It's Not The End (Music Will Return) [Written to the beat of 'In The End' By Linkin Park]

Location

It starts with...

One thing.

We don't know why,

We never really had a reason not to try. 

We kept this inside,

but now is our time.

Now is our time to shine.

 

All we know...

Music is not just a luxury.

It's something you feel, it's inside you & me.

But now these kids have their music denied?

Come on! Push the excuses aside!

 

The trust just flows...

Playing intensifies belief, faith, and emotional ties.

Lays the foundation and helps us realize,

What we need in our future lives.

 

You can't take away this art, 

it's like ripping out our hearts. 

This is who we are. 

Please try to understand

That we have to take command.

It's time to take a stand.

 

Don't take away

Our only hope.

We won't give up,

We'll keep the fire burning.

You have to try,

Just close your eyes.

And believe,

Music is all that matters.

 

Learning to sing or play these notes,

Practicing for hours to do it by rote.

Discipline is the name of the game.

Personal freedom just the same.

 

Nothing left but you and your voice.

Writing these raps like it's your only choice.

Using the music to forget your scars,

Sitting there amazed that you've come so far.

 

There's terms you have to memorize.

So you write a rap on how to synthesize.

Music is logic and creativity,

Not just one but both abilities.

 

Don't take away

Our only hope.

We won't give up,

We'll keep the fire burning.

You have to try,

Just close your eyes.

And believe,

Music is all that matters.

 

We can't do this alone.

We need your help to save this now.

For all this,

there's only one thing you should know.

 

Don't take away...

Don't take away

Our only hope.

We won't give up,

We'll keep the fire burning.

You have to try,

Just close your eyes.

And believe,

Music is all that matters.
