We Are America

Verse 1

There’s a porch light burning somewhere,
While another city never sleeps.
A waitress pours that first cup of coffee,
A farmer climbs into his seat.
A father kisses his family goodbye,
A mother tucks her children in.
Different clocks, different stories—
Every day begins again.

Pre-Chorus

We don’t all walk the same road,
We don’t all see the same view.
But when tomorrow comes calling,
There’s one thing we all know is true…

Chorus

We are America!
More than red, white and blue.
Every dream that’s still believing,
Every heart that’s breaking through.
From the small-town front porches
To the skyline shining bright,
We are millions standing together…
Keeping hope alive.

We are America!
Come and take my hand.
Side by side, shoulder to shoulder,
Stronger than we ever planned.
One tomorrow,
One forever,
One story still becoming…
We are America.

Verse 2

There’s a kid out shooting baskets,
Dreaming of a bigger stage.
Someone opens up a storefront,
Turning one more hopeful page.
There’s a choir on a Sunday morning,
Friday lights beneath the sky.
Every voice adds one more verse
To this never-ending song of life.

Pre-Chorus

Different names and different faces,
Different dreams we’re reaching for.
But every generation
Leaves this country something more.

Chorus

We are America!
More than red, white and blue.
Every dream that’s still believing,
Every heart that’s breaking through.
From the small-town front porches
To the skyline shining bright,
We are millions standing together…
Keeping hope alive.

We are America!
Come and take my hand.
Side by side, shoulder to shoulder,
Stronger than we ever planned.
One tomorrow,
One forever,
One story still becoming…
We are America.

Bridge

If you listen close,
You can hear it.
In the laughter…
In the tears.
Every mile we’ve ever traveled
Brought us here.

It’s not where we’ve been—
It’s where we’re going.
Not just me…
Not just you.
Every new sunrise reminds us
There’s still so much we can do.

Final Chorus

We are America!
Raise your voices high.
Every mountain,
Every river,
Every dream beneath the sky.
When one heart keeps believing,
Another heart joins in.
That’s how every new beginning…
Has always begun.

We are America!
Sing it loud and long.
Every generation
Adds another verse to this song.
One tomorrow,
One forever,
From sea to shining sea…
We are America!
We are America!
We are America!

Outro

(Whoa-oh…)
We are America…

(Whoa-oh…)
Still rising…

(Whoa-oh…)
One people.
One promise.
One tomorrow.

We are America.
