BE THE SONG
Music & Lyrics by Michael Mott
Choral Arrangement by Jeff Theiss
Rhythm Arrangement by Kim Scharnberg 
Produced by Michael Mott and Michael Croiter

VERSE:
IN THE FACE OF TRAGEDY, 
OUR CRIES SEEM ALL IN VAIN. 
BUT I HEAR A MELODY,
SO JOIN IN MY REFRAIN.

PRE-CHORUS:
AND WE, WE WILL SING,
BUILD THE CHORDS AND HUM ALONG. 
REARRANGE, MAKE A CHANGE, 
BE THE SONG.

CHORUS:
BE THE SONG,
BE THE SONG.
BE THE SONG 
AND FOR THOSE WHO OPPOSE ALL ALONG, 
SING A LITTLE LOUDER FOR THE ONES WHO GOT IT WRONG.

VERSE:
IN THE NAME OF EVERY CHILD
WHO’S LOST THEIR SEPARATE CHOICE, 
SILENCE SPEAKS SO LOUD AND WILD, 
SO LET US BE THEIR VOICE.

PRE-CHORUS:
AND WE, WE WILL SING,
HOLD THE PLACE WHERE THEY BELONG. 
HARMONIZE, AS THEIR CRIES BE THE SONG.

CHORUS:
BE THE SONG,
BE THE SONG.
BE THE SONG AND FOR THOSE WHO OPPOSE ALL ALONG, 
SING A LITTLE LOUDER FOR THE ONES WHO GOT IT WRONG.

BRIDGE:
IN THESE DESPERATE TIMES OF SILENCE, 
WHEN IT SEEMS WE CAN'T UNITE,
BE THE VOICE OF TOMORROW.
STAND AND FIGHT, DO WHAT’S RIGHT!

BREAKDOWN:
WE WILL MAGNIFY THE MOMENT
LIKE THE SUN FROM UP ABOVE,
WE WILL SHINE FROM SEA TO SHINING SEA 
TO AMPLIFY OUR LOVE.

WE WILL STAND UP TO THE VIOLENCE, 
HOLDING HANDS UPON THE SHORE. 
FOR THE ONES WHO COME TOMORROW 
AND THE ONES WHO CAME BEFORE.

AND FOR THOSE WHO OPPOSE ALL ALONG,
SING A LITTLE LOUDER FOR THE ONES WHO GOT IT WRONG.

CHORUS:
BE THE SONG,
BE THE SONG.
BE THE SONG AND FOR THOSE WHO OPPOSE ALL ALONG,
SING A LITTLE LOUDER, SING A LITTLE LOUDER,
WE SING A LITTLE LOUDER FOR THE ONES WHO GOT IT WRONG.

BE THE SONG!

OUTRO:
REARRANGE, MAKE A CHANGE, 
BE THE SONG.
