I. INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background of the Study
Language is one of crucial tools of human beings to communicate. Without language, people will never able to communicate with other people. Many language in the worlds has a characteristics of a region or country. E. Bruce Goldstein (2008:2) says, "We can define language as a system of communication using sounds or symbols that enables us to express our feelings, thoughts, ideas, and experiences." Or in the other words means that with language we can describe our feeling,asking with each other people, we can express our ideas and tell other people what we want to do.
Human is social being so they need to communicate one another. Every word in their speech has some value that gives big impact for other.
Globalization brings both positive and negative effect. It gives great development in science, technology, economy, education and art. In human life literature as a part of art is influential. Literature is commonly classified as having two major forms; fiction and non fiction. The kind of literature are poem, song lyrics, novel, movie, drama and etc. Song is a part of literature and one of the branches of art that has big influence for the people.
Song easily found in daily life because song is universal. Song or music is very useful since they have various values such as moral, religious, educational and sociological values. Moral values can be well delivered by using music, because
1
UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA many people use song to express their feeling at the moment. Music is often used a unique delivery of messsages through songs. It is undeniable that song lyrics are the dominant factor in messaging as part the frame of the song that ends in the enjoyment by the listener. Or in the other words the lyrics of the song is able to inflict many perceptions that are strongly influence by the level of understanding a person who comes from life experience owned.
As Ursery (2002:2) says, moral values are the people beliefs about what is important in life. Moral values are set of principles guiding us to evaluate what is right or wrong. Literary work were created in addition to providing entertainment or fun, as well as being a means of cultivating moral values. The existence of moral values in literature is expected to generate positive values for the reader, so they are sensitive to issues related to social life and enourage to behave. Moral values can not only be obtained by discussion in formal situations or books, but also people can use songs to deliver the moral message of the songs. As a human we must have morality because if we are not have morality we will rejected by other people and not be respected by other people.
Generally, every writer has plenty of imagination stated in the lyrics. Lyric as quoted from the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyrics is ―a set of the words that accompany music, either by speaking or singing‖. Commonly, there are many bands or solo singer in the music industry.

UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA II. REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
2.1.1 Lyric
According to Dallin (1994), ―Lyrics are written as a form of interaction between the writer and the listeners. Most of the times, they carry a message
(whatever that might be) with the purpose of motivating the listeners, at least, to think about it. Such a purpose and form of interaction are embedded in the cultural context of these people, according to their musical preferences, time, etc‖. Every song has its message. Lyrics is an expressing a person‘s personal feelings and thoughts.
2.1.2 The Description of Moral Values
Values is an important element in lyrics. If we take the notion "value" , we will find out that it is a set of rules or concepts that have a particular meaning for a person or social group and make a contribution into some aspect of life. The philosophical study of values has a name, it's called "axiology". It studies the metaphysical and epistemological status of values, broadly understood. The word axiology, derived from a Greek word meaning "value", is coming to be used for the study of the general theory of value, including the origin, the nature, the classifiation, and the place of values in the world.
According to the dictionary, values are "things that have an intrinsic worth in usefulness or importance to the possessor," or "principles, standards, or qualities considered worthwhile or desirable." However, it is important to note that, although
5
UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA we may tend to think of a value as something good, virtually all values are morally relative neutral, really until they are qualified by asking, "How is it good?" or "Good to whom?" The "good" can sometimes be just a matter of opinion or taste, or driven by culture, religion, habit, circumstance, or environment, etc. Again almost all values are relative. The exception, of course, is the value of life.
Talking about values, Oxford Advances Learner‘s Dictionary defines that it is beliefabout what is right and wrong and what is important in life
(Hornby,2010:1649).
In a later volume, Parker defines values as "either a joy-giving activity or passitivity or else as the assuagement of desire." The satisfactions of desires may take any one of a number of forms : " (1) satisfactions in relatively spontaneous activities or passitivities; (2) satisfactions arising from meeting the objectives of conscious desires; (3) satisfactions arising from the meeting of personal-social standards set for these satisfactions
Moral refers to manner, character and proper behaviour. Based on "Webster
New World Dictionary of American Language", Moral is thing that related with skill to decide right and wrong of behavior that accepted by citizen. Moral is relate to the process of individual socialization, without no moral human never do the process of socialization.
According to Carol K. Sigelman (1995: 330) affirms that there are three basics components of morality, thus are :
a. An affective oremotional component
6
UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA An affective or emotional component contains the feelings of hurting and
concerning for other feelings that surround right or wrong actions and that
motivate thoughts and actions or behavior.
b. A cognitive component
A cognitive component focuses on the way we conceptualize right and wrong
and make decisions about how to behave.
c. A behavioral component

we do or have something that we know is bad or wrong, or help a needy
person.

