Monologue (Intro)
01:16

|
||
|
I used to be caged in, by revelry,
And what other people thought of me,
Yearning to please and make others happy,
And be what others wanted me to be.
I was beautiful to them, but truly,
I was discontented with me.
But what does God say about me?
“My child, it is for freedom that I have set you free”
So unlock these doors and uncage this bird,
Because I will fly and I will sing.
And I wonder if people will listen to me?
But then I remember…. it’s not about me.
It’s about the song that I sing.
Because sometimes Life’s greatest melodies
come from the hidden birds in the springtime trees-
No one’s caged them in or clipped their wings,
or tried to mold them into something they shouldn’t be.
They exist to sing.
So like these birds, so frail, so weak,
My strength is in my melody,
And no one can take that away from me.
This once caged bird is now flying free,
And you might hear her on the breeze,
Because she has a voice.
She exists to sing.

Verse 1
Its been a long time,
Feels like I’m forgetting your face,
I hope you doing fine,
Just know that I’m doing okay
I know you’re happy now,
Im praying what you’re feeling will last,
Forever more,
I’ll make you proud,
And I will let this pain just pass,
Pre-Chorus:
Im focused on my own,
Washed away all my tears,
Though I know that you’re gone,
I’m still wishing you were here,
But I’ll be moving on,
Cause one thing to me is clear,
People may come and go,
But love won’t just disappear,
Chorus:
I remember those days when we were just fine
Never had a doubt,
Never crossed my mind,
Even though now I be missing you,
I’ll be staying strong,
I will see this through
I will live on,
Verse 2:
Its been a long time,
Feels like I’ve forgotten your smile,
And I Try not to cry,
But damn,
Its been a long while,
SInce you went away,
But I know you in a better place,
Still I wish you stayed,
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
But I know you rather hear me say,
Pre-Chorus:
Im focused on my own,
Washed away all my tears,
Though I know that you’re gone,
I’m still wishing you were here,
But I’ll be moving on,
Cause one thing to me is clear,
People may come and go,
But love won’t just disappear,
Chorus:
I remember those days when we were just fine
Never had a doubt,
Never crossed my mind,
Even though now I be missing you,
I’ll be staying strong,
I will see this through
I will live on,
3rd Verse:
Its been a long time,
Oh the things I wouldn’t give
Just to see you once more
This life its really hard to live,
(Bridge)
Never know just how long we have,
Life seems fleeting, in this world so sad,
So Cherish each moment,
Baby share each laugh,
So when that day comes,
It will live on...
Chorus:
I remember those days when we were just fine
Never had a doubt,
Never crossed my mind,
Even though now I be missing you,
I’ll be staying strong,
I will see this through
I will live on,
(Outro)
I remember those days when we were just fine
Never had a doubt,
Never crossed my mind,
Even though now I be missing you,
I’ll be staying strong,
I will see this through
I will live on,

(Chorus)
So light up the night sky, just like a firefly
Spread Your wings
Don’t let the fear of this big world keep you from shining baby
(Verse 1)
And this is for the people
Who can’t get out of their bed today
You’re thinking that your life’s a mess
And you’re wondering what people say
Well I’m here to tell you, you’ve got a purpose
And your life’s too short to live that way
So won’t you listen now to what I’ve got to say
(Pre-chorus)
No matter how deep or how dark,
Just think of something that’s so small
And how that little light inspires so much awe
(Chorus)
So light up the night sky, just like a firefly
Spread your wings
Don’t let the fear of this big world
Keep you from shining baby (2x)
(Verse 2)
And this is for all my friends in this industry
The pressure t perform and be what others expect from you can be crippling
You can only be what you are meant to be
And you gotta be happy (yeah you gotta be happy)
You’ve got a voice and a vision
Now all you have to do is sing
So lay your soul on the table
You gotta know that you’re able
And when that fear kicks in
Just kick it to the curb and keep moving forward
(Pre-chorus)
No matter how deep or how dark,
Just think of something that’s so small
And how that little light inspires so much awe
(Chorus)
So light up the night sky, just like a firefly
Spread your wings
Don’t let the fear of this big world
Keep you from shining baby (2x)
(Bridge)
You’re not alone,
There’s strength in numbers, let’s shine together
And sing this song,
We’ll light up the whole world, light up the whole world (4x)
(Chorus – during last 2 of bridge)
So light up the night sky, just like a firefly
Spread your wings
Don’t let the fear of this big world
Keep you from shining baby (2x)

