Intro

We all just lookin' for a way to move From the muscle to the mind, gotta find the groove This ain't just motion, this is somethin' to prove From the gravity, we gotta break on through

Verse 1

Yeah, check the launch, that's the ultimate symbol How we gettin' gone, see the rocket tremble Need eleven-point-two-k, that's the physics Clicks per second just to leave the critics That's escape velocity, a heavy price tag 'Til reusability rewrote the whole math Yeah, the cost is droppin', but the mission ain't just profit Gotta teach the youth, put a 'mil in the deposit For the STEM kids in the hood, underrepresented Give 'em tools for the stars, futures gettin' invented From the ISS, orbitin' the home-base Global tech is boomin' from what we did in space

Chorus

We all just tryna move, find a new altitude From the block to the moon, that's the gratitude So when we get the boost, gotta show 'em what to do We lift 'em as we climb, gotta bring the whole crew

Verse 2

Part two, we cross the planet, check the global arteries Jet stream cuts the time, climate cost, pardon me Contrails paint the sky, that's a different kinda weather Oceans full of ships, holdin' the world together That's the hidden economy, cargo stacked high Then the bullet train passin' you by Maglev tech, no wheels on the track Carbon advantage, never lookin' back Then the urban pulse, cars changed how we act Gave us freedom, new date, that's a fact EV's shift the grid, but the metro's for the mass Mobility is justice, can't be last, gotta pass

Bridge

From the interstellar dreams to the subway car It don't matter how you move, it just matters how far You're willin' to go, for the ones who ain't there Clean the ocean, clear the air, show you care

Verse 3

The human scale, two wheels, that's efficient power Gave 'em freedom, bikes for education, build a tower That's liberation, energy miracle, for real Then the balance act, skateboards, that's the feel It's expression, not just gettin' from the start To the end, we been walkin', that's an art Meditation, protest, connectin' on the street Now the future's comin', what we gonna meet? Hyperloop in the tube, flyin' taxis in the sky What's beyond the map? Imagination, break the axis Teleport the mind, it's a metaphor for change Gotta fund the kids who see beyond our current range

Chorus

We all just tryna move, find a new altitude From the block to the moon, that's the gratitude So when we get the boost, gotta show 'em what to do We lift 'em as we climb, gotta bring the whole crew

Bridge

From the walk to the quantum leap, it's the same desire To see what's next, to take the whole world higher We are the motion, we're the spark and the fuel Teachin' creativity, that's the final jewel

Chorus

We all just tryna move, find a new altitude From the block to the moon, that's the gratitude So when we get the boost, gotta show 'em what to do We lift 'em as we climb, gotta bring the whole crew

Chorus

We all just tryna move, find a new altitude From the block to the moon, that's the gratitude So when we get the boost, gotta show 'em what to do We lift 'em as we climb, gotta bring the whole crew

Outro

Yeah, lift 'em as we climb... From the muscle to the mind... Humanity's biggest moves... Teachin' 'em the groove. Log off.
