Say Something
Justin Timberlake ft. Chris Stapleton · Justin Timberlake ft. Chris Stapleton
Ooh
Yeah, alright
Ooh
Everyone knows all about my direction
And in my heart somewhere
I wanna go there, still I don't go there
Everybody says say something, say something, say something
Let's say something, say something and say something
I don't wanna get caught up in the rhythm of it
But I can't help myself, no, I can't help myself, no, no
Caught up in the middle of it
No, I can't help myself, no, I can't help myself, no, no, no
Caught up in the rhythm of it
[Justin Timberlake (Chris Stapleton):]
Maybe I'm looking for something I can't have
(Maybe I'm looking for something I can't have)
Maybe I'm looking for something I can't have
[Chris Stapleton:]
Everyone knows all about my transgressions
Still in my heart somewhere
This melody and harmony
For you and me, tonight
Whoa, I hear them call my name
Everybody says say something, say something, say something
Let's say something, say something and say something
I don't wanna get caught up in the rhythm of it
But I can't help myself, no, I can't help myself, no, no
Caught up in the middle of it
No, I can't help myself, no, I can't help myself, no, no, no
Caught up in the rhythm of it
[Justin Timberlake (Chris Stapleton):]
Maybe I'm looking for something I can't have
(Maybe I'm looking for something I can't have)
Maybe I'm looking for something I can't have
(Maybe I'm looking for something I can't have)
Maybe I'm looking for something I can't have
(Maybe I'm looking for something I can't have)
Maybe I'm looking for something I can't have
(Maybe I'm looking for something I can't have)
[Justin Timberlake & Chris Stapleton:]
Sometimes the greatest way to say something is to say nothing at all
Sometimes the greatest way to say something is to say nothing at all
Sometimes the greatest way to say something is to say nothing
But I can't help myself, no I can't help myself, no, no
Caught up in the middle of it
No I can't help myself, no I can't help myself, no, no, no
Caught up in the rhythm of it
[Justin Timberlake (Chris Stapleton):]
Maybe I'm looking for something I can't have
(Maybe I'm looking for something I can't have)
Maybe I'm looking for something I can't have
(Maybe I'm looking for something I can't have)
Maybe I'm looking for something I can't have
(Maybe I'm looking for something I can't have)
Maybe I'm looking for something I can't have
(Maybe I'm looking for something I can't have)

Sometimes the greatest way to say something is to say nothing at all
Sometimes the greatest way to say something is to say nothing at all
Sometimes the greatest way to say something is to say nothing
Say Something
Justin Timberlake's collaboration with Chris Stapleton on 'Say Something' blends pop sensibilities with country storytelling, marking a significant shift in Timberlake's discography. The track features Stapleton's signature gravelly vocals, grounding the song in a rustic aesthetic while maintaining the polished production typical of Timberlake's work. Released as a standalone single rather than part of a traditional album cycle, the recording highlights the artists' ability to merge distinct musical identities. The song addresses themes of communication and connection, utilizing a stripped-back arrangement that allows both vocalists to take center stage. It stands as a notable example of Timberlake's continued exploration of genre-blending projects and his willingness to partner with established country figures to reach new audiences.
