[Intro: Bright Gamelan Bonang and Kendang Rampak] [Electric Violin Motif plays cheerful melody] (Kids shouting playfully: Siji, loro, telu... Yo!) [Verse 1: Saron and Playful Kendang Groove] Here we go I've been in rooms where everybody Seemed to know just what to say I was laughing at the right time Still I felt a step away (Kids: Step away!) Then you showed up with a bad joke I laughed harder than I should Five minutes into talking Something already felt good No trying to be cooler, no changing who we are Some people make you wonder, some just get you from the start [Pre-Chorus: Kendang Tempo Up, Bonang Rhythms Build Up] (Kids background chatter and laughing) Are you ready? Here we go now! (Kids Chorus) (I do the same!) I found my people! (Kids Chorus) (Hok-a! Hok-e! Life feels better this way!) This way! (Lead Vocal) I found my people! (Kids Chorus) (Hey! Found my place!) I can be myself and you do the same! Different stories! (Kids Chorus) (Same wavelength!) You show up for me, I do the same! I found my people! I found my people! And life feels better this way! This way! (Kids Chorus) (This way!) This way! (Kids Chorus) (Hok-a! Hok-e! Life feels better this way!) This way! (Kids Chorus) (This way!) This way! (Kids Chorus) (This way! Yo!) [Interlude: Fast Peking Gamelan Ostinato and Electric Violin Hook] [Verse 2: Mid-tempo Percussive Folk Groove] Now it's late night conversations Sending songs we know we like Calling just to say you won't believe What happened here tonight (Kids: What happened tonight?) Some days one of us goes quiet That's when the other checks in You don't need to fix the whole world You just need to be a friend No keeping score between us, no need to play a part You know when I need laughing You know when life gets hard (Kids Chorus) (I do the same!) I found my people! (Kids Chorus) (Hok-a! Hok-e! Life feels better this way!) This way! (Lead Vocal) I found my people! (Kids Chorus) (Hey! Found my place!) I can be myself and you do the same! Different stories! (Kids Chorus) (Same wavelength!) You show up for me, I do the same! I found my people! I found my people! And life feels better this way! This way! (Kids Chorus) (This way!) This way! (Kids Chorus) (Hok-a! Hok-e! Life feels better this way!) This way! (Kids Chorus) (This way!) This way! (Kids Chorus) (Come on!) [Bridge: Gentle Saron and Suling Flute Transitioning to Energetic Drums] One friend, two friends, maybe that's enough (Kids: That's enough!) Don't need a hundred names to know you've got real love And if our roads get busy, if we're miles apart someday Send a message, make a call, we'll pick up where we left off 'Cause real friends don't need perfect They just need something true And I'm glad this crazy world Had a road that led to you! [Gamelan Break: Kendang Solo Drop with Kids Cheering] (Hok-a! Hok-e! Ya-o!) [Chorus: Maximum Energy - Kids Playground Singing Out Loud] Side by side! Here we go! (Lead Vocal) I found my people! (Kids Chorus) (Hey! Found my place!) I can be myself and you do the same! Different stories! (Kids Chorus) (Same wavelength!) You show up for me, I do the same! I found my people! I found my people! And life feels better this way! Different stories, same wavelength! I'm glad I found my people! (Kids Chorus) (I do the same!) I found my people! (Kids Chorus) (I do the same!) I found my people! (Kids Chorus) (I do the same!) I found my people!
