lyrics

I know we are meant for greatness
But who decides what greatness is?
Does it come from our culture?
Or does it come from within?

Cause yesterday I saw you walking down the street
With a frown on your face
I don't know what you're looking for
Will you find it in this place?

Cause I'm gonna conquer this city
Even if it kills me
I'm gonna conquer this city
Even if I die

Cause it would be so damn easy
Just to turn tail and run
But the harder and the right thing
Is to stay here in the sun and let it wash over me

Cause I see guns and I see torches
And the lines drawn in between
We need more conversations on porches
And a world less mean

Cause I'm gonna conquer this city
Even if it kills me
I'm gonna conquer this city
Even if I die

We are so close to being whole
We are so close to being whole
We are so close yet we're still so far away

Cause I'm gonna conquer this city
Even if it fuckin kills me
I'm gonna conquer this city
Even if I die
