Song Lyrics- Love Rioting

Posted on | October 15, 2009 | 1 Comment

Some new lyrics I wrote. I call it Love Rioting.

The lyrics contains a mashup of feelings…what it’s like trying to express that love inside and trying to let it out, trying to let her know about it, and how tough it is to keep it inside until it ultimately has to come out.

Partly inspired by Jennifer Hudson’s ability to sing ‘Spotlight’. She has such a strong voice. Below is  video of Marie Hui who sings the song. That ability to belt out the tunes starting at the 3.00 minute mark is the sort of feelings I’m trying to encapsulate. Please let me know what you think…always appreciate the feedback.

=================

From the very first time we laid eyes
There was something there that I won’t deny
Not something I could rid of
Not something I wanted to sweep away
Baby, that night I let you have your way

Now here I am, left with something of urge
I can’t fight this off
Gone 6 rounds and it’s almost lights out
Can’t go no more, cuz I’m just ready to shout

This, this something inside
These feelings, these feelings are my own
Only accepting it and something that I’m wanting shown

It’s bursting out and wanting to sing
It’s wanting to come out and not feel like dying
Welcome, cuz this is my love rioting

No one can keep this locked up
Maximum security won’t keep this inside
Please just accept it and don’t deny
That this is just my love rioting

Oh can’t you see what I see
Come on in cuz I’ve got this opening
All I got is this one-heart vacancy
It’s all for just you and me

I can’t run, I can’t flee
From these feelings raging all inside me
Baby, I’ve got it inside cuz I’m a fighter
So don’t be resisting cuz I don’t tire

6 more rounds I’m ready for more
To convince you that this love ain’t dying
6 more rounds I got for fighting
It’s all inside, it’s all my love rioting

    [...] emotions that run far deeper than I ever care to make public to anyone. Look inside and look at the lyrics of my songs and the words in my poems, and you’ll know how deep those emotions [...]
