Original Song : “All We Are” by MJ Kuok (Personal Theme Song for 2012)
December 31, 2011 — "All We Are", MJ Kuok
I wanted to have a “personal” theme song going into 2012 so I sought help from my friend MJ Kuok to create one.
MJ is a talented musician. He has been writing songs as early as 13 years old and has come up with a number of tracks since then. He also took part in Singapore Idol a few years ago and made it to the Top 12.
The end to end process took roughly 2 weeks — from speaking with him on key messages until the final output which is what you are about to hear. As he is based in HK, we had to communicate virtually until he visited Singapore recently.
MJ has done a brilliant work (both lyrics and arrangement) so I am thankful that he has shared his passion for music with me though this original song “All We Are”.

All We Are
Music & Lyrics by MJ Kuok
Verse 1
Here we are in this moment
Fading by so fast
As we look to the future
Let’s try to make this last
Pre-Chorus
With all we are (x2)
Through times of change
May our faith remain
Chorus
Strong for certain
Love for sure
We’ll be the best of who we are
Until forever
When the lights are blinding
And you try to find your way
Head up, hold on
This life is meant for living
Verse 2
Now’s the time
We celebrate life
Through everything we’ve done
And everything we’ll try
We’ll stay true to who we are
To our friends and the ones we love
For sticking by when times were tough
Thank you for all that you are
Pre-Chorus
Who we are (x2)
Head up, hold on
Stay strong, carry on
Chorus
We’re strong for certain
We’ll love for sure
We’ll be the best of who we are
Until forever
When the lights are blinding
And you try to find your way
Head up, hold on
This life is meant for living
Outro
Forevermore (x4)
