One World, One Game

Lyrics

[Intro] Hear that whistle, feel that ground Twenty-two flags, one roar now [Verse 1] From the first bus rolling, boots hit the dirt Paint on the cheek, every badge, every shirt Old hands gripping a scarf in the stands Kids with a ball and a plan in their hands From Accra to Quito, from Seoul to São Paulo One pass cuts clean and the whole world follows No easy yards, no gift, no retreat Earn every inch when the clock eats the heat [Pre-Chorus] When the whistle cuts the air Every voice is rising there One field, one chance, one name Bring that fire, bring that game [Chorus] World Cup, bring the whole crowd up Hands high, flags out, never fold up One shot, one run, one roar through the night Play for the crest, put it all on the line World Cup, hear the whole ground shake Win it with heart, every move we make From the first kick off to the final light One world, one game, one fight [Verse 2] Cleats bite grass, quick feet change lanes Keeper reads eyes while the striker takes aim A block at the post, a save at the line A city holds breath for a fraction of time No matter the language, the message comes through A shoulder-to-shoulder wall of red, gold, and blue When your legs feel heavy, let the bench bring the flame Your people are singing; go answer your name [Pre-Chorus] When the whistle cuts the air Every voice is rising there One field, one chance, one name Bring that fire, bring that game [Chorus] World Cup, bring the whole crowd up Hands high, flags out, never fold up One shot, one run, one roar through the night Play for the crest, put it all on the line World Cup, hear the whole ground shake Win it with heart, every move we make From the first kick off to the final light One world, one game, one fight [Bridge] For the ones who traveled far For the ones who watched from home For the name across your chest And the people you call your own [Final Chorus] World Cup, bring the whole crowd up Hands high, flags out, never fold up One shot, one run, one roar through the night Play for the crest, put it all on the line World Cup, hear the whole ground shake Win it with heart, every move we make From the first kick off to the final light One world, one game, one fight [Outro] One world! One game! One fight! World Cup!
