we stand as one
Ugly or loud, we shine when we’re one
[Bridge]
Tongues mingle, but the heart stays true
Rooted in land, finding a path through
[Chorus]
We are many faces in the same sun
Breaking the mold, we won’t run
From Khartoum to the Nile, we stand as one
Ugly or loud, we shine when we’re one
[Outro]
So hear the call, every voice belongs
From the south to the east, we sing along
