Flying straight, straight through the sky Make a wish and close your eyes ‘Cause you’re a shooting star Flying through the sky Shine bright in the night Glowing like 1,000 fireflies Last time I saw your eyes They were sparkling like stars In the midnight sky Flying straight, straight through the sky Make a wish and close your eyes ‘Cause you’re a shooting star Flying through the sky I feel so free like a shooting star I hold out my hand and there you are And I say don’t leave me now ‘Cause you make me happy When I’m feeling down You are my shooting star Making my wishes come true When I saw sparkling eyes I knew it was you Flying straight through the sky Make a wish and close your eyes

When you see a rainbow, a storm had to come first And just like the bad times, the good ones are next Moving along, writing a song, deciding what to do with you (ooo) I’m gonna fly free tonight, like a bird in the sky I’m gonna find the light (find the light) I wanna be be free, let go of everything tonight (tonight) All of the challenges you put me through, I will pursue I will stand my ground letting go (ooo) Moving along, writing a song, deciding what to do with you (ooo) I’m gonna fly free tonight, like a bird in the sky I’m gonna find the light (find the light) I wanna be be free, let go of everything tonight (tonight) I’m gonna leave the world a footprint I’m gonna leave my mark tonight I won’t stop til i made it You better believe it, watch me prove it to you (ooo) I’m gonna fly across the sky tonight to the other side (iiiide) I’m gonna fly free tonight, like a bird in the sky I’m gonna find the light (find the light) I wanna be be free, let go of everything tonight (tonight) I’m gonna fly free tonight, like a bird in the sky I’m gonna find the light (find the light) I wanna be be free, let go of everything tonight (tonight)

Nightmares, nightmares They are so unique, they creep into your mind like poison ivy vines. Wrapping dreams into a horrible crime Nightmares are sneaky and creep into your mind, engulfing your good dreams so be careful Everywhere you go they will be there behind your back or in front of your face. Nightmares will come with fright to give in the plain darkness, where creepy shadows form and follow you wherever you go. Nightmares are sneaky and creep into your mind, engulfing your good dreams so be careful [Bridge] Nightmares are sneaky and creep into your mind, engulfing your good dreams so be careful So be careful, they’re out to getcha!

I’m having the hardest time The world’s spinning so fast Trying to figure out what to do now Wish I could go back to those young days Time flies so fast Nothing will reveal itself and nothing’s right no more Don’t know what’s ahead of me Don’t know what’s in store Can’t yet see the light at the end Wish I could know more Wasn’t grateful when I had the time Life is so complex Everything is changing and I feel like a mess Wish I could go back to those young days Time flies so fast Nothing will reveal itself and nothing’s right no more Don’t know what’s ahead of me Don’t know what’s in store Can’t yet see the light at the end Wish I could know more I’m hoping that something will change That something good will come That things will work out right Don’t know what’s ahead of me Don’t know what’s in store Can’t yet see the light at the end Wish I could know more Don’t know what’s ahead of me Don’t know what’s in store Can’t yet see the light at the end Wish I could know more But I know I can make it There’s a spark inside of me It’s just a part of growing up

Townhouses city lights Ripped gowns and reckless nights All these thoughts racing Through my mind It's raining outside Thunder is booming in the night Why is the sky booming Flowers are blooming Like they should be (yeah) What is it? Not me Oh oh oh oh Thundering in the night Lightning flashing bright Such an interesting sight Thunder rolling Lighting flashing (x3) Oh oh oh oh It's raining outside Thunder is booming in the night Why is the sky booming Flowers are blooming Like they should be (yeah) What is it? Not me All the bad thoughts are leaving Good thoughts are coming The storm is ending While rainbows are appearing Yeah… Why is the sky booming Flowers are blooming Like they should be (yeah) What is it? Not me

Rolling round the rings of Saturn Sliding across the ice of Mars Popping popcorn on Venus And going straight through Jupiter Getting snowcones from Pluto A tan from the sun, too I guess I could get these things on Earth, But it’s just - (Chorus) Out of this world, Out of it, out of it Out of this world, Don’t know where to go Planet to planet, each one’s nice Some are hot like fire, Some are cold as ice Each one’s different, an original Can’t say Earth’s not the best But it’s just not - (Chorus) Everywhere that’s certain I’m going everywhere Not gonna slow down Everywhere, it’s where I’ll be! Everywhere! I’m what you’ll see! No Earth for me, Been there, done that I’m just going - (Chorus, except the last line is: That’s where I’m gonna go!)

