The People Make The Music by Skye Steele Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2015

[Verse 1]
I drink my coffee in Brooklyn, so when I get to Manhattan
I’ll be ready to go, I’ll be good to go on and on
Make my money in motion, I’m a true man of action
I don’t ever slow down
'Cause this world keeps spinning round and round
I found my path underground, life laid my track underground
Don’t know where it’s gonna lead
But there’s a light that I see so clear

[Chorus]
And though I put my hands into it
The people shape the music
And I put my heart into it
But the people make the music
Oh, I put my soul in there so
The people feel my melody
I’ve got this song I’ve got to sing

[Verse 2]
Swing my drum, sing my song
My voice and arm and will is strong enough to carry me on
Enough to carry me on and on
I keep this fire in my heart
It keeps me warm when I start to feel the cold wind of doubt
Alone forgotten and down and out
Oh, oh, woah
Oh, oh, woah
[Chorus]
And though I put my hands into it
The people shape the music
I put my heart into it
But the people make the music
I put my soul in there so
The people feel my melody
I’ve got this song I’ve got to sing

[Bridge]
'Cause you don’t know just how long you’re gonna have that voice
The air’s there longing to hold your music
But you’ve gotta take it and shape it, it’s your choice

[Chorus]
And though I put my hands into it
The people shape the music
I put my heart into it
But the people make the music
I put my soul in there so
The people feel my melody
I’ve got this song
I've got this song
I've got this song I’ve got to
Oh, oh, woah
Oh, oh, woah
[Outro]
People move like the ocean
And I watch them go by and I remember my home
I think of all that I left behind
