BARS AND MELODY 143 LYRICS
album: "143" (2015)
Hopeful
Oh-oh-oh
Yeah
Please help me God, I feel so alone
I'm just a kid, I can't take it on my own
I've cried so many tears,
Yeah, writing this song
Trying to fit in, where do I belong?
I wake up every day, don't wanna leave my home
My mamma's askin' me why I'm always alone
Too scared to say, too scared to holler
I'm walking to school with sweat around my collar
I'm just a kid, I don't want no stress
My nerves are bad, my life's a mess
The names you call me, they hurt real bad
I want to tell my Mom but
She's havin' trouble with my Dad
I feel so trapped there's nowhere to turn
Come' to school
Don't wanna fight I wanna learn
So please mister Bully
Tell me what I've done
You know I have no Dad
I'm livin' with my Mom
Cause I'm hopeful, yes I am
Hopeful for today
Take this music and use it
Let it take you away
And be hopeful, hopeful
And He'll make a way
I know it ain't easy but that's okay
Just be hopeful
Why do you trip at the color of my skin?
And whether I'm fat or whether I'm thin
You call me a loser, you call me a fool
I ain't got a choice I gotta to go to school
I wish I had an angel to stick by my side
I'm shaking with fear, I'm so scared inside
Doesn't really matter if I ain't got a looks
Why do you always hurt me and destroy my books?
Cause I'm hopeful, yes I am
Hopeful for today
Take this music and use it
Let it take you away
And be hopeful, hopeful
And He'll make a way
I know it ain't easy but that's okay
Just be hopeful
I give you all my money every single day
I didn't ask to be born but now I have to pay
I ain't got no food, you take all I have
When I give it to you, you search through my bags
I wrote this song for you to see
We could've been friends, yeah you and me
Mister bully, take a moment please
Every single day you bring me to my knees
Cause I'm hopeful, yes I am
Hopeful for today
Take this music and use it
Let it take you away
And be hopeful, hopeful
And He'll make a way
I know it ain't easy but that's okay
Cause I'm hopeful, yes I am
Hopeful for today
Take this music and use it
Let it take you away
And be hopeful, hopeful
And He'll make a way
I know it ain't easy but that's okay
Just be hopeful
What I wear is all I have
We lost our home, I liven' from my bag
Yo mister bully, help me please
I'm flesh and blood, accept me please.

Breathe
Tears run from cheek to sleeve
Blame me but you chose to leave
Still texting me 143
3 words you breathe
I close my eyes see your beauty in my mind
Cant describe how I feel inside it won't stop I pray
Wished the pain would go away I can't pretend
It is the end are we friends can we mend it for us because (so its up to you)
I can't breathe these words I can't speak because I've never been in love
Your my first I'm feeling empty inside my eyes blurry I cant survive (without you)
I know your cautious and scared what we gonna do
Our hearts never been broken before but your so unsure
And I promise I wont let us fall we're good together
Please don't throw it away I wont say you gotta say
Tears run from cheek to sleeve
Blame me but you chose to leave
Still texting me 143
3 words you breathe
So it's up to you [x2]
So its up to you to breathe those words
Your my one and only I don't wanna let you go just breathe don't cry
You are so beautiful don't be afraid I will be with you through it all
I will be the hand to catch you if you fall I see you have only the two of us together
No matter how hard they try to tear us apart they cant
Never want us to be happy at all she can take on the world united forever its your call
Tears run from cheek to sleeve
Blame me but you chose to leave
Still texting me 143
3 words you breathe
So it's up to you [x2]
So its up to you to breathe those words [x2]
Why don't we spend a little time together
We both know this could last forever
Since day one you stole my heart
Cause' I kill every time we're apart
So it's up to you [x2]
So its up to you to breathe those words
Tears run from cheek to sleeve
Blame me but you chose to leave
Still texting me 143
3 words you breathe
So it's up to you [x2]
So its up to you to breathe those words

