Reviving the We Are OCSA Song

Kate Um

WE ARE OCSA Lip-Dub. Amassing approximately 9,600 views, this music video by the OCSA Show Youtube channel has become our unspoken anthem song. It speaks to OCSA’s legacy, from the past orientation dance lessons to the canon moment where students stumble upon the music video one dawdling day. This was even the graduation song for the Class of 2017 and 2020. Either way, the impact has remained strong in the upper-grade levels, but seems to be losing some of its touch with the lower-grade levels. Therefore, I have a proposal for keeping this original song alive: give it a twist yearly by adding another song verse. 

The senior class will have the greatest authority over OCSA’s song legacy, since many have charted the long four to six years here and are entrusted to portray our school. Therefore, let each senior class add a bit of spice to the song annually. Perhaps with the song feeling closer to the senior class each year with fresh lyrics and grooves, we can resurrect this song for the future years to come. By the years to come, it’d be cool to see ongoing song memorabilia by each OCSA class. As a senior myself, I’ll suggest starting this year’s rendition with some UK-rap styled bars:

ORIGINAL WE ARE OCSA SONG CHORUS

The sights, the sounds, the energy

The feeling that we make the dream

This is where it goes on and on

On and on and on

NEW VERSE! *insert trap beat and Central Cee*

O-C-S-A we the best

Seven floors up top 

Yes we ranking best 

The mandem don’t got anything stacked (they’re meek)

We got artistry, dodgeball and our tech weeks (BEAT DROP)

Seven stories

17 conservatories

This is where it’s at 

This is what we got

This the school where it’s at at at

Oh! this is where it goes on and on… (REVERT TO OG CHORUS)
