Welcome To Rosas

(Ariana DeBose, Wish)

Welcome to Rosas
Come on, come this way
Where the greatest creations are all on display
There's no other place just as full of surprise
Where your dreams and your reality can collide
You wanna dance on beat?
Or to have hair touch down to your feet?
Go to outer space?
Well, hey, you've come to the right place

'Cause here in the city of Rosas
You can turn all your wanting to wishing
No what-ifs and no wonders
Oh, here in the city of Rosas
It's unlikely that you'll be unhappy
With so much to discover

A home for me (me)
For you (you)
And all of us (us)
The city of Rosas

So like, we have this king named Magnifico
And he built Rosas many years ago
With lightning for hands and eyes that can glow
No, no, no, I'm totally kidding! But he is powerful
He's just like us with a twist
And someone that I'd like to kiss (oh, dear!)
A magic swish
And there you have it, poof, there's your wish!
Ooh and, hey did I mention when you turn eighteen?
You get to give your wish in a ceremony
And he keeps them safe, every wish he acquires
And once a month he grants someone's greatest desire
It could be you someday or my saba Sabino's
Ooh, I can't wait!
Does it hurt?
Do you cry?
Oh, no, and you won't even miss it when you say "goodbye"

'Cause here in the city of Rosas
You can turn all your wanting to wishing
No what-ifs and no wonders
Oh, here in the city of Rosas
It's unlikely that you'll be unhappy
With so much to discover

A home for me (me)
For you (you)
And all of us (us)
The city of Rosas

At All Costs

(Chris Pine, Ariana DeBose & Disney)

If happiness was a tangible thing
It would be you
If you'd have told me the feeling you'd bring
I'd think it untrue
And people search for a wonder like you
All of their lives
You still amaze me after all this time

You pull me in like some kind of wind
Mesmerized by the hold I'm in
Leave you here, I don't wanna
I wanna

Promise as one does
I, I will protect you at all costs
Keep you safe here in my arms
I, I will protect you at all costs
At all costs

What's pain? When I look at you? No way
I could explain you, even if tried to
I'll never dream like used to do
If someone tried to hurt you, I don't
See how that could happen
I'd fight for you in ways you can't imagine
Felt this, no, I haven't, I hope
It would be all right to stay right here beside you

And promise as one does
I, I will protect you at all costs
Keep you safe here in my arms
I, I will protect you at all costs
At all costs

If you're ever feeling like you're lost
I'll come find you
Man all fronts, there's no ocean I won't swim across
To be right by you
And not just once, here and now I swear on my response
I'll remind you

And promise as one does
I, I will protect you at all costs
Keep you safe here in my arms
I, I will protect you at all costs
At all costs

This Wish

I'm A Star

(Wish)

Have you ever wondered why you look up at the sky for answers?
Or why flowers in the wind are effortless and eloquent dancers?
What forms the rings in the trees? Turns a pine from a seed?
What's passed down generationally, to you? (And to me?)
And why our eyes all look like microscopic galaxies?
Have you ever wondered why you look up at the sky for answers?

Well, you don't have to look too hard
We're here for all your question marks
If you're try'na figure out just who you are
Don't look far
In the sky, and your front yard
In your heart and in your scars
If you really wanna know just who you are
You're a star (yes!)

Boom! Did we just blow your mind? Uh-huh
Well, I've known the entire time
When it comes to the universe we're all shareholders
Get that trough your system (Solar!)
See we're all just little nebulae in a nursery
From supernovas now we've grown into our history
We're taking why's right out of mystery, closure
Now we're taking in
All the star exposure!

We eat the leaves and they eat the sun
See that's where all the balls of gas come from
Hey, you still look like you're hanging on by a strand
But if you just see the mushrooms then you'll understand

So your dust, is my dust?
Fantastic!
Huh!

Well, you don't have to look too hard
It's all around and not too far
If you're try'na figure out just who you are
You're a star!
Do you know you're a work of art
Even in the deepest dark?
If you really wanna know just who you are
I'm a star!

Here's a little fun allegory
That gets me excitatory
This might sink in in the morning
We are our own origin story
If I'm explaining this poorly
Well I'll let star do it for me
It's all quite revelatory
We are our own origin story

You don't have to look too hard
It's all around and not too far
If you're try'na figure out just who you are
You're a star!
No matter where you end or start
We're all each other's counterparts
If you really wanna know just who you are
I'm a star! Woo

Ooh, I'm a star!
Watch out world here I are (hey, hey)
You know who's lookin' sharp? (Who?)
Me, I'm a star! (Woo)
Ooh, you're a star!
Watch out world, here you are! (Hey, hey)
You know who's lookin' sharp? (Who?)
You! You're a star!

This Is The Thanks I Get?!

(Chris Pine & Disney)

I can't help it if mirrors love my face
It's genetics! Yeah, I got these genes from outer space
Peep the name, I'm magnificent
I put the "I" in "omnipotent"
I'm passionate, I'm not petulant
Someone praise me for my benevolence
Uh, just look, ha-ha
I'd give the clothes off Benito's back
If you really needed that
I'd be the first one to volunteer Henry
If your home were to crumble
Or if you were in trouble

I let you live here for free
And I don't even charge you rent
I clean up all your messes
And I'm always there when you need to vent
I give and give and give and give
You'd think they'd all be content
And all I really want is just a little respect

And this is the thanks I get?
This is the thanks I get?
And this is the thanks I get?
And this is the thanks I get?