Keep Smiling
[Charlie:] oooooooo
[Leondre:] yeah, Bars and Melody
(Keep Smiling, Keep Smiling)
[Charlie:] Keep smiling, keep smiling and we'll see what tomorrow brings.
Keep smiling, keep smiling and be thankful for the little things.
[Leondre:] the sun is shining in the morning I get out of bed,
Instead of being negative I thank the lord I ain't dead.
'Cause I can do what I want and I can travel the world,
And just maybe while I'm doing it I might meet a girl.
I live my life on a stage and with a pen in the page,
I follow all my dreams and wouldn't have to care about a wage.
But if it doesn't work out I'll keep a smile on my face,
And I'll be thankful for the fact that I've got food on my plate.
[Charlie:] Keep smiling, keep smiling and we'll see what tomorrow brings.
Keep smiling, keep smiling and be thankful for the little things.
'Cause we won't be around forever, so come on all lets join in together.
Keep smiling (keep smiling), keep smiling (keep smiling)
And just remember all the good old days
[Leondre:] I live each day as it comes I breathe the air through my lungs,
I spend my pocket money then I play PS with my chums.
But if I didn't want the melody forget about reality,
I'd make a hit and I'd give all my earns to a charity.
People would be glad for me I'd help out all my family,
Depending on my mood whether I would change pathetic fallacy.
Football in the streets like my dad used to tell,
back when everything just seemed to run so well.
[Charlie:] Keep smiling, keep smiling and we'll see what tomorrow brings.
Keep smiling, keep smiling and be thankful for the little things.
'Cause we won't be around forever, so come on all lets join in together.
Keep smiling (keep smiling), keep smiling (keep smiling)
And just remember all the good old days
[Leondre:] back to back you know it's up to you,
It's amazing what a single friendly smile could do.
Never under estimate yourself or any others,
'Cause deep down we're connected like sisters and brothers.
[Charlie:] Keep smiling, keep smiling and we'll see what tomorrow brings.
Keep smiling, keep smiling and be thankful for the little things.
'Cause we won't be around forever, so come on all lets join in together.
Keep smiling (keep smiling), keep smiling (keep smiling)
And just remeber all the good old days

Stay Young
[Leondre:]
Didn't think much of growing up, when I was young
I thought life was a playground, age was monkey bars
Swinging to each one, when you got to the end
You'd just fall off, then start again
Life would spin you around like a roundabout
Eating ice cream till all the ice cream's out
I wanna be like that, we should all be young
Instead of carrying the weight of the world
Play a game of tag or maybe football
Kiss chase with the ladies who were beautiful
And not a care in the world, but we love and care for our friends
When we play mum and dad, let the game never end
And when the game's over, let's play again
Play hide and seek, count to one hundred and ten
Life on this earth would never be the same
We wouldn't have to worry 'bout money, no money no pain
[Charlie:]
People say we act too young, but we know that we're just having fun
Ignoring all the wrongs of society, forget about the stress and anxiety
People say we need to act older, but with age the world only gets colder
Enjoy your life cause you only get one, why rush, we wanna stay young
What ya wanna do?
I wanna stay young
What ya wanna do?
I wanna stay young
What ya wanna do?
I wanna stay young
Stay young, stay young
[Leondre:]
The field's full of green, the sun is shining down
Full of kids in football kits, running around
Slide tackling each other just playing about
But we wouldn't get hurt so nobody would shout
But nowadays, there's no one in the park
Only teenagers sat in their rooms in the dark
Laying in their bed, rain outside
Storms are raging, lightning in the sky
When I was young I remember the skies blue
Now all I see in the world is people feeling blue
It's time to flip the world around, make it a better place
I don't want a world of strangers, snap back and take our place
It ain't right, we're missing out on so much
Back to when we used to play stuck in the mud
But hope ain't lost, I have you by my side
Let's make this life a crazy rollercoaster ride
[Charlie:]
People say we act too young, but we know that we're just having fun
Ignoring all the wrongs of society, forget about the stress and anxiety
People say we need to act older, but with age the world only gets colder
Enjoy your life cause you only get one, why rush, we wanna stay young
What ya wanna do?
I wanna stay young
What ya wanna do?
I wanna stay young
What ya wanna do?
I wanna stay young
Stay young, stay young
People say we act too young, but we know that we're just having fun
Ignoring all the wrongs of society, forget about the stress and anxiety
People say we need to act older, but with age the world only gets colder
Enjoy your life cause you only get one, why rush, we wanna stay young
People say we act too young
What ya wanna do?
Ignoring all the wrongs of society
What ya wanna do?
People say we need to act older
What ya wanna do?
Enjoy your life cause you only get one, why rush, we wanna stay young

