Heard this song when I was watching 'Despicable Me 2" in the theatre last year. Gru, the ex-super villain, was dancing to this song when he was basking in the air of love. It's kinda catchy and it grew on me. Took me awhile to find this song, and I super-like the lyrics. This song never fails to make me smile and I could get up from my seat and dance happily to it (Again, when no one is around me)
We each have our own definitions of "happiness", and envision them differently. Embrace that differences, and please do not insist on others to believe and to lead what you think is good for them.
Clap along with Pharrell Williams, and listen to the lyrics closely.
P.S. Make sure you enjoy the full 7 minutes ya *wiNk*
I have been listening to Sara Bareilles "Brave" for a while, and I find it very liberating for my troubled soul, well... it could be an overstatement, probably a song to cheer me up, a sing-along song, something to walk me out of my tangled moments at work.
I could just stand up in my office, twirl and turn, with my hands up, of course with no one around. I like the way how the uplifting lyrics speaks to me, sometimes holding back my tongue and my thoughts does not do me any justice. I hate the aggressive passiveness in me. I guess it's really to strike a balance, I would rather pain myself than to be blantly truthful, which might hurt others.
Well, this song is for you, enjoy :)
In case you wanna sing along to it, here are the lyrics;
You can be amazing You can turn a phrase into a weapon or a drug You can be the outcast Or be the backlash of somebody’s lack of love Or you can start speaking up
Nothing’s gonna hurt you the way that words do When they settle ‘neath your skin Kept on the inside and no sunlight Sometimes a shadow wins But I wonder what would happen if you
Say what you wanna say And let the words fall out Honestly I wanna see you be brave With what you want to say And let the words fall out Honestly I wanna see you be brave
I just want to see you (x3) I wanna see you be brave
I just wanna see you (x3) I wanna see you be brave
Everybody’s been there, Everybody’s been stared down by the enemy Fallen for the fear And done some disappearing, Bow down to the mighty Don’t run, just stop holding your tongue
Maybe there’s a way out of the cage where you live Maybe one of these days you can let the light in Show me how big your brave is
Say what you wanna say And let the words fall out Honestly I wanna see you be brave With what you want to say And let the words fall out Honestly I wanna see you be brave
And since your history of silence Won’t do you any good, Did you think it would? Let your words be anything but empty Why don’t you tell them the truth?
Say what you wanna say And let the words fall out Honestly I wanna see you be brave With what you want to say And let the words fall out Honestly I wanna see you be brave
I just wanna see you (x3) I wanna see you be brave
