Song

The Script - Superheroes

All the life she has seen
All the meaner side of me
They took away the prophet's dream
For a profit on the street

Now she’s stronger than you know
A heart of steel starts to grow

All his life he's been told
He’ll be nothing when he’s old
All the kicks and all the blows
He won't ever let it show

'Cause he's stronger than you know
A heart of steel starts to grow

When you've been fighting for it all your life
You've been struggling to make things right
That’s how a superhero learns to fly
Every day, every hour, turn the pain into power

When you've fighting for it all your life
You've been working every day and night
That’s how a superhero learns to fly
Every day, every hour, turn the pain into power

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

All the hurt, all the lies
All the tears that they cry
When the moment is just right
You see fire in their eyes

'Cause he’s stronger than you know
A heart of steel starts to grow

When you've been fighting for it all your life
You've been struggling to make things right
That’s how a superhero learns to fly
Every day, every hour, turn the pain into power

When you've fighting for it all your life
You've been working every day and night
That’s how a superhero learns to fly
Every day, every hour, turn the pain into power (power, power, power, power, power)

(Power, power, power, power)
Every day, every hour turn the pain into power
(Power, power, power, power)

(Power, power, power, power)
Every day, every hour turn the pain into power

She's got lions in her heart
A fire in her soul he's a got a beast
In his belly that's so hard to control
'Cause they've taken too much hits, taking blow by blow
Now light a match, stand back, watch them explode

She's got lions in her heart
A fire in her soul he's a got a beast
In his belly that's so hard to control
'Cause they've taken too much hits, taking blow by blow
Now light a match, stand back, watch them explode

When you've been fighting for it all your life
You've been struggling to make things right
That’s a how a superhero learns to fly
Every day, every hour, turn the pain into power

When you've fighting for it all your life
You've been working every day and night
That’s a how a superhero learns to fly
Every day, every hour, turn the pain into power (power, power, power, power, power)

Oh, yes (power, power, power, power)
Every day, every hour, turn the pain into power
(Power, power, power, power) Ooh, yeah
Whoa (power, power, power, power)
Every day, every hour, turn the pain into power

When you've been fighting for it all your life
You've been struggling to make things right
That’s how a superhero learns to fly


That’s the lyrics of the song. The song has a self-empowerment theme and was inspired by the elation that The Script felt after playing a sold-out stadium show in America. Shot in Johannesburg, South Africa, the music video celebrates the everyday heroes of the city, in particular, a father on his workday. The location was inspired by the song itself, with Danny O'Donoghue stating to Capital FM that, "We went to Johannesburg to shoot the video, there were about 200,000 people in the township and it's a pretty poor area. We went down and we set up a stage and basically this carnival atmosphere ensued."
"We had an amazing, amazing time," he added. "We spent a few days there and spent a lot of time with the people in the township, because they are our superheroes, people who are going through the hardest of times but can keep their head held high. That's basically what the song is about."
The song talks of the people in this world who've been fighting all their life and working day and night to make things work.
 
The Script is one of my favourite bands. I like this song. This song is very good to hear. And I think this song can motivate who heard because the lyrics have meaning very nice like even the superheroes must strive and struggle to get their power and to fly. This song teaches us to work hard and turn our pain into power that can make us successful.

ENGLISH THEME

“Education to Build a Better Future For All”

Education is very important for all people in the world. Even many people say that a person’s behaviour and attitude reflects his eductaion. A person that has bad attitude usually also has a bad education and a person that has good attitude also has a good education. Parents, friends, and his environment have big influence for a person’s education.

Indonesia has a pretty good education. But, facilities that is given by the government are inadequate in some schools in Indonesia. So the students cannot study well. There are some schools in Indonesia that do not have facilities like laboratory, library, computer, and many more. Also there are some schools that will leak when it rains.

To have good education for all people in Indonesia, all related parties should work fine. They have to work as it should be. Sharing of facilities should be evenly distributed to all schools in Indonesia. To make a good school, the teachers also have to work well and do not teach bad things on students like give answer key to the students when it is held an exam. For students, the schools can give a material or counseling to students to make the students behave well.


I think the other reason why the education in Indonesia has not been good is there are still so much corruption that take money that originally will be used to build a school or school facilities. To improve education in Indonesia, corruption must be eradicated and eliminated because it was very detrimental to the nation.
