[Verse 1]
Dust on our shoes, gold in our teeth
We came from the roads, now we own the street
Mamas in the shade, kids on the fence
Hands up high, that’s the evidence
Beat of the drum in the market air
Old men smile like they’ve been waiting here
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear that call
One, two, three
When you move
You move with me
From the hills
To the sea
Same heart
Same family
[Chorus]
One nation rising
One nation, we sing
One nation rising
Look at the joy we bring
(one nation rising)
(one nation rising)
[Verse 2]
Shirts in the wind, flags on the mast
We don’t live in the hurt of the past
Rice in the bowls, smoke in the sky
Whole block singing as the horns fly by
Motherland loud, let the windows shake
Every small dream that we chose to make
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear that call
One, two, three
When you move
You move with me
From the road
To the sea
Same pulse
Same victory
[Chorus]
One nation rising
One nation, we sing
One nation rising
Look at the joy we bring
(one nation rising)
(one nation rising)
[Bridge]
Talk to the drum now
Tell us who we are
Fire in the feet
Hope in the scar
If you stand with me
Then stand up tall
One love, one crowd
One sound for all
[Chorus]
One nation rising
One nation, we sing
One nation rising
Look at the joy we bring
(one nation rising)
(one nation rising)
