(Verse 1) * Lead Vocal Harmony (unision variation)
In the land of rising suns and golden shores,
Where dreams are born and stories soar,
Elementary schools phase out, a change in the air,
Restructuring education, with a vision so rare.
(Chorus) * Lead Vocal Triple/Quard
We're phasing out, like waves on the shore,
Moving forward, learning more and more,
From Preparatory to Grade 2, we transcend,
A brighter future, on which we depend.
(Verse 2) (*Lead Vocal Harmony Unision Variation *)
In the heart of the cities, progress shines bright,
97.5% in NCD, a beacon of light,
But in Bougainville, only 14% take the leap,
Consolidating classes, where memories keep. (Where memories keep*)
(Chorus) (* Cluster Harmonies*) (*Third above/Below*)
We're phasing out, like waves on the shore,
Moving forward, learning more and more,
From Preparatory to Grade 2, we transcend,
A brighter future, on which we depend.
(Verse 3) (*Gang Vocals*) (* Answering Phrases*)
From urban to rural, challenges we face,
Limited infrastructure, a teacher's grace,
Yet we push forward, with determination in our eyes,
For education's evolution, to reach the skies.
(Chorus) (*Cluster Harmonies*) (*Fills*)
We're phasing out, like waves on the shore,
Moving forward, learning more and more,
From Preparatory to Grade 2, we transcend,
A brighter future, on which we depend. (A brighter future)
