Lyrics
(Verse 1)
The borders are just lines drawn in the sand
By ghosts of kings who didn’t understand
That the soil doesn't care for the flags we fly
It only knows the rain from a shared blue sky.
We’ve traded the armor for a linen sleeve
And finally found the space to just breathe.
(Pre-Chorus)
It’s not a dream if your eyes are open wide
There’s no more shadow left for us to hide.
The walls are down, the gates are swung away
We’re standing in the brightness of the day.
(Chorus)
And oh, it takes a brave heart to love the unknown
To water the seeds that a stranger has sown.
No more whispers, no more wars in the dark
Just the steady beat of a human spark.
We’re facing the reality, wild and sweet—
Where every culture is a place to meet.
(Verse 2)
I hear your language like a brand new song
A melody I’ve needed all along.
The spices in your kitchen, the stories in your eyes
Are the missing pieces of a grander prize.
We don't look away, we don't turn to stone
In a world this beautiful, no one’s alone.
(Bridge)
Hatred is a heavy weight, a hollow crown
We’ve learned the strength it takes to lay it down.
To look at a brother, to look at a friend
And see a beginning where there used to be an end.
Courage isn't found in a fist or a blade
It's found in the peace that we’ve finally made.
(Guitar/Cello Solo - Uplifting and bright)
(Chorus)
And oh, it takes a brave heart to love the unknown
To water the seeds that a stranger has sown.
No more whispers, no more wars in the dark
Just the steady beat of a human spark.
We’re facing the reality, wild and sweet—
Where every culture is a place to meet.
(Outro)
Face the light, don't turn away.
(The world is beautiful)
Face the light, we’re here to stay.
(In every color, in every way)
One heartbeat.
One home.
Open eyes.