"You're so brilliant"
Ah, that's the least you could say
There's more, admit it
"You're cute and strong and bold and brave," thanks
See this kingdom? I built it up
And you still complain? Ungrateful much?
Mm, are you sure that you're not the prob?
I'd love to see you try and do my job, oh-ho!

I granted fourteen wishes last year
Come on, that's a high percent
And now you're questioning your king?
The disrespect I just underwent
You know I always got your back
Yeah, really though, it's no sweat
Since the day you were born and the day that we met

And this is the thanks I get?
This is the thanks I get?
And this is the thanks I get?
And this is the thanks I get?

I didn't wanna do this
I swore I'd never do this
But I'm hypnotized by how these pages flip
'Cause I refuse to have my power stripped
A potion, a spell, a summon, a curse?
Anything to make that light reverse
To this book, I don't wanna be tethered, but
Desperate times call for desperate measures
Brr, where was I? Oh, yeah

There's a traitor in this town
And still I remain unbent
Come out now, explain yourself
I'm sure it's all just an accident
Well, whoever finds them first
Now, that's a wish well spent
Honestly, keeping you safe should be worth every cent

And this is the thanks I get?
This is the thanks I get?
And this is the thanks I get?
This is the thanks I get?
Oh, this is the thanks I get?

Knowing What I Know Now

(Ariana DeBose, Angelique Cabral, Wish)

You've been deceived
Magnifico is not the man he claims to be
He's more vicious than I could have ever comprehended
When I made a wish and Star came down
This is not what I expected or intended
But now that it's happened I don't regret it
'Cause now I've seen
Him show his true colors, in shades of green
Saying that you wishes aren't safe because of me and
That's a lie, lie, lie, lie
And I-I know I can't do this on my own and

If it's not us then who and when?
If we don't fight he knows he wins
Not allowed
Knowing what I know now
The lengths he'll go there's no amount
I won't sit back watch this play out
That's my vow
Knowing what I know now

Get up, yah!
Know I'm not the only one that's (yah)
Fed up (yah)

Wait 'til they hear our feet go dun, dun, dun, dun (yeah)

I don't think he's prepared for what's coming

A revolution hit the ground runnin'

If there's one thing he can't keep down
Uh-huh
It's us and the strength we've found
It's too loud (loud)
Knowing what we know now (knowing what we know now)

And who, who knows if we'll succeed?
But we-
Won't stop and we won't retreat or turn round
Round
Knowing what we know now
Knowing what we know now

Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo
Hoo-ha-hoo-ha-hoo-ha
Hoo-hoo-hoo

Can he tell what we're becomin'? (Hoo)
Hear it in the way we're drummin' (hoo)
I was sweet but now I'm something else (oho)
Yah, yah, yah, yah! (Hoo-hoo)

Ain't it nice of us to drop in (hoo-ha)
To take what's ours to take it back in? (hoo-ha)
He thinks we're nothing (hoo)
But we're something else! (Ha)
Yah! (Hoo)

I've seen too many bad things that I can't keep count
He loves one thing more than himself
His crown (crown)
Knowing what I know now
Knowing what I know now (hoo-ha-hoo)

The good in him, I've watched it melt
I was fooled by the love I felt
So profound
Knowing what I know

I know (hoo)

I know (ha)

We know now (hoo)

Knowing what we know now

This Wish (Reprise)

(Ariana DeBose, Wish)

So I look out at the stars just like me
And I'm begging you to see this as a sign
'Cause I know that if you choose to stand beside me
We'll be greater than all his magic combined

So I make this wish
So I make this wish
So I make this wish
So I make this wish

To have something more for us than this

We've had generations of expectations
Wondering why, and wondering when
We're past dipping our toes in
We know it's do or die, it's sink or swim

We were all confusing your promises for protection
But we know what we've gotta do
Hope unchanging, with our wish held high
The way you've always taught us to

So I look out at the stars just like me
And throw caution to every warning sign
What we do in this moment is defining
And we can take it on if we ally

So I make this wish
To have something more for us than this
So I make this wish
To have something more for us than this

A Wish Worth Making

(Julia Michaels)

Take it from someone like me
When your hopes are in despair
If your desires have strings
Free them, give them some air

'Cause any wish that's got your heart
On the edge of breaking
Is a wish worth making

Yeah, everybody dreams
To be something someday somewhere
Even kings and queens
Daydream to be free from their royal chairs

Well, any dream that's got your heart
Even when you're not sleeping
Is a dream worth dreaming

Yeah, we all start as wildlings
Playing in the sun
Then we grow up with wild dreams
Just waiting for our day to come

So if hope schemes against time
Tell them, "be nice, play fair"
Yeah, they may kick and cry, yeah
But just show them they're better when paired

'Cause if they both can hold your heart
There's no way you're not sowing
A dream that will never stop growing

Yeah, any wish that's got your heart
On the edge of breaking
Is a wish worth making
