Making this entry right now gives me so much joy because I had actually thought I wouldn't be able to due to an health issue I had through this week... But here I am doing the best I could for what I love doing... Singing.
This week's theme "Prejudice" had me thinking really hard on songs I know if they fall into it's category. You won't believe that I had been practicing a new song I found out about until yesterday but changed my mind about the song... Didn’t want to sound unprepared.
So maybe I'll sing that song someday here. For now, let's focus on the song I finally chose to use in sharing my view of the week's theme.
A song I got to know from a movie titled "Rags" and this movie showed how sad a musician could be if not allowed to do their music in the way they can and make impact.
Who says what musicians wear is as important as what they sing?
They are musicians obviously, that means their songs come first and they should be allowed to express themselves in their music. The movie show how a young musician stood up to her father and changed his belief about her as a musician with more of fashion sense and updates.
The song "Look at me" is all about her proving to the world that she's a better musician than what they think she is and their belief won't change her... The song also points to all who feel less or unimportant to take a bold step and prove the world wrong.
Beauty in the mirror
You see what I see
I can see all that you want from me
I hear something strong, yeah!
It sounds like my name
But if I answer
Are you talking to me?
You say the sun's brighter
The moonlights behind ya
The world's a playground
Pick a ride and you'll see
Sometimes you'll go up and
Sometimes you'll go down then
Sometimes you must fly
So that you can be free
When you feel you took your last breath
I promise you got more left
There's a chance if you take it
Don't be afraid to just dance
Look, look at me now! (Look at me now)
I'm starting to be stronger
There's no time to stop now, no!
Oh! I'm touching the clouds
I'm flying higher and higher
I'm not trying to come down
Can you look at me now?
Can you look at me now?
Nothing's impossible
The spark is in you
Light up the whole world
And just look, look, look at me now
When I look up at the stars
Even though they maybe far away
It's OK, I can reach them
Won't ever change who I am
I'll make the world understand me
From beginning to end, to end!
Oooohhhh!
Look, look at me now! (Look at me now)
I'm starting to be stronger
There's no time to stop now, no!
Oh! I'm touching the clouds (I'm touching the clouds)
I'm flying higher and higher
I'm not trying to come down
Can you look at me now?
Can you look at me now?
Nothing's impossible
The spark is in you
Light up the whole world
And just look, look, look at me now
