Scream

"Scream" is one of the singles from High School Musical 3, and the 9th song on the soundtrack and in the movie. The song is sung in the movie by Troy Bolton. This song is a highly modified version of the song "Say It Right" by Nelly Furtado.

This song touches on the issue of Troy having to choose between the path in life that his father wants him to take (playing basketball) vs. choosing something that he wants (stage, music, and Gabriella). Troy is confused. He wants to follow his own dreams: "the ball's in my hand". The beginning of the scene shows him on the basketball court, but he finishes the sequence on the stage and literally screams. He doesn't just want to be Troy the basketball player. But more importantly, he doesn't want to be away from Gabriella as "nothing works without her". He makes a decision that will affect his life not long after this scene. He was seeing Allen Ford in the end.

Lyrics
The day a door is closed The echoes fill your soul They won't say which way to go Just trust your heart To find what you're here for Open another door But I'm not sure anymore It's just so hard

Voices in my head Tell me they know best Got me on the edge They're pushin', pushin', they're pushin' I know they've got a plan But the ball's in my hands This time it's man-to-man I'm drivin', fightin', inside

(A world that's upside down) It's spinning faster What do I do now Without you?

Chorus:

I don't know where to go What's the right team I want my own thing So bad I'm gonna scream I can't choose, so confused What's it all mean I want my own dream So bad I'm gonna scream

I'm kicking down the walls I gotta make 'em fall Just break through 'em all I'm punchin', crashing, I'm gonna Fight to find myself Me, and no one else Which way, I can't tell I'm searchin', searchin', can't find a

(Way that I should turn) I should, turn right or left it... It's like nothing works Without you

(Chorus)

Yeah, the clock's runnin' down Hear the crowd gettin' loud I'm consumed by the sound Is it her? Is it love? Can the music ever be enough? Gotta work it out! you gotta work it out! You can do it! You can do it!

(Chorus)

I don't know where to go What's the right team I want my own thing I want my own thing I can't choose, so confused What's it all mean I want my own dream So bad I'm gonna scream

Ohh

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
