Verse 1
The streets are scarred, there's smoke up in the sky,
Too many empty promises, too many reasons why.
We see the ruins of what we used to know,
A land once full of hope, now struggling to grow.
The voices grow quieter, the doubts become loud,
Too many turned away, too many lost in the crowd.
But beneath the wreckage there's still a spark alive,
And as long as it keeps burning, we'll survive.
Pre-Chorus
How long are we gonna stay silent?
How long will we follow the shadows?
If nobody stands up for tomorrow,
We'll lose everything we know.
Chorus
This land is burned, but it's not gone,
From the ashes, a new road carries on.
We must rebuild instead of tearing down,
We can't let fear be the voice that rules this town.
Where is the country we were proud to call our own?
Where is the hope that used to shine and be shown?
Stand up, look ahead, don't let it end,
Together we can build this land again.
Verse 2
Too many walls have been raised between our lives,
Too much distrust, too many divided sides.
But change doesn't start somewhere far away,
It starts with what we choose to do today.
No one is coming to save us if we wait,
No one will rewrite tomorrow or change our fate.
The future's in our hands, the choice is ours to make,
Whether we fall apart or rise before we break.
Pre-Chorus
The clock keeps moving day by day,
Even when it feels there's no other way.
But every spark can become a flame,
If we find the courage to make a change.
Chorus
This land is burned, but it's not gone,
From the ashes, a new road carries on.
We must rebuild instead of tearing down,
We can't let fear be the voice that rules this town.
Where is the country we were proud to call our own?
Where is the hope that used to shine and be shown?
Stand up, look ahead, don't let it end,
Together we can build this land again.
Bridge
Not through hatred, not through rage alone,
But through the will to build what's been overthrown.
Not by living in yesterday's light,
But by creating a better future tonight.
Final Chorus
This land is burned, but it's not gone,
From the ashes, a new road carries on.
We must rebuild instead of tearing down,
And never let our future drown.
Where is the country we were proud to call our own?
Maybe it starts with us, right here, right now.
Stand up, move forward, don't let hope fade away,
Together we'll build a better day.
