[Gregory Kemmis:]
[Verse 1:]
Once upon a time somebody had a writer's block,
Who'd never known how talk, except for words
Once upon a time there was a poet,
Who'd never even known it, (who'd never even known it.)
Once upon a time there was a person who had an individual story within themselves,
And no one seemed to care about them, or all they cared about was themselves
(Vocalization)
Tell me what you feel when you hear my story,
Tell me what it feels like, how does it relate to you?
This is the key to success
It's a key to understanding success, (and once you understand)
Once you understand, you have a voice within you!
[Chorus:]
You can brighten up your world, (brighten up your world).
(Vocalization)
You can be somebody else's voice, if you wanted to make a choice
Brighten up your world.
[Verse 2:]
Once upon a time, somebody was convicted of a crime
And they were absolutely voiceless,
And they are absolutely defenseless,
But everybody seems to pay.
Everybody seems to pay, for everybody else's ways.
And it doesn't really matter, who goes ahead to make other people shatter,
You can be their big surprise, you can be their alibi
Brighten up your world, today.
[Bridge:]
Brighten up your world today, (brighten up your world today).
(Vocalizations)
(Vocalizations)
Let me tell you something else right here
[Chorus:]
You can be a big surprise, you can be somebody's alibi
Brighten up your world, brighten up your world.
(Brighten up your world)
It could've been somebody else's sacrifice
Until you understand what you live for in your lifetime
Brighten up your world, today, (brighten up your world, today.)
Go ahead and be a big surprise,
Go ahead and be somebody else's alibi,
Brighten up your world!
