PJ Morton - SAY SO Lyrics
Lyrics
[PJ Morton & JoJo:]
It's getting hard for me to hold my own
See, nobody wants to be in love alone
So I'm trying my best not to overreact
But I need to know right now, no lies, just facts
So if you love me, just say so
'Cause I can't play these games with you no more
So if you love me, just say so
I need to know from you right now before I go
[JoJo:]
It's just that I can feel I'm falling deep
And I don't wanna fall unless you're falling with me
I need to know if this is really real
And if you feel the same way that I feel
[PJ Morton & JoJo:]
So if you love me, just say so, just say so
'Cause I can't play these games with you no more (oh)
So if you love me, just say so, then just say so
I need to know from you right now before I go
Just say, "La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la, ooh
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la"
Baby, I hope that you understand
This is for my peace of mind
And I just don't wanna waste any more time
And if this love isn't what you want
Then baby let me know
I don't wanna go but I'll walk out that door, oh, woah
So if you love me, just say so, can you just say so?
'Cause I can't play these games with you no more, oh-woah
If you love me, just say so, then just say so
I need to know from you right now before I go

Meaning & Inspiration
PJ Morton's soulful offering, "Say So," released on February 14, 2019, as a single from his album *Say So (feat. JoJo)*, stands as a profound testament to the power of God’s unfailing word. This track isn't merely a love song; it delves into the deep-seated assurance that comes from trusting in divine promises, even when circumstances might suggest otherwise. The core of "Say So" is the unwavering faith in God’s affirmation, a concept that resonates powerfully with the biblical understanding of how believers are to walk. Morton articulates a posture of reliance, where instead of leaning on personal understanding or the shifting sands of human opinion, he anchors his hope in the definitive pronouncements of the Creator. This echoes the sentiment found in Hebrews 11:1, which defines faith as "the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen." The song’s message is about embracing that conviction, believing in the reality of God’s spoken truth as the ultimate foundation for life.
The narrative woven through "Say So" speaks to a journey of overcoming doubt by actively listening for and trusting in divine guidance. It’s about recognizing that God's word is not just informative but transformative, capable of reshaping our perspective and strengthening our resolve. Consider Psalm 119:105, where the psalmist declares, "Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path." Morton’s song embodies this very principle, suggesting that in moments of uncertainty, seeking and hearing God’s directive is the surest way to navigate life’s complexities. The inclusion of JoJo’s voice adds another layer of devotional sincerity, harmonizing with Morton’s declaration of faith and reinforcing the shared experience of finding solace and strength in God’s pronouncements. This mutual affirmation of trust mirrors the encouragement found in passages like Romans 1:12, where Paul speaks of being encouraged by the faith of others. Ultimately, "Say So" inspires listeners to cultivate an intimate relationship with God, one where His voice is not just heard but obeyed, leading to a life lived in confident anticipation of His blessings, fully aligned with the truth that His promises are indeed "yes" and "amen" in Christ Jesus, as Paul writes in 2 Corinthians 1:20.
