Activity 2 : Analyzing Song Lyrics

Based on the song “ It’s My life ” , write your understanding!

No silent prayer for faith-departed

And I ain’t gonna be just a face in the crowd

You’re gonna hear my voice when I shout it out loud

• In the lyrics of the song explain that the song described is not about a broken heart song because of romance but about a song that explains rising from failure and facing all the problems that come in our daily lives, and how much we want to give your sadness to get empathy from other people but people others won’t care about it because they have their own things to deal with and you are nothing to them so rise up and prove who you really are!

2. It's my life

It's now or never

But I ain’t gonna live forever

I just want to live while I’m alive

(It’s my life)

My heart is like an open highway

Like Frankie said, “ I did it my way ”

I just want to live while I’m alive

It’s my life

• In the lyrics of the song explain that only we can change our own lives, and no one can change our lives. because this is our own life and it cannot be changed or even disturbed by anyone because we do it our own way, just like what Frankie said “ I did it my way ” in the song My Way - Frank Sinatra.

3. Yeah, this is for the ones who stood their ground

For Tommy and Gina, who never backed down

Tomorrow’s getting harder, make no mistake

Luck ain’t even lucky, got to make your own breaks

• In the lyrics of the song it explain us not to always give up and always fight until we get what we have dreamed of for a long time, this life goes on don’t ever give up just because you just got one problem, there are many other problems that you have to solve in your own way, one failure will not make you a failure, so get up so you can change your poor fate.

4. Better stand tall when they’re calling you out

Don’t bend, don’t break, baby, don’t back down
