**“Say It Alive”** *Verse 1* A whisper can shake a city A rumor can light a flame A promise scribbled in pencil Can still rewrite a name I’ve seen walls built out of silence And hearts cracked by one line Funny how a sound in the air Can bend the spine of time *Pre-Chorus* They don’t bleed, they don’t bruise But they cut straight through the soul Every sentence is a choice Every mouth is a loaded role *Chorus* Words can build you a kingdom Or bury you under the sand They can start a revolution Or slip like a knife in the hand Say it soft, say it loudly Say it honest, say it true ’Cause once you let them fly They don’t come back to you *Verse 2* A label can lock a future A name can set you free A single “I believe in you” Can change what someone sees I’ve felt the weight of “never” And the lift of “you can” Every story ever written Started with a breath and a plan *Pre-Chorus* They don’t rust, they don’t fade They echo long after the sound What you say when no one’s listening Is what comes back around *Chorus* Words can build you a kingdom Or bury you under the sand They can start a revolution Or slip like a knife in the hand Say it soft, say it loudly Say it honest, say it true ’Cause once you let them fly They don’t come back to you *Bridge* So speak like it matters ’Cause it does, every time Your tongue is a spark In a world soaked in gasoline Be the voice that mends Not the echo of fear Let your language be light When the dark is near *Final Chorus* Words can heal, words can haunt They can break, they can bless They can turn all this chaos Into something closer to “yes” So say love when you mean it Say hope when it’s hard to do The strongest thing you’ll ever wield Is the words that come from you
