"BROKEN RECORD"
Lyrics by CheRyl Martinez

INTRO
I’ve always believed that you make your own destiny. Try not to let the odds keep you from doing what you know in your heart you were meant to do, b/c after all today is the 1st day of the rest of your life so live w/out regret & follow your dreams.

VERSE1
Listening to all the voices outside me go (wh-y-y-y)
Are you wasting your time get a (ni-ne to five)
Go and live your life already, make that money steady oh oh oh oh
But if you walk a day in my shoes (ohhhhhhhh)
You will see this is my dream come true (oh, ohhhhhhhh)
The struggle the pain where’s the fortune the gain to stardom
Gain to stardom (star-ar-ar-ar-ar-ar-dommm)
All I hear is a broken record (ah ah ah ah…broken-en)
Inspired me to write this record (hmm hmm hmm hmmm hmmm)
Why cant they see I move to the beat of my heart, beat of my heart

VERSE2
All they can see is frustrated me goin crazy
But what they do not see, is just me tryin (tryin)
to be the best I can be, critical me
Always reaching for the stars
Turning my dreams to reality
This is the story of me, so thank you for listening!

HOOK
All I heard was a broken record (hey!)
So I sat down and wrote this record (hey!)
Now the DJs need to break my record (I said hey!)
And all my fans keep requesting my record!
*REPEAT HOOK*

OUTRO
Requesting my record…
Wontcha help me, wont-wontcha help me
Break my record yeah-eah-eah-eah
This is the story of me, this is my dream come true
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh… Ahh Ahh Ahh Ahhhhh!!!
