MAROON TESTAMENT

[Chorus]
MetLife grass under stadium lights
Make this the one, Lord, make this our night
From Lusail to Jersey, watch the color run
They pray for a giant, we pray for eleven sons

[Verse 1]
Back in November '22, the whole world watched us break
Felt that silence in Al Bayt, for goodness' sake
Now the passport's stamped again, a different kind of cold
A story only told by the brave and the bold
They talk about the money, they don't talk about the plan
The decade in the academy, boy turning to a man
My uncle in London texted, "Yallah, it's our time"
From the back of the crowd, we're committing the perfect crime

[Chorus]
MetLife grass under stadium lights
Make this the one, Lord, make this our night
From Lusail to Jersey, watch the color run
They pray for a giant, we pray for eleven sons

[Verse 2]
Yeah, the draw came in, they slept on us for sure
Canada, the Swiss, Bosnia at the door
They see a host nation, a soft touch, a first round flight
We see the Asian champs, two cups, burning bright
This ain't tiki-taka, this is Tintín's low block art
Akram with the vision 'bout to tear their back line apart
It's a fifty-fifty tackle against the suits in the suites
But the heat from the flare smoke is the only thing that beats

[Bridge]
This ain't for the pundits, this is for the diaspora
4 a.m. in Sydney, screaming till we're hoarse for ya
This is our year, I see it clear, no doubt within the soul
One badge, one pulse, one singular goal

[Chorus]
MetLife grass under stadium lights
Make this the one, Lord, make this our night
From Lusail to Jersey, watch the color run
They pray for a giant, we pray for eleven sons

[Outro]
Maroon and white.
Maroon and white.
