Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Passport photo, shaky grin

Tiny flag on my suitcase zip

Mom keeps crying on the phone

Says, "Sing it like you never did"

Big stage buzzing in my chest

Glitter stuck to my heartbeat

All those nights in my old room

Now the world is at my feet

[Pre-Chorus]

They said we’re too small, too quiet

Never gonna make that riot

But look at all these colors in the dark

Every doubt turns into a spark (hey!)

[Chorus]

This is our first time on the map

Hear my people screaming back

From a dot they never see

To the name they can't forget

Hold that trophy to the sky

Feel a million voices rise

We were always more than that

Now the world is singing our flag

[Verse 2]

Green room laughs and shaky hands

Scoreboard climbing, can't look straight

Every twelve feels like a shock

Every four, we hold our breath and wait

Camera finds my crying face

I can taste my hometown streets

Grandma dancing in her chair

Through a thousand living room screens

[Pre-Chorus]

They said we’re too small, too quiet

We would never start a riot

But listen how the silence disappears

All our hopes are echoing here (woah)

[Chorus]

This is our first time on the map

Hear my people screaming back

From a dot they never see

To the name they can't forget

Hold that trophy to the sky

Feel a million voices rise

We were always more than that

Now the world is singing our flag

[Bridge]

I see my schoolyard, faded chalk

I see my friends who said I'd flop

Every "maybe" every "not"

Turned into this golden shot

We’re on the screen in every bar

Every kitchen, every car

I’m just one kid with one big song

But tonight we all belong (hey!)

[Chorus]

This is our first time on the map

Hear my people screaming back

From a dot they never see

To the name they can't forget

Hold that trophy to the sky

Feel a million voices rise

We were always more than that

Now the world is singing our flag

[Chorus]

This is our first time on the map

Hearts in rhythm, heart attacks

From a dream we barely dared

To a moment that we share

Hold that trophy to the sky

Let our colors paint the night

We were always more than that

Now the world is singing our flag
