Say
Kevin Walker Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Every little past frustration
Take all of your so-called problems,
Better put 'em in quotations
Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say
Walking like a one man army
Fighting with the shadows in your head
Living out the same old moment
Knowing you'd be better off instead,
If you could only
Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say
Say what you need to say
Have no fear for giving in
Have no fear for giving over
You'd better know that in the end
It's better to say too much
Than never to say what you need to say again
Even if your hands are shaking
And your faith is broken
Even as the eyes are closing
Do it with a heart wide open (a wide heart)
The lyrics to Kevin Walker's song "Say" are a call for honesty and authenticity in communication. The first verse urges the listener to let go of past frustrations and problems and express themselves honestly. The repetition of the phrase "say what you need to say" emphasizes the importance of communication and the power that comes with speaking one's truth.
The second verse paints a picture of someone struggling internally, fighting with their own thoughts and feeling stuck in a repetitive cycle. The lyrics suggest that if this person were able to communicate their needs and feelings, they would be better off. The chorus repeats the message of the first verse, urging the listener to speak up and say what they need to say.
The final verse is a message of encouragement to those who may be afraid to speak their truth. The lyrics remind us that it's better to communicate too much than to hold back and never say what needs to be said. Even if it's difficult or scary, the song suggests that we should approach communication with an open heart and be willing to take risks in order to connect authentically with others.
Overall, "Say" is a powerful reminder of the importance of communication and the transformative effects of speaking our truth.
