[Verse 1]
They had turned upon him, left him in the cold
Broken soul and ripped up heart, buried in the snow ,
Whitewashed, feelings burning, in his head he turned them in
How much love had hurt him, no one else would know

[Pre-Chorus]
But he got better and better, tried to go further and further, to defend, on his own
He got stronger and stronger, lit up the fire the fire, on his strength, alone

[Chorus]
Running in the middle of the night, no sleep
All alone he’s powerful
On his own, invincible
Fighting day and night just for his life, wild beast
All alone he’s powerful
On his own, invincible

[Verse 2]
Prowling through the forest, dark like haunted breeze
Torn apart like fabric, brought down to his knees
Tried to put him in his place, but he broke the chains they tied him in
Pray that they regret it, what they did to him

*Repeat Pre-Chorus
*Repeat Chorus

[Verse 1]

Step outside, look around

Feel the sun, upon the ground

Hear the birds, see the sky

Life’s a gift, don’t pass it by

[Chorus]

Thank you for the love that I’ve seen

For the Earth (for the Earth), for the sky (for the sky)

For the sun (for the sun), for the rain (for the rain)

For the joy, and the gain

[Verse 2]

 Kindest words, hands held tight

 Walk under, the diamond sky

 Every inch, every mile

 Love shows in every smile

 [Chorus]

 Thank you for the love that I’ve seen

 For the Earth (for the Earth), for the sky (for the sky)

For the sun (for the sun), for the rain (for the rain)

For the joy, and the gain

Thank you for the hope – lights my way

 For the stars (for the stars), for the moon (for the moon)

 For the dreams (for the dreams), and the strength

 For the love that sets me free

Through this song, we hope to inspire others to take a break, step outside, and notice the blessings in their lives. We believe that by expressing appreciation more often, we can make the world a kinder and warmer place. Gratitude brings joy and strengthens relationships. Your parents gave you life, your friends support you, and your teachers guide you—each deserves your thanks.

[Instrumental Introduction]

[Verse 1]

I was still young

Still in Primary School

Thought I was cool

But I was just a fool

All my friends, laughed at me

When I said I want to make Music

But I held my drumsticks

And played a beat that was sick

 [Chorus]

 Music is a magical place

 Where you can take your time and find your place

 Music will leave you amazed

 There’s lot’s of things that you can showcase

 [Instrumental interlude]

[Verse 2]

My friends saw me making music

And their jaws dropped like a flaming candlestick

I looked at them and I did not break

Did not think that was a mistake

[Pre-Chorus]

I just keep playing and playing

While they’re looking and looking

The music in my head is appearing

I just keep playing and playing

While they’re looking and looking

Did not think about failing

[Repeat Chorus]

[Electric guitar solo]

[Repeat Chorus]

[verse 1]

the skies are turning grey,

my life is in a haze.

scattered pages, half-read signs,

the road ahead has no straight lines.

[pre-chorus]

look to the lively skies,

the birds are soaring really high.

maybe someday I’ll understand,

that I’m enough for who I am.

[chorus]

あなたの確認は必要ありません

(I don’t need to wait for your confirmation)

私は信じている

(I believe)

[verse 2]

some days shine and some fade,

but every step’s a choice I made.

chasing dreams that come and go,

but I keep going don’t you know.

*repeat pre-chorus and chorus

Singapore is my home

I love it a lot

What about you?

There are many places to see.

We are a garden and a smart city.

We have many interesting places to see.

[Chorus]

Gardens by the bay you can see many rare plants

Changi Airports a beautiful airport you can see and dance

Jurong you can camp, give it a chance

Marina Bay Sands, Singapore in a glance

[Verse 1]

I wake up in the morning,

hearing the birds sing

Feeling the wonderful breeze,

it puts me at ease

[Chorus]

So, smile today, smile everyday

Let it guide you through everything.

For it that curves upon your face,

Lies love, joy and endless grace.

[Verse 2]

From minutes to hours,

From days to weeks, I smile.

Another day, another chance to

fill the world with smiles.

Repeat [Chorus]

The verses talk about moments when we feel unsure or not good enough. But the chorus is the reminder: every hand, even yours and mine, is powerful and grand. It’s not just about helping others, it’s about walking together, hand in hand, no matter what.

This song is for anyone who’s ever felt like they don’t matter. You do. Your hand matters. And maybe, just maybe, your hand can be the one that lifts someone up.

[Verse 1]

Standing in the middle of nowhere

Thinking about giving up

Leaving doubts behind

Life is a road to go through

[Chorus]

Not giving up cause of challenges

Doubts disappearing slowly

Challenge fading into thin air

Like bad thoughts disappearing

[Verse 2]

Wanna stop and breathe a while

Bumps along the way

Overcoming the challenges

Going through everything

[Chorus]

Not giving up cause of challenges

Doubts disappearing slowly

Challenge fading into thin air

Like bad thoughts disappearing

[Verse 1]

Sometimes you may feel small and have doubt.

When you look at your hands,

There’s nothing but air?

Everyone has fits of being down and out.

[Chorus]

For every hand is powerful and grand,

Reach out to help those who need a hand.

Forward we go, hand in hand,

For even your hand is powerful and grand.

[Verse 2]

Sometimes you may feel not enough for anything.

When you look into the mirror,

There’s no one but yourself.

Everyone faces time through a difficult string.

[Chorus]

For every hand is powerful and grand,

Reach out to help those who need a hand.

Forward we go, hand in hand,

For even your hand is powerful and grand.

The lyrics:

In my home I have been missing a friend

Whom I can depend

Whatever it might be

I know one day it will come to me

A missing friend, how I hope you come soon

Here I am, singing my hopeful tune

A missing friend, I know you’ll come soon

Because fate will bring us together

Lyrics:

In my home I have been missing a friend

Whom I can depend

Whatever that it might be

I know one day it will come to me

A missing friend, how I hope you’ll come soon

Here I am, singing my hopeful tune

A missing friend, I know you’ll come soon

Because fate will bring us together

the sun breaked through the cold dark night

the birds that chirps, the trees that sway

reminds me that i am still alive.
