[Verse 1] They rebuilt the bridge at Mostar stone by stone Taught their children songs they'd never sing alone Thirty years of "maybe next time, maybe never" Tonight the maybe died and became forever [Pre-Chorus] Count the steps from the ashes to the light Every one of them was worth this night [Chorus] Zenica! The ground is shaking underneath our feet Zenica! The whole world hears our heartbeat in the street They said we were too broken, too small to take the stage But broken things hit harder — welcome to our age Zenica! [Verse 2] The keeper kissed the post and whispered something low Four penalties like thunder in the Zenica snow A country in a living room, a million prayers deep Then the keeper's gloves caught lightning and a nation learned to weep [Pre-Chorus] One city's voice became a country's roar Every scar a medal that we always wore [Chorus] Zenica! The ground is shaking underneath our feet Zenica! The whole world hears our heartbeat in the street They said we were too broken, too small to take the stage But broken things hit harder — welcome to our age Zenica! [Bridge] My grandfather survived the siege My mother rebuilt the school My father poured the concrete back Now I'm standing where they stood They gave us ruins, we gave them back a team They gave us nothing, we gave them back a dream [Final Chorus] ZENICA! The ground is shaking underneath our feet! ZENICA! Tell every nation who they're gonna meet! Not broken — we were forged, we were the flame itself Broken things don't shatter when they've got nothing left! ZENICA! [Outro] Ze-ni-ca! Ze-ni-ca! Ze-ni-ca!