Complicated
She got class,
She got style,
No more perfection than a smile,
You need to know girl,
You will be making my head whirl,
We need to be together,
Cause I can make it last forever,
Do you believe in faith?
Cause if not girl I can wait
I could be your knight in shining armour,
I could be your prince and I could be a charmer,
If I'm not good enough I will try harder
cause I'll be back around like karma,
I just want you to know,
I've never felt like this before,
This all new to me,
I'm certain that you'll be my queen
People call me crazy,
Crazy for you baby,
No one understands our love,
They think it's too complicated
People call me crazy,
But you just think I'm lazy,
If they only knew about us,
It wouldn't be so complicated
Hey there babe I didn't catch your name,
But you caught my eye, I wanna see you again,
We can work it out, you could be mine,
I know we just met, but we're wasting time,
Jawdrop, every time that you're walking through,
Is your sense cinderella cause I got your shoe,
Ok, ok, lets spin this round,
You could be my queen you could wear the crown
Since I layed eyes on your beautiful face,
If you ever had a man I'd wanna be in his place,
Cause you so fine, you're so flawless,
And you're so delicate I will be cautious,
I see you're eyes twinkle when you walk my way,
Life's a game baby girl let's play,
We can travel the globe babe me and you,
If you ain't official then its overdue
People call me crazy,
Crazy for you baby
No one understands our love
They think its too complicated
People call me crazy
But you just say I'm lazy
If they only knew about us
It wouldn't be so complicated
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
They think its too complicated
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
They think its too complicated
People call me crazy
I'm crazy for you baby
No one understands our love
They think its too complicated
People call me crazy
But you just think I'm lazy
If they only knew about us
It wouldn't be so complicated

Stay Strong
[Charlie:]
Oh yeah
Whoa oh
[Leondre:]
There’s this girl I know, she feels unknown
Just wanna have attention, cries on her own
Got nobody to go to she feels so scared
Doesn’t wanna go to school, cries in her bed
She got a couple friends they think she’s okay
Inside the pain haunts her, day by day
She still hasn’t given up, she doesn’t see the point
She just wants happiness but emotions disappoint
She blames herself, it drives her mad
For every single little trouble that she’s ever had
The pain she endures you can see it through her shirt
Bearing the scars of society’s burns
[Charlie:]
No more pain
No more tears
There’s no need to cry no more there’s nothing left to fear
No more pain
No more tears
You don’t need to lie no more cause’ now you know we’re here
[Leondre:]
She hides herself, no one hears her cries
If only you could see the world through her eyes
All she wanted, is one little friend
To stick by her til the very end
She didn’t ask for a lot, in fact nothing at all
Yeah she was still hit around and called a fool
She didn’t wanna fight
She just wanted some love
When she was lonely just one hug
And to feel like she was accepted
Instead of pushed around, left out and rejected
You gotta stay strong nothing lasts forever
You are never alone, we’ll do this together
[Charlie:]
No more pain
No more tears
There’s no need to cry no more there’s nothing left to fear
No more pain
No more tears
You don’t need to lie no more cause now you know we’re here
[Leondre:]
She can’t take it no more
She’s taken enough
She’s been strong for so long but she ain’t that tough
Scared of letting go but no one seems to care
([Charlie:] Yeah)
Scared to carry on cause’ there’s no one there
A frustrated girl, bearing the scars
Fighting her fears behind spiritual bars
One day this girl, I saw her face
She messed it with a smile (I could tell it was fake)
She broke down in tears, said I saved her life
Crying, she asked, “Can I be your wife?”
I answered, “Hey there girl, tell me what is wrong”
She told me everything so I dedicate this song
[Charlie:]
No more pain (don’t cry)
No more tears (no more tears running down your face)
There’s no need to cry no more there’s nothing left to fear (no more pain)
No more pain
No more tears
You don’t need to lie no more cause’ now you know we’re here
Ooooooo
No more…
Ooh ooh

