Verse 1

We painted our faces before the sun came up

Tied our colors to the highest thing we found

A hundred languages spilling from one cup

The same electric want, the same electric sound

We've been saving this for years, this exact moment

When the whistle cuts the air like a starting gun

Chorus

Let's go, let's go, the world is happening

Every border dissolved in ninety minutes of time

Let's go, let's go, we are all flagging

The same fist raised, the same feet off the ground, the same line

This is not a game, this is every city screaming

With one throat, one want, one roar

Verse 2

Grandmothers watching from ten thousand kitchens

Children who learned the score before their alphabet

We do not agree on almost anything

But we agree on this — we are not finished yet

The stadium holds us like a single heartbeat

Strangers gripping strangers by the arm

Chorus

Let's go, let's go, the world is happening

Every border dissolved in ninety minutes of time

Let's go, let's go, we are all flagging

The same fist raised, the same feet off the ground, the same line

This is not a game, this is every city screaming

With one throat, one want, one roar

Bridge

We will argue again tomorrow

We will go back to our separate rooms

But right now the whole planet is narrow

And we are pressed together under the same bright moon

Right now we are one enormous wanting

Right now we remember how that feels

Outro

Let's go — we are here

Let's go — we are here

All of us, all at once, right here
