Louder Than the Doubt

Verse

Gold dust kicking off the back of my sandals

Mango juice running down to my wrist

Radio wired to a mango-crate speaker

Nobody's watching but we still exist

Barefoot on the tin roof counting the water towers

Seventeen summers and we own every one

We got dust in our teeth and a map made of hours

Racing the shadows till the whole sky is done

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it climbing up your spine

Every whisper that said we'd never shine

Watch us turn it into gasoline

Chorus

We are louder than the doubt

Sun in our mouths, we're burning it out

Drums in the street, feet in the sand

Young and unstoppable, world in our hands

Every no becomes a shout

We are louder than the doubt

Verse

Paper lanterns strung across the alley

Uncle's old guitar missing half its strings

Cousins on the wall doing call and rally

Grandma's laugh is the loudest thing

Salt on my shoulders from the ocean crossing

Palm leaves clapping like they're in the band

We don't need permission, we're the ones tossing

Sparks into a night that we command

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it climbing up your spine

Every whisper that said we'd never shine

Watch us turn it into gasoline

Chorus

We are louder than the doubt

Sun in our mouths, we're burning it out

Drums in the street, feet in the sand

Young and unstoppable, world in our hands

Every no becomes a shout

We are louder than the doubt

Bridge

They said slow down, wait your turn

But the fire in us was made to burn

Take the whispers, watch them turn to flame

We don't need a reason, we just say our name

Chorus

We are louder than the doubt

Sun in our mouths, we're burning it out

Drums in the street, feet in the sand

Young and unstoppable, world in our hands

Every no becomes a shout

We are louder, we are louder

We are louder than the doubt
