    LYRICS:
    The best part of puttin' myself out there
    Is when you say we've helped cure your worst despair
    Depression, grief, or just the courage to get out the sheets
    And reach for loose-leaf
    We ain't special, we ain't different
    We ain't any more better than you
    Yeah, you, you can do whatever the hell you wanna do
    When you just believe in you
    We can't walk away
    Our calling is calling
    Spent night after night for years
    Teaching ourselves to persevere
    Our calling is calling
    We will run the world
    We will run the world
    We will run
    Spent a lot of nights thinking in my room
    Are the fruits of my labor soon to bloom?
    The best way I know how to do
    That's taking pen to paper, lettin' my mind choose
    I take a sip or two, feelin' loose
    Like I got nothing to lose
    But so much I got left to prove
    To myself, but also to all of you
    Who believe in me
    Even when I doubt myself
    We can't walk away
    Our calling is calling
    Spent night after night for years
    Teaching ourselves to persevere
    Our calling is calling
    We will run the world
    We will run the world
    We will run
    generation Z, generation me
    Generation inclusivity
    Believe you me, change you will see
    Comin' at you like a fuckin' Ferrari
    Generation Z, generation me
    Fix the sins of your ancestry
    Ask not, "Whose gonna let me?"
    Make sure they don't forget me
    We can't walk away
    Our calling is calling
    We can't walk away
    Our calling is calling
    Songwriters: James Priestner / Jared Priestner / Lubomir Ivan / Jan Cajka / Duran Ritz

    This one's a personal favourite of mine. It's kinda become increasinly rare to find any new music that is anthemic and tries to inspire hope in our generation. There's a lot of (well justified) negativity in songs nowadays but it's still so important that we acknowledge that we can still change the world. Love ya Rare Americans. Thanks for giving me some of my favourite music this decade!

    Thank you guys so much for this music, really lifted me today when I needed it. I'm a new rare American fan, been listening since introduced to brittle bones. Want to say from my heart and happy tears flowing that you guys are awesome and one of the many reasons for me to keep on living. Not so easy being through childhood abuse being emotionally and mentally f*cked, yet still holding on hope, faith, determination on my own life. Really Grateful and Just Thank you so much🙂

    I don't remember how I found Rare Americans, but they are hands down my favorite music group out there these days. Every song is an amazing jam, and every video has a wonderful story tied to it. Music videos are frequently throw-away boringness that are just there for the sake of being there. The videos are wonderful works of art just like the music; both can stand on their own merit and I love that.

    With most Rare American songs my favorite part isn’t even the music (the music is still amazing). For the most part, I just like the stories they tell. The reason why I like this band so much is because their songs are basically just short stories with a kick. Y’all’er amazing. Keep on doing your thing.

    Always loved how he meets a hot older women who shares a similar trauma, and it doesn't immediately turn into a romance.
    Instead, she's just this insanely supportive older role model/big sister who immediately adopts him, and holy shit! Hollywood? Are you taking notes here?!!
    So much more satisfying than every other movie out there that acts like a guy and girl can't be in the same scene without there needing to be romantic subtext.

    Lyrics : (Because YTB removed it)
    The best part of puttin' myself out there
    Is when you say we've helped cure your worst despair
    Depression, grief, or just the courage to get out the sheets
    And reach for loose-leaf
    We ain't special, we ain't different
    We ain't any more better than you
    Yeah, you, you can do whatever the hell you wanna do
    When you just believe in you
    We can't walk away
    Our calling is calling
    Spent night after night for years
    Teaching ourselves to persevere
    Our calling is calling
    We will run the world
    We will run the world
    We will run
    spent a lot of nights thinking in my room
    Are the fruits of my labor soon to bloom?
    The best way I know how to do
    That's taking pen to paper, lettin' my mind choose
    I take a sip or two, feelin' loose
    Like I got nothing to lose
    But so much I got left to prove
    To myself, but also to all of you
    Who believe in me
    Even when I doubt myself
    We can't walk away
    Our calling is calling
    Spent night after night for years
    Teaching ourselves to persevere
    Our calling is calling
    We will run the world
    We will run the world
    We will run
    generation Z, generation me
    Generation inclusivity
    Believe you me, change you will see
    Comin' at you like a fuckin' Ferrari
    Generation Z, generation me
    Fix the sins of your ancestry
    Ask not, "Whose gonna let me?"
    Make sure they don't forget me
    We can't walk away
    Our calling is calling
    We can't walk away
    Our calling is calling

    I havent been able to cry in months, and have been going through some really hard times emotionally and in life. I hadnt listened to you guys in months but then ryan and dave was reccomended to me. After that this song played and the tears just wont stop. Thank you. Youre music always helped me theough hard times, and i guess i forgot about it because things wrre so bleak, sre so bleak. Thank you.

    Honestly love this band so much, just growing up as a "loser" it makes me so happy to see a band spreading such a great message that everyone is going through something even the bullies. That's why I never take anything to personal bc that person is probably going through something worse.

    I have been dealing with depression, anxiety, and dysphoria for a long time now. I got to see you guys as my first concert in Omaha and y'all were amazing! This song makes me feel like I can gain control of my life. Like I can triumph!
    Since I went to the concert, I've had the motivation to start working out, put more effort into school and socializing, my self esteem has boosted a bit and I'm feeling good!
    I love you guys!

    I'm usually the type of person that has favorite songs and not bands, but there is not a single RA song that I do not like and this has to be probably one of my new favorites just simply by the story told in the animation. Your music always helps me turn a bad day into one that I can get through, thank you for that!

    Never stop making such amazing content! Some of my favorites are "brittle bones Nicky"[and part 2] and "gas mask" but I also like "Milk man" and the one about office workers who are getting eaten by large corporations; I forget what it's actually called...
    But! these songs do help me get out of bed in the morning because they just fire me up!!! And I'm ready to go! to deal with the day no matter what's in my way!

    Favorite part of this song is the fact it portays both sides of the story and especially how it portays a person's insecurity and frustration of being placed in a certain situation they don't know how to handle

    Loved this song, great story telling, great animation, having the band singing the whole time and showing later on actually singing, great lore, even Nicky showed up in this one, more screen time for him, it’s great. Again, loved it. 👍👍

    Rare Americans have single handedly became my inspiration since I first saw their Cats, Dogs, and Rats ad. I have never felt more dedicated to a band more in my life and honestly these guys just need to keep up the amazing work. Watching them grow and grow from that ad has honestly felt amazing to me and I couldn't ask for it to be better. Every new song is just perfect and catchy and they'll always have my support. Keep up the amazing work guys, you're doing amazing.
