And the world's gonna know your name (oh, yeah)
And you'll be on the walls of the hall of fame

I know that there's a place for us
For we are glorious

When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown 'em out
I am brave, I am bruised
I am who I'm meant to be, this is me
Look out 'cause here I come
And I'm marching on to the beat I drum
I'm not scared to be seen
I make no apologies, this is me

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh

Another round of bullets hits my skin
Well, fire away 'cause today, I won't let the shame sink in
We are bursting through the barricades and
Reaching for the sun (we are warriors)
Yeah, that's what we've become (yeah, that's what we've become)

I won't let them break me down to dust
I know that there's a place for us
For we are glorious

Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
This is me

and I know that I deserve your love
(Oh-oh-oh-oh) there's nothing I'm not worthy of
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh)
When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown 'em out
This is brave, this is bruised
This is who I'm meant to be, this is me

Look out 'cause here I come (look out 'cause here I come)
And I'm marching on to the beat I drum (marching on, marching, marching on)
I'm not scared to be seen
I make no apologies, this is me

Whenever the words wanna cut me down (oh-oh-oh-oh)

Lirik A Whole New World

I can show you the world
Shining, shimmering, splendid
Tell me, princess, now when did
You last let your heart decide?

I can open your eyes
Take you wonder by wonder
Over, sideways and under
On a magic carpet ride

A whole new world
A new fantastic point of view
No one to tell us, "no"
Or where to go
Or say we're only dreaming

A whole new world
A dazzling place I never knew
But when I'm way up here
It's crystal clear
That now I'm in a whole new world with you
(Now I'm in a whole new world with you)

Unbelievable sights
Indescribable feeling
Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling
Through an endless diamond sky

A whole new world
(Don't you dare close your eyes)
A hundred thousand things to see
(Hold your breath, it gets better)
I'm like a shooting star
I've come so far
I can't go back to where I used to be

A whole new world
With new horizons to pursue
I'll chase them anywhere
There's time to spare
Let me share this whole new world with you

A whole new world
(A whole new world)
A new fantastic point of view
No one to tell us, "no"
Or where to go
Or say we're only dreaming

A whole new world
(Every turn, a surprise)
With new horizons to pursue
(Every moment, red-letter)
I'll chase them anywhere
There's time to spare
Anywhere
There's time to spare
Let me share this whole new world with you

A whole new world
(A whole new world)
That's where we'll be
(That's where we'll be)
A thrilling chase
(A wondrous place)
For you and me

Lirik When Will My Life Begin

7 am the usual morning line up ,
Start on the chores and sweep till the floor's all clean.
Polish and wax, do laundry and mop and shine up.
Sweep again and by then it's like 7: 15

And so I'll read a book, or maybe two or three.
I'll add a few new paintings to my gallery.
I'll play guitar and knit and cook and basically,
Just wonder when will my life begin.

Then after lunch, it's puzzles and darts and baking
Paper machè a bit of ballet and chess.
Pottery and ventriloquy, candle making
Then I'll stretch, maybe sketch
Take a climb, sew a dress

And I'll re-read the books if I have time to spare
I'll paint the walls some more, I'm sure there's room somewhere
Then I'll brush and brush and brush and brush my hair,
Stuck in the same place I've always been.
And I'll keep wondering, and wondering, and wondering, and wondering when will my life begin

And tomorrow night,
The lights will appear,
Just like they do on my birthday each year.
What is it like out there where they glow?
Now that I'm older, mother might just let me go...

