[Verse 1]
EmGot the North Star guidin' me
CIt's the fire Gburning inside of me
EmNo, I don't need a miracle
CI got something Gfar more powerful
EmAnd in this collective
CI've got a Gbrand new perspective
EmSome news that might break the tension
CCan't walk on water
But I'm Gwalking through an intersection
[Pre-Chorus]
CAll aboardEm, I heGard my brother say
CAll aboardEm, lGike it's some parade
[Chorus]
EmThat's me, I'm Cknockin' at the Gdoor
I'm thirstyEm  
For Cmore, for more, for Gmore
EmThat's me, I'm Cknockin' at the Gdoor
I'Amm knockin' at the dG/Boor
I'Cm knockin' at the Ddoor
That's meEm  
[Verse 2]
Em(Talk about the time you were broken)
CI regret the Ghours that were stolen
Em(So how'd you keep going?)
I put my Cshoulder to the wheel
And I Gjust kept rollin'
You can Emcall it religion
Walkin' into the mystic
CWhen the power's with people
GI don't get pessimistic
Standin' Emshoulder to shoulder
I hold me head high
Standin' Cshoulder to shoulder
As we Gwalk across the finish line
[Pre-Chorus]
CAll aboardEm, I heGard my sister say
CAll aboardEm, I Gbring your offerings
[Chorus]
EmThat's me, I'm Cknockin' at the Gdoor
I'm thirstyEm  
For Cmore, for more, for Gmore
EmThat's me, I'm Cknockin' at the Gdoor
I'Amm knockin' at the dG/Boor
I'Cm knockin' at the Ddoor
That's meEm

It's the fire burning inside of me

No, I don't need a miracle

When the power's with people

I don't get pessimistic

Standin' shoulder to shoulder

I hold me head high

Standin' shoulder to shoulder

As we walk across the finish line

[Pre-Chorus]

All aboard, I heard my sister say

All aboard, I bring your offerings
