Lyrics The Assembly Song - Gabe Castro , Cami-Cat

We built this city on our backs
And we did it on our own
Without the need for their assistance
No, we did it all alone
It was because we helped each other
To thrive despite the pain
We all have lived together
While they rule from far away

What do you say to a face
That has never even seen you
So many who've seen hell
And yet keep pushing through
Well, I can say it with pride
That I know that I'm alive
Because this city took a monster
And has given her a life

They say you don't have power
They're telling you wrong
You know the streets of this city
They only know walls
They say they have us cornered
Well, I say they're lost
They won't take us in pieces
They'll take the whole lot!

Take up arms, Brother! (Yeah!)
Show these fools looking in
They don't know who they're messing with
Build it tall, Sister! (Yeah!)
Make a maze only we'd see
They'll never see it coming

What say you, will you stand behind me?
(Yeah!) What say you to protecting this city?
(Yeah!) We will prove we don't face them alone
We'll show them if we have to
We'll fight for our home!
