[Verse 1]
Steel roots in the ground
Glass vines in the sky
Sun caught on the rooftop farms
Trains humming as they glide by
Kids race carbon bikes
Past walls growing herbs
Smart signs change with the wind
Reading data from the birds
[Chorus]
Future Greenstic City
Breathing with me
Concrete and clover
Wired to the trees
Future Greenstic City
Bridges bloom clean
We’re living in the middle
Of somebody’s dream
[Verse 2]
Trash turns into light
Spins slow in the air
Old smoke stacks wear solar crowns
Same brick
New repair
Clouds kiss turbine wings
Rain fills every tank
Morning rush
But the streets feel calm
As the river floods the banks
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
We grew up on rust and sirens
Thought that was the way
Now garden towers touch the thunder
Turning gray to green each day
[whispered vocals] This is how it could be
[full voice] This is how it will be
[Chorus]
