Lyrics

Chorus

Home grown from the islands, yeah

Roots run deep in volcanic soil

Natural blessings from the land we share

Island pride that will never spoil

Verse 1

Sunrise over Mauna Kea

Coffee beans and pakalolo

Taro fields where my tutu grew

Living off what the island gave us, bro

Salt water running through my veins

Trade winds carry away my pain

This is where my heart belongs

Island rhythm in my songs

Pre-Chorus

From the mountains to the shore

This is what we're living for

Chorus

Home grown from the islands, yeah

Roots run deep in volcanic soil

Natural blessings from the land we share

Island pride that will never spoil

Verse 2

Fishing nets and coconut trees

Breadfruit hanging in the breeze

Grandpa taught me how to survive

Keep the culture alive

Respect the land and it feeds you back

Simple truth that we never lack

Born and raised on sacred ground

Paradise is what we found

Pre-Chorus

From the mountains to the shore

This is what we're living for

Chorus

Home grown from the islands, yeah

Roots run deep in volcanic soil

Natural blessings from the land we share

Island pride that will never spoil

Bridge

When the city calls my name

I remember why I came

Back to where the ocean meets the sky

Polynesian lullaby

Ancient wisdom in my soul

Makes my spirit feel whole

This land shaped who I am today

Island child, this is my way

Outro

Home grown, home grown

From these islands I have grown

Home grown, home grown

This will always be my home

Verse 3

Plumeria scent in morning air

Ukulele strings and ocean prayer

Pineapple fields stretch to the sea

This is how it's meant to be

Ohana gathered round the fire

Sharing stories, hearts inspire

Every sunset paints the sky

Reminding me of reasons why

Pre-Chorus

From the mountains to the shore

This is what we're living for

Chorus

Home grown from the islands, yeah

Roots run deep in volcanic soil

Natural blessings from the land we share

Island pride that will never spoil
