Born for This
Lyon County Emergency Communications Center

We are proud to be a 911 Communication Specialists—a steady voice behind the scenes, standing strong in the silence between chaos and response. We are the Gold line, connecting the Red of fire, the Blue of law enforcement, and the White of EMS, holding it all together when seconds matter most. We may not wear a badge or race to the scene, but our presence is felt in every calm word, every guided breath, and every saved life. It’s not just a job—it’s a calling, and we wear the headset with pride. We are the heartbeat of hope, and we were BORN FOR THIS.
I put on the headset, silence the doubt
Time to be steady and strong
When someone breaks down, I don’t fall apart
I guide them, I keep them holding on
I know I was born for this
I know I was born for this
I know I was born for this
I may not wear the uniform
But I stand behind the fight
But I stand behind the fight
With every call, I send the help
I’m the strength behind the mic
I’m the strength behind the mic
I don’t need a spotlight
My strength is in my voice
I bring order to the storm
My strength is in my voice
I bring order to the storm
I know, I was born for this
I know, I was born for this
I know, I was born for this
I believe, I believe we can change the story
I believe, I believe we stand in glory
I believe, I believe we stand in glory
We are the voices calm in chaos and the strain
Answering calls for help, we ease the pain
Standing strong, standing tall, standing proud
We were born for this, we will thrive in this
Answering calls for help, we ease the pain
Standing strong, standing tall, standing proud
We were born for this, we will thrive in this
We are the lifelines steady throughout the night and day
Holding strength together when hope fades away
Standing strong, standing tall, standing proud
We were born for this, we will thrive in this
Holding strength together when hope fades away
Standing strong, standing tall, standing proud
We were born for this, we will thrive in this
We’ve heard the distress over the air
Sent help through broken sound
Kept calm when units called for code
Held the line and stood our ground
Sent help through broken sound
Kept calm when units called for code

I know, I was born for this
I know, I was born for this
I know, I was born for this
I will never lose my voice
Even when the tones deploy
Even when the tones deploy
I know, I was born for this
I know, I was born for this

I believe, I believe we can change the story
I believe, I believe we stand in glory

Holding strength together when hope fades away
Standing strong, standing tall, standing proud
We were born for this, we will thrive in this
We were born for this, we will thrive in this
These words are for those who live in the noise
On the phone and across the air
Every call you take, every key of the mic
Proves again that you still care
