[Silence]
[Arrangement: Bright, upbeat pop-rock with steady acoustic strumming, handclaps, saxophone solo, uplifting piano chords, and a driving, optimistic chorus]
[Intro]
Hey now
(Look around)
Stand up
(From the ground)
Say it loud
(Feel it through)
If we try
(We can do)
[Verse 1]
We’ve been stuck
(In the wait)
Drawing lines
(That hesitate)
[Refrain]
We can do
(If we choose to)
What are we waiting for
(Oh, I dunno anymore)
So, I’m asking you
(What can’t we do)
’cause it’s true
(We can do)
[Chorus]
If we step out
(Of the gray)
We might find
(Another way)
Every “no”
(Can turn to “yes”)
If we lean in
(Not second-guess)
We can build
(What we imagine)
Turn the doubt
(To what can happen)
No more stall
(No more pause)
Just the will
(And the cause)
[Verse 2]
It’s not magic
(It’s the move)
It’s the rhythm
(That we choose)
[Refrain]
We can do
(If we choose to)
What are we waiting for
(Oh, I dunno anymore)
So, I’m asking you
(What can’t we do)
’cause it’s true
(We can do)
[Bridge]
In the moment
(We decide)
To stop waiting
(To stop the slide)
[Instrumental]
[Bright guitar lead]
[Piano lift]
[Percussion build]
[Final Chorus]
We can do
(If we choose to)
What are we waiting for
(Oh, I dunno anymore)
So I’m asking you
(What can we do)
And the truth is
(We can do)
[Outro]
Step by step
(We break through)
One more try
(We can do)
Say it now
(It’s all true)
We can do
(If we want to…)
