about

Vanessa Suteja (9D)
Our Hip-hop track represents victims of bullying. It talks about their lives, their struggles, and the discrimination they face, each and every day. It’s become a voice for them to speak out against any injustice done to them. Our song is special because it represents big life lessons and moral values, which could give a positive impact to other people’s who have lost their voice’s life.

(from our class inquiry questions) …

Can a song change the world? Can a song change you? Can creating a song change you? Why?

Caca Marcella Carla Arifin
Music is a form of artistic expression and has the advantage of being kind of loud that can attract the attention and the opinion of people. Music could also be used to: heal other people; break down barriers in life; as well as educating. Sometimes, music is used to help promote and preserve human rights.

Felicia Kartika (9D)
Creating songs can also have an impact on your life. This is because writing songs make you see things from another angle/perspective, changing the way we think. We also learn how to express ourselves better, especially on things that aren’t easy to just say.

Davina Faith Hadinyoto
When a person is the one who comes up with the messages and ideas for the song, they themselves can be much more influenced by what they want to show the world. Not to mention, by looking more into the topic of the song or creating the lyrics, Artists have a better understanding about that certain issue which can also change the way they perceive it.
Cystaleene Rebecca Queen Soegiharto (9D).
Songs that have deep meanings and can touch people’s hearts to change into someone else. Someone hopefully better. Creating a song on the other hand can change you. I love writing songs, just never finished them. I somehow find peace in writing it, but others might not feel the same way. To be honest it’s all based on perspectives and preferences
Anthony Wijaya (9D)
By creating this song I now know that how important it is to help someone who is bullied and to help him or her and prevent him or her from doing anything stupid. Because by creating this video we can understand how the person feels from the inside.

lyrics

Verse 1
In every school you visit there will always be a bully
Why that is so…I’ll never get it fully
The bully thinks he’s smart, thinks he’s so funny
Doesn’t see the person, only his money
Treating others like trash, treating others like dirt
Take away humanity, treat them with brutality
So listen up bully, can’t you see?
You’re not so tough, you’re just like me. Hook
Yo bully, what’s driving you?
Why you causing misery and doing what you do?
We’re just trying to live just trying to be free
We’re all the same won’t you let us be?
Yo bully, what’s driving you?
Why you causing misery and doing what you do?
We’re just trying to live, we just wanna be free
We’re all the same wouldn’t you agree?

Verse 2
(They said), Why don’t you just cut your wrists until you bleed
Please stop, please stop! Just stop!! Dolly pleads
Taunted by haters that caused an inner scream
Nobody noticed her decreasing self-esteem
“Stand up, speak even if your voice shakes”
You can get through this awful heart break
Here’s to Dolly…she suffered a lot!
Her life turned into a complicated knot. (Hook)
Yo bully, what’s driving you?
Why you causing misery and doing what you do?
We’re just trying to live, we just wanna be free
We’re all the same wouldn’t you agree?

X 2
Verse 3
People crack jokes when she walks by
Deep down she’s so hurt, she could only ask why?
You see she was drowning in a sea of misery
Never really knowing what happiness could be
Suffocated by dark clouds of fear
Wishing that those people would just disappear
Just people cracking jokes as someone walks by...
Just nasty little words that can really crucify Double Hook
2nd time: Bully…what you’re doing is wrong!
Just stop your fight so that we can all get along.
We’re just trying to live just trying to be free,
We’re all the same won’t you let us be?
Yo bully, what’s driving you?
Why you causing misery and doing what you do?
We’re just trying to live, we just wanna be free
We’re all the same wouldn’t you agree?