Holy Qur'an, there are prohibitation, commands, and punishment. Many people appeals to God's Law the ultimate test of right and wrong. It can be understood that religion is a foundation of moral values. e. Formality

3.1.1 Strong Belief
Strong is able to bear or endure: able to with-stand stress or violence; having or exibiting moral or intelectual force, endurence or vigor. (Webster 1981 p.2265).
Belief is a state or habit of mind in which trust, confidence, reliance, is place in some person or thing.

3.1.1 Don’t you worry bout a thing - Tori kelly
The first description is Don't you worry bout a thing , the song tell everybody have a thing like a dream. Sadly, too often, we hear phrases that call for us to get our heads out of the clouds and come down to earth and that ask us to stop dreaming dreams because they will never come true. Sometimes these voices from others, and sometimes they come from ourselves. For far too long we have underestimated the
13
UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA power and possibility that life is the act of dreaming what can be and that we all have to do the work it takes to make our dreams a reality. The singer remind us to belief and optimism in a brighter future when we embrace and pursue our dreams.
Everybody's got a thing
But some don't know how to handle it
Always reachin' out in vain
Just taking the things not worth having but
The singers in this song lyrics teaches the hearer that don‘t you worry bout a thing because a lot of people caring and love us always standing by our side no matter what happen.
Don't you worry 'bout a thing
Don't you worry 'bout a thing, mama
'Cause I'll be standing on the side
When you check it out
The singer describes that we should ignore everyone that is bothering us. In our life fake people always says bad words to breaking down us. The singer telling us we just need to keep our mind of all the people that are critizing us or just being mean
14
UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA to us and reach our dream. Whatever our struggle may be, give yourself a pat on the back for standing strong.
They say your style of life's a drag
And that you must go other places
But just don't you feel too bad
When you get fooled by smiling faces but
3.1.2 Shake it off - Nick Kroll & Reese Witherspoon
In this part of song lyrics tells about what people say badly about our habits.
The lines ―that‘s what people say‖ are a direct response that these people don‘t
know what they are talking about, and don‘t really know us.
I stay out too late, got nothin' in my brain
That's what people say, mmm hmm, that's what people say, mmm hmm
I go on too many dates, but I can't make 'em stay
At least that's what people say mmm mmm, that's what people say mmm mmm
15
UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA The singer realize no matter what people say we should keep moving forward, marching to the beat of our own drum, following our heart, and following our mind.
Everything is going to be okay, it always works out in the end.
But I keep cruising, can't stop, won't stop moving
It's like I got this music in my mind, sayin' gonna be alright
From the lyrics song above the singer tells an old school reference to the habits and personalities of people. ―Players are always going to play‖ means people are always going to do what they do, and ―haters gonna hate‖, means there are always going to be people that don‘t like what the players do. It‘s a universal truth. The counter saying to this has always been, ―don‘t hate the player, hate the game.‖ That is, don‘t hate the participants of something you don‘t like, hate the actual game, system, or thing that they participate in.You can hate football all you want, but don‘t hate the quarterbacks, they are just playing. So people that break hearts are going to continue to break hearts, there will always be broken hearts. Likewise, there will always be fake people, that‘s all they know how to do. In a sense, fakers play the game of faking. Haters play the game of hating. And heart breakers play the game of heart breaking. This chorus is actually a complete circle, but no matter what, always shake it off, that is keep on going on with our life. If we can‘t change the game, then ignore it, because we can‘t hate the players. Accept it as part of life and carry on as if
16
UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA they don‘t matter to us. Letting them affect us in anyway means they are winning their game.
'Cause the players gonna play, play, play, play, play
And the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate
Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
I shake it off, I shake it off
Heartbreakers gonna break, break, break, break, break
And the fakers gonna fake, fake, fake, fake, fake
Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
I shake it off, I shake it off
Now that we‘ve set the basis for the song, we‘re going to tell them the truth about it all now. This verse tells what they don‘t see, mainly because they don‘t know what we are thinking or why we are doing what we are doing. Nobody controls us.
The opinions of others don‘t really matter. We are independent and leading ourself and nothing they say will get us to change. ―That‘s what they don‘t know.‖
I'll never miss a beat, I'm lightning on my feet
And that's what they don't see mmm mmm, that's what they don't see mmm mmm
17
UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA I'm dancing on my own (dancing on my own), I'll make the moves up as I go (moves
up as I go)
And that's what they don't know mmm mmm, that's what they don't know mmm mmm
Instead of letting others bother us, we could be enjoying life. ―Getting down to this sick beat‖ isn‘t a reference to this song, it‘s a reference to the philosophy of the song, that is, none of that crap matters, be ourself, and follow our own ―sick beat‖ or life song.
Hey, hey, hey
Just think while you've been getting down and out about the liars and the dirty, dirty
cheats in the world
You could have been getting down to this sick beat
The message in [‗Shake It Off‘] is a problem we all deal with on a daily basis.
We don‘t live just in a celebrity takedown culture, we live in a takedown culture,‖ in this part of song lyrics explained about the insanely catchy track. ―People will find anything about us and twist it to where it‘s weird or wrong or annoying or strange or bad. We have to not only live our life in spite of people who don‘t understand us — we have to have more fun than they do.‖
I shake it off, shake it off
I, I, I shake it off, I shake it off
18
UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA I, I, I shake it off, shake it off
I, I, I shake it off, I shake it off
I, I, I shake it off, I shake it off
I, I, I shake it off, shake it off
I, I, I shake it off, I shake it off
I, I, I shake it off, shake it off
3.1.3 My way – Seth MacFarlane
In this song lyrics, the singer tells that we must never ever give up on life.
Advice to ourself is the road to success is a long one with every struggle so don‘t give up.
And now the end is near
So I face the final curtain
My friend, I'll say it clear
I’ll state my case of which I'm certain
The song shows how the singer stay focused in to his dream whenever his
feeling overhelmed or stuck in a deep rut. And after all this time he did it wih his
way.
19
UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA I've lived a life that's full
I've traveled each and every highway
And more, much more than this
I did it my way
The singers want to says that believe in ourself, create a paln to make whatever changes are needed and never, ever-however tough things are right now- give up. It‘s all part of the journey and we will make it in the end.
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew
But through it all when there was doubt
I ate it up and spit it out
I faced it all and I stood tall
And did it my way
3.2 Self Confident
The next part of types moral values is self confident. In the I'm Still Standing and I don't wanna song lyric, we can finds the moral values delivered by the singer.
20
UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA 3.2.1 I’m still standing – Taron egerton
In this song lyrics the singer tells how important our caring to others. Some of people sometimes become blind when they are see others people around them in hurt.
We need one each other to make other people feeling better. Because we can see a people smile in front of us but we don‘t know what his/her feeling inside.
You could never know what it’s like
Your blood like a winter freezes just like ice
And there’s a cold lonely light that shines from you behind the mask you use
The song lyrics is about don‘t rely on people‘s opinion and devote ourself to satisfy everyone because it just won‘t happen. And the petty people‘s will be forgotten while we will be remembered forever. Just shine bright like a diamond and ignore the haters.
And did you think this fool could never win?
Well look at me, I'm coming back again
I got a taste of love in a simple way
And if you need to know while I'm still standing you just fade away
The singer believes if we perform absolutely best in our business and in our life, then you should definitely be a winner. A person who overcame the obstacles
21
UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA and has everything normal and even gorgeous in the moment. The singer teaches the hearer no one will ever be able to knock we down because we will just come back stronger than ever.
Don't you know I'm still standing better than I ever did
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid
I'm still standing after all this time
Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind
I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah
3.2.2 I don’t wanna – Scarlett Johansson & Beck bennet
In this last song lyrics the singer tells about once we believe in ourselves, we can risk curiosity, wonder, spontaneous delight, or any experience that reveals the human spirit. Someone who lacks, self-confidence, however, is less likely to feel that they can achieve their goals, and tends to negative perspective about themselves.
One, two,
one, two, three, four!
I don't wanna talk to you (what did you say?)
22
UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA I don't wanna walk with you (outta my way)
I'm not gonna fight with ya (don't wanna play)
The singer teaches the hearer life goes on and everyone should mind their own business. The key of self-confidence is being ourself. We don‘t have to be talented to do what we love, it‘s okay if we don‘t fit in and if we‘re bullied or teased just ignore the haters.
I don't need anyone else (yeah, yeah)
I live my life for myself (yeah, yeah)
I can't stand a thing that you say (yeah, yeah)
I'm not listening anyway!
Hey, hey!
Hey, hey!
Hey, hey!
