about

Written by Elise Walsh, arranged by Hugh Barrett

lyrics

What is wrong with seeking the truth?
What is wrong with pointing out injustice?
Look at how we’ve gone back in time
We’ve become a country with narrow views
Gotta’ right the wrongs of the past
Gotta’ challenge the status quo

What’s the point of livin’ in the river denial
or livin’ in a sea of apathy
What’s the point of letting fear rules us
With all the talk of borders and security
Why not bring out the best in us
Come on let us speak for humanity

Make this the city of yes
Not the city of no
Don’t wanna’ hear no, don’t wanna’ hear no
Want to hear yes, yes, yes, yes
Nerves are strained in the city of no
Want to shine in the city of yes

Make this the city of yes
Not the city of no
Don’t wanna’ hear no, don’t wanna’ hear no
Want to hear yes, yes, yes, yes
Nerves are strained in the city of no
Want to shine in the city of yes

Nerves are strained in the city of no
Want to shine in the city of yes
Nerves are strained in the city of no
Want to shine
