This music video is SG Enable’s rallying call to all Singaporeans to build an inclusive Singapore beyond the realities of today. 'Our Story' is a celebration of a decade of inclusive efforts by SG Enable and our partners and was composed by Dr Darius Lim, the Artistic Director of Voices of Singapore.

Our Story Song Lyrics

Verse 1​

Let our vision be our guiding light as we journey through our lives​

Let our song echo into the night, united in our strife​

Look around us, let us realise we're part of the same side​

Let's create a future where every voice takes flight​

​

Chorus 1​

I am strong, I am different, unique in every way​

We're part of the same story, we're part of the same place​

Celebrate our colours, each and every face​

You are a part of me, a journey we embrace​

​

Verse 2​

As we build a world where all can thrive, let compassion be our pride​

Let us cherish every moment, let us break down all divide​

Together we'll venture across the oceans wide ​

With hope and strength, we'll journey through every song and tide​

Chorus 2​

I am strong, I am different, unique in every way​

We're part of the same story, we're part of the same place​

Celebrate our colours, each and every face​

You are a part of me, a journey we embrace​

​

Bridge​

Through the darkest days, we know we'll see it through​

With a warm embrace, accepting me and you​

You are my brother, my sister and my friend​

You are my family, my pillar and my strength​

​

Chorus 3​

I am strong, I am different, unique in every way​

We're part of the same story, we're part of the same place​

Celebrate our colours, each and every face​

You are a part of me, a journey we embrace​

You are a part of me, a journey we embrace​
