They Say
Internet Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

They say that every day is a struggle and it takes time
But do they, do they have a clue?
How do I, do I tell the truth from a lie now?
They're trying to say hello, it's goodbye tomorrow
Just put a little [?] in the bowl... and you'll be all right!
You'll be all right!

Just think if things were perfect
Would it be worth it if even act all
So don't act like you can't take it
You were meant to be greatness
You can run to the stars

I know how easy, it is to give up
But don't let people to hold you down!
And I know sometimes it'll amaze you (it'll amaze you)
Don't let it fade you
Just hold your ground!

They say, they say hmmm
They say, they say hmmm
They say, they say hmmm

Oh, oh!
Why do we trust those we don't know
There's no need to hide
You know what's inside!
What do we hear when it's love to spare
Why don't we understand
That the only way to grow is sweet love!

Just think if things were perfect
Would it be worth it if even act all
So don't act like you can't take it
You were meant to be greatness
You can run to the stars

I know how easy, it is to give up
But don't let people to hold you down!
And I know sometimes it'll amaze you (it'll amaze you)




Don't let it fade you
Just hold your ground!
