Silent Lives, Loud Dreams

Lyrics

[Intro] Ah-oo, ah-oo—rise up, rise up The morning has a story to tell [Verse 1] In a quiet room where the curtains barely move A little blue light carries somebody’s truth No crowd at the door, no hands in the air But a song is alive like a prayer in the chair The hands may rest, but the heart still knows A seed can sleep underneath the snow Then a gentle spark finds the words inside And a forgotten dream opens both eyes [Pre-Chorus] Who said silence means the fire is gone? Listen close, a new day’s coming on [Chorus] Here comes the African Rooster Silent Lives, Loud Dreams Waking up the dreamer with AI Let the hidden song rise Let the tired heart sing Silent Lives, Loud Dreams Waking up the dreamer with AI [Verse 2] Mama kept a melody folded in a drawer Brother wrote a vision but he feared the door Sister had a picture no one stopped to see Now the room becomes a window, and the window becomes free No need for a thousand voices to begin One brave note can turn the whole world in When the night has held you longer than it should Hope walks in softly, then it sounds so good [Pre-Chorus] Who said small beginnings cannot shine? Every sleeping promise has its time [Chorus] Here comes the African Rooster Silent Lives, Loud Dreams Waking up the dreamer with AI Let the hidden song rise Let the tired heart sing Silent Lives, Loud Dreams Waking up the dreamer with AI [Bridge] [Choir] Wake up, wake up, dreamer [Lead] Your story is not over [Choir] Stand up, stand up, dreamer [Lead] There’s a doorway in the quiet [Choir] Sing on, sing on, dreamer [Lead] Let the unseen become known [All] When the room is still, the future can begin [Break] Ah-oo, ah-oo—here comes the morning Ah-oo, ah-oo—new dreams are forming [Final Chorus] Here comes the African Rooster Silent Lives, Loud Dreams Waking up the dreamer with AI From the hush into the light From the waiting into wings Silent Lives, Loud Dreams Waking up the dreamer with AI [Outro] Here comes the African Rooster Hear that call across the sky Silent Lives, Loud Dreams Wake up, dreamer, wake up and fly
