⸻
[Intro – spoken/smooth]
Yeah…
Sometimes all it takes is one word, one smile…
Let’s speak life.
⸻
[Verse 1]
Walking down the block, see the pain in they eyes,
Carrying the weight, but they hide in disguise.
Silent storms, battles that we never know,
One kind word, man, it’s brighter than gold.
“Hey you got this,” yeah, it changes the tone,
Turn a long dark night to a light of its own.
It don’t take much, just a second in time,
Drop a little love, let the whole world shine.
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
We all fall down, yeah we all got scars,
But kindness heals quicker than the pain in our hearts.
⸻
[Chorus]
Lift ‘em up, don’t tear ‘em down (down),
A little love can turn it all around (round).
One kind word, let the good vibes start,
You never know how it heals a heart.
Speak life, let the spirit rise,
Be the reason someone sees the light.
Speak life, yeah, speak life,
Be the reason someone sees the light.
⸻
[Verse 2]
That man on the corner, thinkin’ nobody cares,
That girl with her head down, drowning in despair.
World’s so cold, cuts deep like ice,
But the fire comes alive when we just act nice.
Say, “How you doin’?” or “Yo, you’re not alone,”
Turn a stranger to a friend with the kindness shown.
Life moves fast, so let your love be strong,
Chain reaction — we all pass it on.
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
We all fall down, yeah we all got scars,
But love reaches further than the pain ever are.
⸻
[Chorus]
Lift ‘em up, don’t tear ‘em down (down),
A little love can turn it all around (round).
One kind word, let the good vibes start,
You never know how it heals a heart.
Speak life, let the spirit rise,
Be the reason someone sees the light.
Speak life, yeah, speak life,
Be the reason someone sees the light.
⸻
[Bridge – rap breakdown]
Yo, it don’t cost nothin’ just to say something real,
But it might be the word that helps somebody heal.
We all need hope, we all need a friend,
Be the spark, be the light, be the voice at the end.
Yeah, your word’s a seed, plant it in the ground,
Kindness is a wave, let it spread around.
One love, one heart, let the world ignite,
Be the reason someone sees the light.
⸻
[Chorus – big / final]
Lift ‘em up, don’t tear ‘em down (down),
A little love can turn it all around (round).
One kind word, let the good vibes start,
You never know how it heals a heart.
Speak life, let the spirit rise,
Be the reason someone sees the light.
Speak life, yeah, speak life,
Be the reason someone sees the light.
⸻
[Outro – smooth fade]
Yeah… speak life…
Let your kindness shine bright…
Be the reason… someone sees the light.
Speak life…
