Voice of the Ocean

(Verse 1)
I’ve walked the shoreline since I was a child
Looking at the mountains, looking at the wild
The stories of the elders, echoing the sea
Telling me the island is waiting just for me
They say the path is dangerous, they say the path is long
But my heart beats with a rhythm, a timeless, sacred song.
(Pre-Chorus)
And I won't turn back, no I won't fall
I will rise up and answer the call
I feel the ancestors beside me now
To lift up my people, I make this vow!
(Chorus)
I can sail the ocean!
I can hold the line!
Every wave, every storm, it is all meant to be mine!
I’ll guide us to our destiny, let the drums resound
I will be the chief, where my true strength is found!
Oh, I will guide us… to the sun.
(Verse 2)
The sky is turning orange, the wind is blowing strong
I’ve practiced for this moment, all my whole life long
I’ll lead us to the future, I’ll keep the traditions true
I’m carving out a journey, a journey that is new
They told me it was impossible, that I was just a child
But I am of this island, both gentle and the wild.
(Bridge - Music swells, tempo increases)
Through the mist, through the fire!
I am raising my desires!
From the coral to the sky!
I will make my people fly!
(Chorus - Big Finish)
I can sail the ocean!
I can hold the line!
Every wave, every storm, it is all meant to be mine!
I’ll guide us to our destiny, let the drums resound
I will be the chief, where my true strength is found!
Yes, I will guide us… to the sun!
(Outro)
Where my true strength...
Is found.