Lirik Never Say Never

Never say never
Yeah, yeah, never ever
Never ever, ever, ever, ever, ever
See I never thought that I
Could walk through fire
I never thought that I
Could take the burn
I never had the strength
To take it higher
Until I reached the point
Of no return

And there's just no turning back
When your heart's under attack
Gonna give everything I have
It's my destiny

I will never say never
I will fight
I will fight 'til forever
To make it right
Whenever you knock me down
I will not stay on the ground
Pick it up, pick it up
Pick it up, pick it up, up, up
And never say never

Ne-never say never
Ne-never say never
Ne-never say never
Never say it
Never, Never say it

I never thought I
Could feel this power
I never thought that I
Could feel this free
I'm strong enough to climb
The highest tower
And I'm fast enough to run
Across the sea

And there's just no turning back
When your heart's under attack
Gonna give everything I have
'Cause this is my destiny

Here we go
Guess who
J Smith and JB
I gotcha lil' bro
I can handle him
Hold up, I
I can handle him

Now he's bigger than me
Taller than me
And he's older than me
And stronger than me
And his arm's a little bit longer than me
But he ain't on a JB song with me
I be tryna chill
They be trying to side with the thrill
No pun intended
Was raised by the power of Will
Like Luke with the Force
If push comes to shove
Like Kobe in the fourth
Ice water in blood (let's go)

I gotta be the best
And yes we're the fliest
Like David and Goliath
I conquered the giant
So now I got the world in my hand
I was born from two stars
So the moon's where I land (I'm gone)

I will never say never
I will fight 'til forever
To make it right
Whenever you knock me down
I will not stay on the ground
Pick it up, pick it up
Pick it up, Pick it up, up, up
And never say never

Ne-never say never
Never say it
Ne-never say never
Never say it
Ne-never say never
Never say it
And never say never

Ne-never say never
Never say it
Ne-never say never
Never say it
Ne-never say never
And never say never

10. Let It Go - Indina Mezel

Le it Go merupakan salah satu lagu terkenal dari film anak Frozen. Lirik lagu ini mudah dihafalkan anak dan berisi tentang pesan untuk mencintai diri sendiri dan berani untuk berekspresi.

Lirik Let It Go

The snow glows white on the mountain tonight
Not a footprint to be seen
A kingdom of isolation
And it looks like I'm the queen

The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside
Couldn't keep it in, heaven knows I tried
Don't let them in, don't let them see
Be the good girl you always have to be
Conceal, don't feel, don't let them know
Well, now they know

Let it go, let it go
Can't hold it back anymore
Let it go, let it go
Turn away and slam the door
I don't care what they're going to say
Let the storm rage on
The cold never bothered me anyway

It's funny how some distance makes everything seem small
And the fears that once controlled me can't get to me at all
It's time to see what I can do
To test the limits and break through
No right, no wrong, no rules for me
I'm free

Let it go, let it go
I am one with the wind and sky
Let it go, let it go
You'll never see me cry
Here I stand and here I stay
Let the storm rage on

My power flurries through the air into the ground
My soul is spiraling in frozen fractals all around
And one thought crystallizes like an icy blast
I'm never going back, the past is in the past

Let it go, let it go
And I'll rise like the break of dawn
Let it go, let it go
That perfect girl is gone
Here I stand in the light of day
Let the storm rage on
The cold never bothered me anyway

Neither one prepared

Ever just the same

As the sun will rise

And ever a surprise, yeah
Ever as before
And ever just as sure

Tale as old as time

Bittersweet and strange
Finding you can change
Learning you were wrong

Certain as the sun

Lagu ini memiliki pesan positif, di mana kita diminta untuk menerima diri sendiri apa adanya. Lagu Reflection dapat menjadi salah satu referensi latihan bagi anak-anak. Berikut liriknya:

Lirik Reflection

Look at me
You may think you see
Who I really am
But you'll never know me

Every day
It's as if I play a part
Now I see
If I wear a mask
I can fool the world
But I cannot fool my heart

Who is that girl I see
Staring straight back at me?
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?

I am now
In a world where I
Have to hide my heart
And what I believe in

But somehow
I will show the world
What's inside my heart
And be loved for who I am

Who is that girl I see
Staring straight back at me?
Why is my reflection
Someone I don't know?

Must I pretend that I'm
Someone else for all time?
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?

There's a heart that must be free to fly
That burns with a need to know
The reason why

Why must we all conceal
What we think and how we feel?
Must there be a secret me
I'm forced to hide?

I won't pretend that I'm
Someone else for all time
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?

When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?
