(yo!) [Verse 1] (Ben Franklin) Left Boston town, I had to find my way, Philly called my name, where I'd seize the day. Just a young man with ambition in sight, Printing press in hand, ready to ignite. (Narrator) 1730, Franklin hit the Philly scene, With dreams in his heart and a mind so keen. Philly streets, where he'd make his mark, In the City of Brotherly Love, he found his spark. [Chorus] (All, Sung) In Philadelphia, dreams take flight, Through the struggle and the night. Building futures, bold and bright, In the city’s guiding light. [Verse 2] (Ben Franklin) Set up shop, printing words with flair, Ideas spreading fast, like sparks in the air. Junto Club, where the minds would meet, Discussing ways to make our city elite. (Narrator) The Junto, a gathering for mutual aid, Ideas and ambitions on display, never swayed. Fire brigades, paving the streets, Civic duty rising, no defeat. [Chorus] (All, Sung) In Philadelphia, dreams take flight, Through the struggle and the night. Building futures, bold and bright, In the city’s guiding light. [Bridge] (Narrator) Inventive spirit, electricity’s quest, Franklin's experiments put to the test. Kite in the storm, keys to the sky, Unlocking secrets as the sparks did fly. (Ben Franklin) Science and politics, I made my stand, In Philly’s bustling, growing land. From schools to hospitals, my vision clear, In the City of Brotherly Love, I held dear. [Verse 3] (Ben Franklin) Postal system, connecting the colonies, Bringing news and thoughts across the seas. Libraries growing, knowledge for all, In Philly's embrace, we stood tall. (Narrator) Franklin’s influence, a beacon of light, Guiding Philly through the darkest night. From humble beginnings to heights so grand, In the heart of Philly, he made his stand. [Chorus] (All, Sung) In Philadelphia, dreams take flight, Through the struggle and the night. Building futures, bold and bright, In the city’s guiding light. [Outro] (Ben Franklin) From humble beginnings, to heights so grand, Philly shaped my journey, in this newfound land. With a legacy built on love and might, Philadelphia, my guiding light. *Instrumental crescendo with powerful strings, drums, and triumphant brass, ending with a strong finale* [Chorus] (All, Sung) (aiiiight!) In the city’s guiding light (aiiiight!) In the city’s guiding light (aiiiight!) [Verse 3] (Ben Franklin) Science and politics, I made my stand, In Philly’s bustling, growing land. From schools to hospitals, my vision clear, In the City of Brotherly Love, I held dear. (Blackthought, autotune) Franklin’s influence, a beacon of light, Guiding Philly through the darkest night. From humble beginnings to heights so grand, In the heart of Philly, he made his stand. [Chorus] (All, Sung) In Philadelphia, dreams take flight, Through the struggle and the night. Building futures, bold and bright, In the city’s guiding light (aiight!) [Outro] (Ben Franklin, sung) From humble beginnings, to heights so grand, Philly shaped my journey, in this newfound land. With a legacy built on love and might, Philadelphia, my guiding light. (aiiiight!) *Instrumental crescendo with powerful strings, drums, and triumphant brass, ending with a strong finale*
