As a child you would wait, and watch from far away
 But you always knew that you'd be
 the one to work while they all play.
 In youth, you'd lay
 awake at night and scheme
 Of all the things that you would change,
 but it was just a dream.

Here we are don't turn away, now
 We are the Warriors that built this town.
 Here we are don't turn away, now
 We are the Warriors that built this town from dust.

The time [bad word] when you'll have to rise
 Above the best and prove yourself
 Your spirit never dies.
 Farewell, I've gone to take my throne above
 But don't weep for me,
 cause this will be the labor of my love.

Here we are don't turn away, now
 We are the Warriors that built this town.
 Here we are don't turn away, now
 We are the Warriors that built this town from dust.
 [bad word] 

Here we are don't turn away, now
 We are the Warriors that built this town.
 Here we are don't turn away, now
 We are the Warriors that built this town from dust.
