Say Something

I learned a thing or two from my mama

Oh yeah-yeah-yeah

She believed in God and good karma (Yeah-yeah-yeah)

She said, "We can make a change, yeah, we got to try

To leave a better world on the day that we die

Or at least we can go down fighting"

Oh yeah-yeah-yeah

So here I go

I'm waking up to the power of words and the weight of love

And yes, I know words ain't enough

But when the silence becomes so dangerous

We gotta say something, say something, say something, say something

Say it loud, say it loud, now

Say something, say something, say something, say something

Say it loud, say it loud, now

Bidin' my time, bitin' my tongue

Waitin' for the perfect moment but it never comes

When I get close, I close up

Intimacy's so hard for me and I get stuck

But I don't wanna be like my father was

Scared to rock the boat, never speaking up

I wanna live my truths wide open

Oh yeah-yeah-yeah

So here I go

I'm waking up to the power of words and the weight of love

And yes, I know words ain't enough

But when the silence becomes so dangerous

We gotta say something, say something, say something, say something

Say it loud, say it loud, now

Say something, say something, say something, say something

Say it loud, say it loud, now

We're all running out of time

I've got to let go of my pride

'Cause someday I won't be around

I wanna leave my heart sung out loud

So here I go

I'm waking up to the power of words and the weight of love

And yes, I know words ain't enough

But when the silence becomes so dangerous

We gotta say something, say something, say something, say something

Say it loud, say it loud, now

Say something, say something, say something, say something

Say it loud, say it loud, now

Say something, say something, say something, say something

Say it loud, say it loud, now

Say something, say something, say something, say something

Say it loud, say it loud, now
