Hey everyone :D

We're making great progress with this project and various songs :) But we need a little more organisation so these songs can really start coming together.

Please post JUST your lyrics & raps in this thread, as some peoples lyrics are getting lost in the other thread.

remember, no talking so it doesn't get all confusing again :)

Thank you, its all for L.O.V.E
 
Tell me why is it sometimes so hard to live? (hard to live)
Tell me why is it sometimes harder to give? (tell me why)
Tell me why we can't just go help Haiti?
And tell me how can I help them? It's makin' me crazy!
Tell me why nature sometimes is so bad? (so bad)
Tell me why does nature make somethin' like that?
All our brothers and sisters, they start to go mad (goin' mad)
And when I see this on tv it's just makin' me sad! (make me sad)

Some lyrics I wrote now.. I hope you like it :):

I want you, To be safe..
Don´t shed a tear, I´m right here..
It´s going to be okay.
Hold my hand,
We will get this through.
This LOVE building up,
Just seems to break out..
Don´t lose hope,
Until you can touch the sky..
Let´s fill this sadness,
With joy and happiness.

Be strong, Hold on,
Keep the faith
Keep Believing.

Open up your hearts,
Lend out a helping hand,
Share your soul,
It´s time to become one with all,
Like our angel once said,
Heal the world, make the pain go away,
Touch a heart, wake up the LOVE inside.
The tearstains on the ground,
The fallen smiles,
For you I can walk a thousand miles..
Just to see you smile again.
 
What Can I Do?

I’m done with sitting back
And watching it happen
I’m gonna do what I can
And try and make it better.
This world’s become a mess
I’m gotta make it better.

There’s people dieing
In the street,
While I sit by the fire.
It ain’t right that I’m here,
While they fight for their life’s
I think its time to ask

Chorus
What can I do?
To help you get through this
What can I do?
I do anything you ask
What can I do?
I’ll sail the 7 seas
What can I do?
To help you

Its seems that half of us
Don’t even give a damn.
There’s people dieing,
And they need our help.
Get up and get out
And just o what you can
Ohhh

Chorus


Earthquakes, Volcanoes, Tsunamis
There killing our brothers,
Our mothers,
Our sisters,
Our fathers,
Put yourself in their shoes
And you will see
How this could affect you and me
So you think you could handle,
Being torn apart family.
Well if you don’t
Why don’t you help those who have been?

What can I do for you?
My brother
When you need some help
Just call my name
I’m here for you
Whenever you need me.

One More Life

Starting over with the hands of thousands
With the compassion of the nations, from the east to west
The worlds doing its best to help those in need
So we’re here pleading to you, give a little more, save one more

We're here for you, we'll warm up your hearts as the night ceases the fight for life

Ok, this has been written in only a couple of minutes, so there can be some mistakes. If so, I apologize, but for now, I don't have enough spare time to write something decent. It's still missing a last part though.

Here it is:

Can you imagine?


It's time to open your eyes
and start looking around you
Notice the child that cries
Because he just lost his mommy too.

People are struggling to stay alive,
Nothing to drink and so hungry.
All they want is a chance to survive,
To be reunited with their family.

*Can you imagine?*

Having no roof above your head
Living in streets filled with blood
Being surrounded by the dead
And once, that was your neighbourhood.

*Can you imagine?*

If we act as a unity,
If we start working together,
Then we do have the ability,
to make things better.

Don't live in ignorance
Don't refuse to see reality
Even when it happens from a distance
These people count on humanity

And now the time has come
to help the ones in need
It doesn't matter where you're from
Together we will succeed.

*Can you imagine?*

Having no roof above your head
Living in streets filled with blood
Being surrounded by the dead
And once, that was your neighbourhood.

*Can you imagine?*

If we act as a unity,
If we start working together,
Then we do have the ability,
to make things better.

Okie, sent this to Birchey, but haven't gotten a reply? :unsure:

Anyway, Guess I'll put it here too. It goes with his song.



Okay, so...

This is just a rough version of an idea I had, maybe? It kinda' goes in a different direction than your other lyrics, different theme. I only thought of it because of Michael's interest in military stuff, coupled with his affectionate nickname for us. ("Army of Love") It's totally okay if it's not something that interests you, but I just thought I'd offer it up. It goes with your demo.


Gather up your troops,
one and all unite,
Gonna meet together
help to ease the plight

Setting forth tonight,
Sending all our soldiers
to fight the good fight,
armed with these instructions

Stop
Look around
this world is crying
Reach
your hand
towards
some
one

Calling on our (for an?) army
Army of Love
L.O.V.E.
From above

*We'll raise our voices
Send out the word
L-O-V-E
Will be heard.

*alternatives
(Pass on the message,
We will be heard,
L.O.V.E.
is the word.)

(We'll raise our voices
So we'll be heard
L-O-V-E
is the word.)

My Apologies, I was trying to rush people into working with me on the song but I had to go to London on an emergency yesterday, but am here in full flight now! I am loving the lyrics, I think it would be a great and very new thing to do, if we change the first line of each chorus everytime :)

Also Sidewalk that paragraph you wrote was fantastic, Something immediately came into my head! What if we use that as a spoken intro with some soft music behind it and have everyone read one line with the voices fading into eachother? Because then we could also hear all the different accents of people to make it a more Universal, worldly feel?

If you want to do it mate, go ahead :) I'm looking forward to hearing the track, thank you for working so hard on it! Michael would be proud.

Oooh , A spoken intro !! That's a great idea!! :D
 
*hope someone likes it

How I urged all the crossroads
To end and then meet up
How the hearts of the diving
Fireflies...
Light up

Is the cause a rather blatant one?
Or could we make it the single meaning...
held by millions
could be make it so we're not screaming?

I'll add a single word of pleasure
While you stroll by in your content leisure
It is not the doers but the deed
it is the hands that plant the seed

forward ways the gaze extend
lend out a hand and the waters will calm
if we're to change the world one day
then let us humble our souls...
and let us pray

why hurdles occur
I do not know
but why do we hurt
Nature so?
look what arises from all these wrongs
do you feel the pain of our songs?

the world may end in just a blink
would you just for once think?
as you laugh and say things in passing
there are so many just lifelessly...

passing.

End the torture.
End the hate.
This is all for love.
Make your spirits great.

We can help the
Downtrodden
God, we have not forgotten
We can cure the diseases
So that life never ceases

No, love never ceases.

I like it :) but it doesn't really convey the message of help and support for the Haiti victims
 
This army, This unity
L.O.V.E
We wish for comfort
In this total mess..
This hurt this pain
It feels like a black hole.
We´ll give you the warmth
The strength, The things which went..
You are like the stars,
Your light may be weakened,
Because you´re far away,
I´ll bring you closer,
So you can shine.
Don´t disarray




I´m sorry if the lyrics doesn´t convey the message... I just came up with this in 5 minutes .:angel:

If someone hurts you,
They hurt me..
Fill that pain,
With sun, not rain (?) :lol:
