tengah malam saya mendengarkan lagu i was here-lady antebellum di hp kakak ku ira yang tiba-tiba membuat saya psychedelic.
awalnya saya mengira ini lagu tentang percintaan.mumpung bahasa inggris saya masih kurang baik, butuh belajar lagi. lirik yang ku tangkap tapi salah karena terdengar di telingaku seperti
" i wanna something the better, he something different"
karena rasa ingin tahu yang tinggi, saya mencari liriknya kemudiam mengartikan dan ternyata.....
lagu ini menceritakan kalau kita tidak boleh menyerah untuk apa yang sedang kita cita-citakan terlalu lama di dalam hati, tapi diliriknya seperti tak ada dukungan dari siapapun yang ada mereka selalu menjatuhkan, kadang impian yang tidak disertai dukungan memang membuat kita terasa malas melakukannya, namun selagi itu baik dan kita mempunyai niat dan keinginan yang kuat, percayalah tuhan tidak tidur, man jadda wajjjada
You won't notice me
I'll be leaving my mark
Like intials carved in an old oak tree
You wait and see
Maybe I'll write like Twain wrote
Maybe I'll paint like VanGough
Cure the common cold
I don't know
But I'm ready to start cause I know in my heart
I wanna do something that matters
Say something different
Something that sets the whole world on it's here
I wanna do something better
With the time I've been given
And I wanna try to touch a few hearts in this life
Leave nothing less than
Something that says I was here
I will prove you wrong
If you think I'm all talk you're in for a shock
Cause this drink's too strong
And before too long
Maybe I'll compose symphonies
Maybe I'll fight for world peace
Cause I know it's my destiny
To leave more than a trace of myself in this place
I wanna do something that matters
Say something different
Something that sets the whole world on it's here
I wanna do something better
With the time I've been given
And I wanna try to touch a few hearts in this life
Leave nothing less than
Something that says I was here
And I know that I, I will do more than just pass through this life
I leave nothing less than something that says I was here
I was here (I was here)
I was here
Wanna do something that matters, something that says I was here
Wanna do something that matters, something that says I was here
I was here