This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it shine (3x)
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine
Hide it under a bush? Oh no! I'm gonna let it shine (3x)
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine
Don't let satan (blow) it out, I'm gonna let it shine (3x)
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine

Why do we keep hurting each other?
Since when did pride become my best friend?
Trying to appear like we have it all together,
we buy fancy cars to mask that we are broken within
And we hurt the ones we love
We snap at strangers sitting next to us on the bus
People destroy others just to build up their own pride
Putting others down to feel better inside
And I see children dying
I see fathers crying
I see cheated on spouses scorned and spying
I see chronic pain
I see chronic shame
You hurt me, I hurt you
Now there’s chronic disdain
It’s not about what they can do
All of this right here, it falls on me and you
We just needs to give more grace
Every single one of us is in this human race
And we can all make mistakes
But we can all make a change
And treat others well in what we do and say
We just need to have more grace
We all live in the world
We can take a stand for our fellow man
And we can live for the world
Yes, we can live for the world.

(1st verse)
I remember all the things you said,
And all of the pain that you’ve caused,
And now the day has finally come,
Where you and me are finally done,
And I won’t even look back,
No I refuse to run,
I'm gonna keep on moving forward,
Marching to that rising sun,
(Pre-Chorus)
Cause that's where I need to be,
Baby up in the sky,
Away from you please,
(Hook)
Away from these lies, yeah,
Away from these lies
(2nd verse)
I thought it was just me and you,
I thought this love was also true,
I guess it wasn't meant to be,
But I know there's someone meant for me,
So I won’t even look back,
No i refuse to run,
I'm gonna keep on moving forward,
Marching to that rising sun,
(Pre-Chorus)
Cause that's where I need to be,
Baby up in the sky,
Away from you please,
(Hook)
Away from these lies, yeah,
Away from these lies
(Nobi verse)
(Hook)
Away from these lies, yeah,
Away from these lies
(Outro)
It don't matter what state I'm in,
It don't matter what day it is
It don't matter just who I'm with,
I’ll be Okay
It don't matter if I'm on my own,
It don't matter cuz you're finally gone,
It don't matter cuz I'll be strong,
Ill be Okay, I’ll be Okay

(Verse 1)
I know everything that You do,
Is for the best, for me and You,
So if You ever hear me cry,
It’s for the joy I’ve deep inside,
Cause You have given me,
A reason just to be,
And thats Love,
And thats Love,
I know some may try to fight,
Their darkness blinds Your light,
But You're here within my life,
And that’s a Truth I won’t deny,
You’ve grown this strength in me,
Your Grace, You’ve set me free,
This is why I just believe,
Never question this faith,
I could never leave,
And though at times I’ve been wronged here,
I know You never did me wrong yeah,
You told me to hold on yeah,
And ever since Ive been strong,
I’ve gotten through this pain,
Cause one thing never changed,
And that’s Love,
And that’s Love,
So I will hold on with the best of my ability,
You’re my sense of Truth, the core of my humility,
You’re my sense of Hope, whenever there is fear in me,
Speaking here for those, whoever who could feel with me,
And understand, my passion for Your Greatness,
Light this candle just to have our midnight conversations,
Where You guide me, beyond those constellations,
To reach You I only need one thing,
And that’s Love….
And that’s Love….
That’s Love..
