Lyrics

Verse 1
I write my music as a hobby,
Would you still reach out and rob me?
Would you steal my songs and call them your own,
Or try your best to top me?
To be fair, I don’t think you really care
About the time and love I put in there.
So take what you need, if that’s what you choose,
But you can steal the words—you can’t steal my truth.

Pre-Chorus
Every line came straight from my heart,
Every melody is a piece of who we are.
If you need a song to help your light shine,
Pick up your pen and write your own lines.

Chorus
It could be a slow song,
Or something you can roll on.
But don’t reach out and rob me—
Go and write one of your own.
Find the words inside you,
Let your own heart guide you.
You don’t have to take mine—
Go and write one of your own.

Verse 2
So why should I keep writing music
If you’re only going to use it,
Then put your name upon the song
And claim it as your own?
You know that it’s so wrong,
But you’ve been doing it so long.
You can imitate the sound you hear,
But you can’t replace the soul.

Pre-Chorus
I worked too hard to make this art,
Every note carries a piece of my heart.
If you want a song that will stand the test of time,
Be creative and write your own lines.

Chorus
It could be a slow song,
Or something you can roll on.
But don’t reach out and rob me—
Go and write one of your own.
Find the words inside you,
Let your own heart guide you.
You don’t have to take mine—
Go and write one of your own.

Verse 3
You may copy every rhythm,
You may sing the way I sing them.
You might change a word or two
And say the song belongs to you.
But deep inside, you’ll always know
Those weren’t the seeds you chose to sow.
There’s a voice inside you waiting—
Let it speak and let it grow.

Bridge
It’s so wrong, so wrong—go on,
Find the place where you belong.
It’s so wrong, so wrong—move on,
Tell your story, write your song.
There is something you can say
That no one else can say that way.
You don’t have to take from me—
Set your own creation free.

Final Chorus
It could be a slow song,
Or something we can groove on.
You don’t need to rob me—
You can write one of your own.
Find the words inside you,
Let your own heart guide you.
There’s a song that only you know—
Go and write one of your own.

Outro
Go on, go on—write your own.
Go on, go on—make it known.
Go on, go on—find your tone.
Pick up your pen and write your own.

Go on…
Go on…
Go on…
Write your own.
