Scream

About Scream

"Scream" is a song performed by American recording artist Kelis, taken from her fifth studio album, Flesh Tone, written by Kelis and Jean Baptiste, and co-written and produced by David Guetta and El Tocadisco. It was released in October 2010, as the album's third single by will.i.am music, to coincide with the European leg of the Kelis' All Hearts tour. It was mainly met with positive reception from music critics, who praised the song's genre-shifting production and the empowering message in Kelis' lyrics. Described as a song which lends itself to live performances, "Scream" was compared by music critics to songs by Dutch disc-jockey Fedde Le Grand, although critics noted that Kelis' vocals were layered as opposed to sung. An accompanying music video was directed by Rankin, and features several different scenes based on fashion and colors. Kelis is seen in couture outfits and neon bodypaint, as well as running on a treadmill in a London estate. The video was also produced in digital 3-D. "Scream" was performed live on The Alan Titchmarsh Show and the Summer Sets concert series for Vevo. "Scream" became a minor hit in Belgium, where it reached top-twenty on the Flanders Ultratip chart. more »

Been running in place for such a long time 
Stuck in a race in the wrong line 
When it all came down on me. 
And I haven't had faith for such a long time 
Am I outta place or out of my mind 
Should it all fall down on me 

Its not enough to live so just dream 
Its not enough to live so just dream 
Its not enough to live so just dream 
Its not enough to sing so just scream 

You'll never know 
If you don't let it out 
You've had enough 
They'll call your bluff 
You cant back down lost in a crowd 
You've won the right to scream and shout 
They'll talk about you lost your cool 
There is no point who makes the rules 
So lets get to it 
Now you'll prove it 
Break out 

Scream and shout 
Scream and shout 
Scream and shout 
Scream and shout 

Been running in place for such a long time 
Stuck in a race in the wrong line 
When it all came down on me. 
And I haven't had faith for such a long time 
Am I outta place or out of my mind 
Should it all fall down on me 

Its not enough to live so just dream 
Its not enough to live so just dream 
Its not enough to live so just dream 
Its not enough to sing so just scream 

Sound the alarm 
Raise your arms 
Your on your own 
Your not alone 
Big city got you on the ground 
Afraid to fight don't make a sound 
So lets get to it 
Now you'll prove it 
Push back 

Scream and shout 
Scream and shout 
Scream and shout 
Scream and shout 

Been running in place for such a long time 
Stuck in a race in the wrong line 
When it all came down on me. 
And I haven't had faith for such a long time 
Am I outta place or out of my mind 
Should it all fall down on me 

Its not enough to live so just dream 
Its not enough to live so just dream 
Its not enough to live so just dream 
Its not enough to sing so just scream
