[Verse 1]
Steel roots
Climbing out of old dust
Vines on the windows
Breathing for all of us
Glass towers
Dripping with the morning rain
Farm floors in the sky
Feeding every name
[Chorus]
Emerald skyline
Growing where the concrete used to burn
Emerald skyline
Every little leaf a lesson learned
We built a green machine
And gave it back a heartbeat
Emerald skyline
Hear the future under our feet
[Verse 2]
Trams glide
Over beds of wild thyme
Kids draw
On a wall of living lime
Cloud shade
On a rooftop orchard swing
You press your hand to mine
Feel the city sing
[Chorus]
