[Verse 1]
Chrome trains glide
Under hanging gardens
Vines on the high-rise
Breathing over steel
I bike past towers
Dripping with sunlight
Wind in the turbines
Feels almost unreal
[Chorus]
Futuristic green city
We built a heartbeat out of leaves
Circles in the skyway
Where the birds and people weave
Futuristic green city
All this glass grown out of seed
Living in the future
That we used to only read
[Verse 2]
Sky farms glowing
On the rooftop edges
Kids trade patterns
On a tablet screen
Old man charging
At the park-side benches
Smiles when the shade
From the treetops leans
[Bridge]
Remember gray days
From the old maps
Fading
Now every sidewalk
Cracks open with green
[low vocal register]
We learned slow
We learned the hard way
[full voice]
Now every breath
Tastes bright and clean
[Chorus]
