Firstly you confuse things too much by using the same name as an
instance and class method. There's probably an easier way but try this:

class ParentClass
  def self.say
    "This is a message"
  end

  def self.make_it_say(message)
    class_methods = Module.new do
      define_method :say do
        message
      end
    end
    self.extend(class_methods)
  end
end

class ChildClass < ParentClass
  make_it_say "I've been redefined!"
end

puts ParentClass.say
puts ChildClass.say