Just Remember
You were my rock and now you ain't there
Had so much time and memories to share
Now you gone I don't know what to do
My hearts messed up in a daze and its crazy
To think that you was here not long ago
Now you gone and you ain't around no more
I'm putting on a friend just to keep me close
Not letting the world in so they can take away your memory
And how we used to be so close together
Now theres miles between us and theres a change in the weather
Replacing your sunshine and what you did for me
When the world made me blind you helped me see
Even though its hard keep battling on
So many people torn apart but you gotta be strong
The whisper that I cry out around the globe
No matter where you may be your heart is my home
People come and go
But memories never fade
They've gone away for a while
And we'll never know why
What hurts the most is seeing you
Break down and cry
Just remember they're still close to you
Just remember they're still close to you
I know its hard to stay and be strong
But my heart is aching I can't take this any longer
Its so hard without you making me smile
Your words of strength they always conjure
The best of me cause' thats who you are
I named it after you the brightest star
'Cause without you in my life there will be no hope
Like Noah and his ark God gave him the boat
So if you hear this wherever you are
You're in my mind your my shining star
It's sad knowing you were here and now you ain't
I would care for one last time to see your face
There's nothing left for me now I've given up
Life's so hard and it's treating me tough
You don't know how much I love somebody till they're gone
Its hard on me but I've gotta move on
People come and go
But memories never fade
They've gone away for a while
And we'll never know why
What hurts the most is seeing you
Break down and cry
Just remember they're still close to you
Just remember they're still close to you
Remember this on the days we shared
Now your gone and we wasn't prepared
Have to leave every day as a last
Preaching it from my fowless[?] past
Never knowing what you've got till its gone
But life continues and the beat creeps on
Gotta stay strong and look up to the sky
Put your hands together and believe in that guy
People come and go
But memories never fade
They've gone away for a while
And we'll never know why
What hurts the most is seeing you
Break down and cry
Just remember they're still close to you
Just remember they're still close to you
***************************************************
Don't Look Back
You know the name top of the game
So other kids are saying that we're lame
Well we're back, back again
Back with the rhyme and pad and a pen
But the time BGT was only written us off
Next work of dought you know it's alot
We kept smiling we stayed strong
Now look where we are we're taking you by storm
Flood warning coming in like a tsunami
Reving up his engine just like a begani
Better wake up cause he's living subalaming
You can't even hate cause you know we're kinda charming
Ha ha that's how we do
You love me and I love you
Going full speed we're coming through
Climbing to the top and we love the view
No one ever believed in us
And no everybody makes a fuss
If they only knew what's coming
They would've stuck by us
If you knew what we would be
Maybe you would've followed me
But it's too late now
Don't look back it's your mistake to see
Me im b to the a-r-s
Don't gotta prove nothing no go to my neck
Music is the way I wanna make my name known
Like Avril V and Ricky cos they got so
Warning warning bambinos swarming to the front of the stage
Please move back
Screaming my name they know my name
And we ain't even started the track
Straight out of the jungle and we ain't sane
Always on track, but in our own lane
Our love for you is growing by the day
Love you more than all the stars in the milkyway-ay
No one ever believed in us
And no everybody makes a fuss
If they only knew what's coming
They would've stuck by us
If you knew what we would be
Maybe you would've followed me
But it's too late now
Don't look back it's your mistake to see
Roll up, stand up here for one time
Keeping it tight like Calvin Klien
When my heads down I'm writing rhymes
Cos everybody knows that I blow your mind (blaw)
Stepping on the stage you know what it's about
We on a journey on a bumpy route
If you don't join in then just bail out
I know what you're missing and it's the end of the drought
Keeping it original we're pen to pad
If you dunno what I'm on about then ask your dad
Just like sesasani we don't talk jazz
But we're coming with the flow that will drive you mad
Hold up - let's take this down a notch
When we're in town make sure you watch
It'll be crazy to miss our show
Coz you gon't hear about it every single place you go
No one ever believed in us
And no everybody makes a fuss
If they only knew what's coming
They would've stuck by us
If you knew what we would be
Maybe you would've followed me
But it's too late now
Don't look back it's your mistake to see
No one ever believed in us
And no everybody makes a fuss
If they only knew what's coming
They would've stuck by us
If you knew what we would be
Maybe you would've followed me
But it's too late now
Don't look back it's your mistake to see

Beautiful
Be-a-utiful
Don't tell me girl ‘cos I'm being truthful
When I tell you your perfection
Take a minute look at you reflection, oh
Never put yourself down
‘Cos I'ma lift you up before you drown
When I see you in the crowd
The beat in my heart only gets louder
Your hair, your eyes, your style
The way that you stretch and the way that you smile
Girl I have been watching you for a while
You will be making me run for a mile
Your personality too much to handle
Ya, light up the room like a candle
Can't you see girl
I hope you believe in destiny
The day I met you, I became somebody
Now, I'm standing next to you
You make me feel like somebody

Wanna be with you
Just wanna be with you
Tell me baby what you wanna do
Come over here, we don't need to think about it
Life is too fast to overthink about it
It comes down to what I don't want to lose
Million girls in the world but I choose you
You got some in the vibe, the way you move
The way you talk I want to prove to you
That I ain't fake, it's give or take
Wanna slow it down for the emergency break
‘Cos you got something that I need
My heart's with you just listen, believe
Don't be shy when I hold you close
You the only one I ever want the one I want the most (oh)
The day I met you, I became somebody
Now, I'm standing next to you

Tell me what you wanna do

You add the goodness to my night
Now, rest your head and go to sleep
I will be yours for you to keep
Baby girl don't be shy, come dance with me
Me and you on the dancefloor has to be
When I hold you close baby my boo
‘Cos you give me a sweet taboo
Your heart's locked up give me the key
Forever my lady you made me see
When I'm with you, girl they don't faze me
In my arms you're a charm you should show it baby
We should slow down, if you're gonna be mine
Don't need to rush let's take our time
(Skip a beat) Skip a beat, everytime you're around
Baby you could be my brandy, I wanna be down
Your personality too much to handle
Ya, light up the room like a candle
