Here Comes the African Rooster

Lyrics

[Intro] Kuku-ri-ku, the morning has a name A golden call across the sleeping plain [Verse 1] Before the first bus shakes the roadside dust Before the market opens its wooden doors There are hands with a vision, hearts full of trust And a dream folded deep in a drawer One woman kept plans in an old blue book One young man had songs he was scared to sing Then a little spark gave them room to look And the quiet inside began to spring [Pre-Chorus] What was waiting in the dark Found a doorway, found a start [Chorus] Here comes the African Rooster Silent Lives, Loud Dreams Waking up the dreamer with AI Now the future is closer than it seems Here comes the African Rooster Hear the whole village sing Music plays on LIVE, the world is listening And forgotten dreams grow wings [Verse 2] A tailor turns a sketch into a name A farmer tells his story from the ground A teacher finds a thousand ways to explain A maker sends new work all around No grand parade, just a door unlocked No empty promise, just a helping hand When the right tools meet the work we’ve got A small beginning becomes a stand [Pre-Chorus] What was waiting in the dark Found a doorway, found a start [Chorus] Here comes the African Rooster Silent Lives, Loud Dreams Waking up the dreamer with AI Now the future is closer than it seems Here comes the African Rooster Hear the whole village sing Music plays on LIVE, the world is listening And forgotten dreams grow wings [Bridge] Start the business, take the step Build the thing you haven’t built yet Let the music carry your name Let the morning call your flame [Choir] Wake up, wake up, dreamer [Lead] Your hour is here today [Choir] Stand up, stand up, builder [Lead] There’s a road beneath your feet [Final Chorus] Here comes the African Rooster Silent Lives, Loud Dreams Waking up the dreamer with AI Hear the hope in every beat Here comes the African Rooster Now the sleeping doors swing wide Music plays on LIVE, and the world joins in With a dream we no longer hide [Outro] Kuku-ri-ku, let the new day rise Silent lives, loud dreams beneath open skies Here comes the African Rooster Waking up the dreamer with AI
