Song 04 : Say

Yippee...! Project 2007 was finally finished in August 2007 and I decided to name it Back To Square One. After a year of writing songs (some of which, if not all, might seem crappy to most of you but at least to me, it is some sort of personal accomplishment and I'm proud of each and every one of it). So for the next few weeks, I will put up the list of songs with its lyrics that I have completed. ( I even came up with tunes for each and every one of them. Not that great, but at least I put an effort). There are a total of 14 songs. ( I wrote about almost 50 songs (half of them uncompleted) but I decided to only keep 14 in my little treasure box (aka CPU))
The first song that I am going to blog is entitled Say. It is Song 04. I wrote this song a few weeks ago in hope that it could bring my own spirit up at the same time bring other people's spirit up as well. These days, we don't hear the words quite enough. Words that makes us feel like a million bucks. Since noone is willing to say it, why don't we say it ourselves?

SAY

Waiting for the words unspoken
But everyone's too busy lingering their wounds
So we're stuck in this sad place smiling

No one's willing to give a hand
Cause no one really understands
No matter how hard you try and explain

Screw everyone else
It's time to save yourself
Put on your superman cape
And say these words out loud with me

Chorus:
No one's going to hold me down
I won't be pushed around
This is my life, my stars are alligning, my time is now.
Say I will pull it through
If it's the last thing I'll ever do
This is my life, I'm proud of it, I have no shame.
Just say these words again
Over and over again

Say
The more that you
Say
The more you believe it

Stars on the pages of magazine
Makes you feel you're worth nothing
No matter how hard you try, you can never be that thin

Posters lying around, trying to put people down
All those slogans makes no sense
And the commercial's just pretend

Screw everyone else
It's time to lift yourself
Launch your spirits high
Just repeat all these words with me

Chorus:
No one's going to hold me down
I won't be pushed around
This is my life, my stars are alligning, my time is now.
Say I will pull it through
If it's the last thing I'll ever do
This is my life, I'm proud of it, I have no shame.
Just say these words again
Over and over again

Say
Over and over again
Say
Hear the words as you say

Bridge:
Some friends kicking you when you're down
And your parents won't always be around
Who's going to fix your broken wings right now
At this desperate time of need, only one man can be your hero
And that is you yourself, so say these words out loud with me

Chorus:
No one's going to hold me down
I won't be pushed around
This is my life, my stars are alligning, my time is now.
Say I will pull it through
If it's the last thing I'll ever do
This is my life, I'm proud of it, I have no shame.
Just say these words again
Over and over again

Say
The more that you say
Say
The more you believe it
Say
The words again and again
Say
I know I'm worth it
