Say, say

Didn't think I needed you
Never seemed to
Now I'm living proof
And now I'm brand new
Rename me
Baby, you can claim me
I've been changed, see
You make me over
You make me over
Didn't think I needed you
Never seemed to
Now I'm living proof (living proof)

Nothing I'll ever say or do
will be as good as loving you
[4x]

You make me high [4x]
You make me high (And I don't wanna come down) [4x]

Didn't think I needed you
Never seemed to
Now I'm living proof
And now I'm brand new
Rename me
Baby, you can claim me
I've been changed, see
You make me over
You make me over
Didn't think I needed you
Never seemed to
Now I'm living proof (living proof)

Nothing I'll ever say or do
will be as good as loving you
[4x]

You make me high [4x]
You make me high (And I don't wanna come down) [4x]
You make me

Just like the sky
Like the 4th of July
[4x]

[Intro:]
We are all running in a race
To find everything that you searching for is right there

[Chorus:]
Your love is blinding, I'm already home
The lights are shining, I'm already home

[Verse 1:]
Who can you trust when you can't trust yourself
So I made a vow, in my faith only you I'll follow

[Chorus:]
Your love is blinding, I'm already home
The lights are shining, I'm already home

[Verse 2:]
I'm not worthy, never could be that, I know
But somehow in spite of me you're always there to hold

[Chorus:]
Your love is blinding, I'm already home
The lights are shining, I'm already home

[Bridge:]
I can be a mess, I'm reckless & it shows
But with you I close my eyes and let you take control
Damn, Damn, Damn, Damn

[Chorus:]
Your love is blinding, I'm already home
The lights are shining, I'm already home

I was walking, was living
My melody was acapella
There's a beat I was missing
No tune or a scale I could play

No sound in the distance
No orchestra playing together
Like a boat out to sea
The silence was too deafening

So come and revive me
I can't feel my heartbeat
It's just me surviving alone

Before you my whole life was acapella
Now a symphony's the only song to sing
Before you my whole life was acapella
Now a symphony's the only song to sing

Everything was the same
One color was just like the others
An assembly routine
My memories were all black and white

Till I stopped over-thinking
Decided to draw back the curtains
And I cleared all the cobwebs
And began to let in the light

So come and revive me
I can't feel my heartbeat
Just me surviving alone

Before you my whole life was acapella
Now a symphony's the only song to sing
Before you my whole life was acapella
Now a symphony's the only song to sing

You're the drum in my heartbeat
Bass and guitar lead
Stuck on the notes you play
My heart that you play on
Red like a crayon
I can't walk away

You're the drum in my heartbeat
Bass and guitar lead
Stuck on the notes you play
My heart that you play on
Red like a crayon
I can't walk away

You're the drum in my heartbeat
Bass and guitar lead
Stuck on the notes you play
My heart that you play on
Red like a crayon
I can't walk away

Before you my whole life was acapella
Now a symphony's the only song to sing
Before you my whole life was acapella
Now a symphony's the only song to sing

Before you my whole life was acapella
Now a symphony's the only song to sing
Before you my whole life was acapella
Now a symphony's the only song to sing

been running in place for such a long time
stuck in a race in the wrong line
when it all came down on me
and i haven't had faith in such a long time
am i outta place? or outta my mind?
should it all fall down on me?

it's not enough to live so just dream
it's not enough to live so just dream
it's not enough to live so just dream
it's not enough to say so just.. scream

you'll never know if you don't let it out.
you've had enough, don't call your bluff
you can't back down lost in a crowd.
you've won the right to scream and shout
don't talk about 'you've lost your cool'
there is no point who makes the rules
so let's get to it
now you'll do it.
break out
scream and shout
scream and shout
scream and shout

been running in place for such a long time
stuck in a race in the wrong line
when it all came down on me
and i haven't had faith in such a long time
am i outta place? or outta my mind?
should it all fall down on me?

it's not enough to live so just dream
it's not enough to live so just dream
it's not enough to live so just dream
it's not enough to say so just.. scream

sound the alarm,
raise your arms
you're on your own
but not alone
make cities got you on the ground,
afraid to fight, don't make a sound
so let's get to it
now you'll prove it.
push back
scream and shout
scream and shout
scream and shout
scream and shout

been running in place for such a long time
stuck in a race in the wrong line
when it all came down on me
and i haven't had faith in such a long time
am i outta place? or outta my mind?
should it all fall down on me?

it's not enough to live so just dream
it's not enough to live so just dream
it's not enough to live so just dream
it's not enough to say so just.. scream

Let me tell you what love is
It's when you meet each other halfway
I'm en route

[Chorus]
Emancipate yourself [x4]
Emancipate yourself [x4]
Emancipate yourself [x4]
Emancipate yourself [x4]

Look in your own mirror and know who you are
Live your life accordingly the truth is on your arm
And it's good, baby
You've done good, baby

Be just who you are make no apologies
And when it's said and done who's really sorry
You're ok, baby
It's ok, baby

[Chorus]

Dare to be a better you each chance you get
We're all human and fall short and nothing's over yet
It's up to you, baby
Give 'em you, baby

Life's too short to waste your time do what you love
Don't be ashamed it's better have peace by a dove
Give 'em you, baby
Give 'em room, baby

[Chorus]

Like the pheonix from the ashes
Or a sunrise off in the distance
I'll try again, I'll try again
I'll try again, we'll try again

Like the pheonix from the ashes
Or a sunrise off in the distance
I'll try again, I'll try again
I'll try again, we'll try again

[Chorus]

I'm not ashamed of winning
But it wasn't that way in the beginning
It was this way
It was kiss me
Come kick me and diss me
I had to give it up
Now it's a way different feeling
You took my soul I had to steer it back
Now it's this way
Now it's with me
No mistake just listen
I had to give a **

All of this pain you had given
It's just a reminder of livin
It was crazy, had a baby
He's amazin, he saved me
And this time it's just us
You raised up, I can say that
I was too young, I'll never get that back

Now it's this way
Now it's flipped babe
I'm happy, just listen
I had to give a **

[Chorus]
I was super cool
But now I'm super strong
I had nothing to loose
But I was super wrong
It was the circumstance
I got the power from
I was super tough
But now I'm super strong
Super strong

I'm a braveheart
I'm a braveheart
I'm a braveheart
So come and pin my purple heart
Come and pin my purple heart
Come and pin my purple heart
I didn't run

[Chorus x2]

So I'm writing this letter to you, baby.
Just like my mother told me.
She always said say yes before you say no and say maybe.

See I never sugar coat any life lessons for you,
'cause I wanna make you equipped for the best.
And I can't always be here to rescue you when life gets crazy.

But I love you more than you'll ever know.
With you love never dies.
With you love never dies.
'Cause I love you more than you'll ever know.
I love you more than you'll ever know.
I love you more than you'll ever know.
I love you more than you'll ever know.
I love you more than you'll ever know.

No I can't promise to have all the answers to all of your questions.
But I'll never lie and I'll raise you without; not an obsession.

See I never sugar coat any life lessons for you,
'cause I wanna make you equipped for the best.
And I can't always be here to rescue you when life gets crazy.

But I love you more than you'll ever know.
With you love never dies.
With you love never dies.
'Cause I love you more than you'll ever know.
I love you more than you'll ever know.
I love you more than you'll ever know.
I love you more than you'll ever know.
I love you more than you'll ever know.

You can do it if you try.
You can do it if you try.
You can do it if you try, try.
You can do it if you try.
You can do it if you try.
You can do it if you try.
You can do it if you try, try.
You can do it if you try.
