Lyrics
Some say
Your nice and generous
Well, I see someone that is venomous
It’s not the words you say
It’s what that means
That’s infectious
As simple as it seems
I don’t want to give you away
But I don’t think were gonna change
Some say
Your hearts in the right place
I didn’t know I was heading in the right direction
Until I bumped into you again
Bumped into you again
I know it’s you
One day
Time will tell if we stayed the same
Let me know when it’s my turn to say
That I tried, I tried, I tried
That’s all it took to know the truth
Story Behind The song
“Some Say” was one of the first songs I wrote when I was 18 years old, written during a time when I was still learning how to process emotions I didn’t fully understand yet.
The song comes from a situation where I was developing strong feelings for someone who was already in a relationship, without knowing the full truth at first. As things unfolded, it created a mix of confusion, attachment, and eventual realization—especially as I became aware that I had been emotionally investing in something that wasn’t what it appeared to be.
Rather than focusing on blame, the song sits in that uncomfortable space of hindsight—where emotions were real, but the circumstances were misaligned. It reflects the feeling of being pulled in by connection and possibility, while slowly discovering the reality underneath it.
At its core, “Some Say” is about the way perception can shift when you don’t yet have all the information, and how quickly emotional clarity can change once truth enters the picture. It captures that early experience of learning that not everything you feel safe in is actually stable—and that sometimes, understanding arrives after the attachment has already formed.
Even though it comes from a difficult experience, the song represents a formative moment—one of the first times I started to understand how complicated love, trust, and perception can be at a young age.
