about

ah the city. I hated this song for the longest time because I knew what it was about in my heart but my brain couldn't articulate words to describe it. We need each other. People, you me and all those watching. We need each other to accomplish greatness. That's the vibe I get when I roll into a bigger city. Especially at night. The life all around me, the possibility of greatness beyond imagination happening right now. I just can't see it with all the lights but I feel it. This song like all the others is an attribute I am working in but have yet to acire. I can tend to be a loner sometimes and get lost in my own head and feel stuck and desperate. Even though I fight it being with people reminds me I'm alive. Ya I totally feel alone time is necessary but I feel alive when I'm around people. In a city of believers, fighters healers and lovers. When I think about it I get pumped. I really do feel alive.

lyrics

Out of the way
our broadcast to isolation

Were sick of being told
Were are the generation to let it fall


Everything
Is not for nothing not unnoticed and
Everyone
Is a sacred moment
Everywhere
Is a place where we can be alive

We are alive

In this city filled with believers,fighters,healers and lovers
famously rich and the poorly undiscovered

Feel the frost in your lungs feel the spark in the air feel your heart tremble with anticipation

Behold as we raise our fists for we are the city lights that sing a song that will bring the satellites down

We are prosperity -chunk it out
We are selflessness
We are the reason
The reason this city has breath

This is not another brave distraction
This world hasn't seen a thing
Just wait till we stand together
Together as a city

World hear us
Hear this city

This is my home

We are the street signs that tell you how fast and slow (we are the Giants)high scream- with Windows row after row

My city sing this with me

These city streets light up in moments
We need everyone to make the whole thing work

We are massive city
and every road is home
even our darkest sign says
We are alive
We will not give up on them
whose city lights are low
We believe they can thrive
we are alive

This is how we beat the reaper
this is how we beat the reaper
we spark on every light
in this city

People people are what give us life give us adventure and meaning. So take part in something grand be inspired to live well for others because

we are the city
