Buildings Rise: An Original Song
An original song, Buildings Rise celebrates creativity in transforming land into iconic communities and bridging divides in complex real estate negotiations.
Introduction
Buildings Rise is an original song that highlights the stark contrast between the mundane routines of traditional, uninspired corporate brokerages and the dynamic vision of real estate developers. These developers transform land into iconic buildings and thriving communities, collaborating with landowners who either have the foresight or the good fortune to hold the “urban gold” beneath it—an essential part of this creative process.
The song ultimately celebrates the power of creativity, not just in constructing physical structures, but in crafting the deals that make them possible. It underscores the artistry needed to transcend conflict and foster unity, even among parties who may never directly interact. By uncovering diverse values, addressing doubts and fears, and building trust between a central broker and stakeholders on opposing sides, visions are brought to life. And so, buildings rise.
Song Lyrics
[Verse 1]
They're pushing papers 9 to 5
Stacks of listings just survive
Stale old facts fill every sheet
No spark no flair an endless repeat
[Verse 2]
Corporate suits with ties so tight
Never dream just count the nights
Trapped in boxes labeled norm
Where's the passion where's the storm
[Chorus]
But hey look at those buildings rise
Dreamers turning dirt to skies
Paint the clouds with vision bright
They’re the stars that light the night
[Verse 3]
Investors knew the gold beneath,
Urban land where value breathes.
Saw beyond the present ground,
Building futures, dollar-bound.
[Verse 4]
Builders dream in brilliant ways,
Finance, law bring plans to blaze.
Designers draft where visions grow,
Engineering concepts flow.
[Chorus]
But hey look at those buildings rise
Dreamers turning dirt to skies
Paint the clouds with vision bright
They’re the stars that light the night
[Bridge]
The challenge is to bring them near,
Different voices, doubts, and fear.
Dreamers both, yet worlds apart,
Creative mind to weave one heart.
[Verse 5]
Urban gold and skies of blue,
A guiding force that pulls it through.
Building bridges from the start,
Making conflict into art.
[Chorus]
And hey we're making buildings rise
We're the dreamers turning dirt to skies
Paint the clouds with vision bright
We’re the stars that light the night.
We're the stars that light the night.
