"This is Our Seatle..."
[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Neon reflects off rain-slicked streets
While ferries cut through morning mist
Coffee steam rising like prayers
To a steel and glass sky
We are the children of the Sound
Born between mountains and waves
[Chorus: layered vocals]
We rise like the Space Needle piercing clouds
Breaking through the grey
Lightning in our veins, thunder in our hearts
This is our day (This is our way)
[Verse 2]
Pike Place echoes with ancient voices
Market stalls overflow with stories untold
Beneath the underground city
Secrets sleep in stone
While seaplanes paint silver trails
Across pewter skies
[Chorus: layered vocals]
We rise like the Space Needle piercing clouds
Breaking through the grey
Lightning in our veins, thunder in our hearts
This is our day (This is our way)
This is our Seattle
[Bridge]
From Mount Rainier to Olympic peaks
Giants watching over everything we've built
Every raindrop carries promises
Every wave brings change (We are the change)
[Verse 3]
Homeless dreams under viaducts
Mix with startup millions in glass towers
But we're all drinking from the same cup
All breathing this misty air
While evergreens stand sentinel
Over concrete prayers
[Verse 4]
Tech empires rise from lumber yards
Grunge ghosts haunt Pioneer Square
We're building futures in coffee shops
Coding dreams in rain
The city never stops evolving
Neither do we
[Chorus: layered vocals]
We rise like the Space Needle piercing clouds
Breaking through the grey
Lightning in our veins, thunder in our hearts
This is our day (This is our way)
[Outro: layered vocals]
Rain keeps falling (We keep rising)
Rain keeps falling (We keep rising)
Rain keeps falling
And we keep rising!
[Final Chorus: layered vocals]
We rise like the Space Needle piercing clouds
Breaking through the grey
Lightning in our veins, thunder in our hearts
This is our day (This is our way)
This is our Seattle (This is our hometown)
[Outro: layered vocals]
Rain keeps falling...
...We keep rising
Rain keeps falling...
...We keep rising
[Instrumental Outro]