Michelle Obama, she rules the world Inspiring each and every girl A woman of the century (Pre-chorus) You will pay the prices For looking down on women of many sizes We are not patriarchal devices This is a major crisis (Chorus) We are the women of the century Do not be our enemy We are not just some accessory We will be in your memory Serena Williams a tennis champ 23 grand slams gets everybody amped A woman of the century (Pre-chorus) (Chorus) Janelle Monae, bisexual queen Acting on fleek, a lean machine A woman of the century 1-2-3-4-5-6-7 Clap with us 1-2-3-4-5-6-7 Stand with us 1-2-3-4-5-6-7 Rock with us Women of the century! (Prechorus) (Chorus)

I used to be a cat at sea Floating about with a ship full of trout - at ease Look at me, out at sea Everyone’s on land staring at me I’m afloat on a boat A cat at sea, that’s just me Eating a can of pickled peas I see no land, no helping hand Just me out at sea Look at me, out at sea Everyone’s on land staring at me Bells in my head are ringing But no cats like me are singing Guitars in my brain are strumming But no cats like me are humming Look a me a cat at sea I’ve found land now I’m free

Sitting on a shelf, all by myself When the cart comes rolling I have been chosen I’m a cookie jar I’m a cookie jar Riding in a car I’m a cookie jar At the red door, I’m missing the store Sitting in the fridge, hot dogs galore I’m a cookie jar I’m a cookie jar I’ve come so far I’m a cookie jar Been moved to the counter Top is spinning faster Here comes the cat, here comes the cat Its vicious tail, swinging this way and that I see the dirty floor AND SPLAT I’m a cookie jar I’m a cookie jar In the ER I’m a cookie jar I’m a cookie jar I’m a cookie jar In the ER I’m a cookie jar

I'm not who you see, I show you what you want Sweet girl but there are layers to me A smile on my face- can you tell that it's pained You say you love me, but is that true You're finding out who I am What lurks in the shadows when I'm alone -Chorus- Nothing is clear, why are you here Taking the spotlight, stealing the show Leave me alone, go back to your home Into your cave, 'cuz you are the monster I build myself up, but you tear me down I try to smile but you make me frown I can't hide around your voice You make me listen- I don't have a choice I know that you're toxic, but I keep you around If anyone asks, I won't make a sound So here I stand, alone in the dark Waiting for someone to light up a spark -Chorus- Every time I see your face There's a feeling that I can't erase You've taken over all of me And now I just can't breathe I walk around with only a frown Why did you have to come to this town You can never understand the shame When a creeper is walking around with your own pain -Chorus-

Life’s a beach cause it never ends The tide will never stop coming in The waves are constantly drumming on the shore My mom told me to go outside But to her request, I denied I can’t get away from everything So I escape myself in my dreams When will my sorrow end When did it even begin Things have changed, things transcend Life’s a dream but I just woke up Life’s a beach but it sometimes sucks Life’s a dream but I just woke up Life’s a beach but it sometimes sucks My shorts don’t fit me anymore I can’t focus and I’m so bored My tears sting like the sea air But it’s ok cause I don’t really care Life’s a dream but I just woke up Life’s a beach but it sometimes sucks Life’s a dream but I just woke up Life’s a beach but it sometimes sucks Now I have some things to say I’m letting go, floating away
13.
I'm trying to be someone you love But you'll never see Cause you're too good for me I'm falling hard And I can't wake up I'm trying to breathe in all your makeup And I don't really know what to say I don't wanna push you away I wanna be with you Do you wanna kiss me too She's not like other girls She is my whole world I know we're still just friends We could last 'til the end (x2) Might have a bit of a wandering eye But it doesn't mean You're not the one I like I may seem distant But you know I'm right When I take your hand And you drift into my sight And I don't really know what to say I don't wanna push you away I wanna be with you Do you wanna kiss me too She's not like other girls She is my whole world I know we're still just friends We could last 'til the end (x2) [Drum solo] She's not like other girls She is my whole world I know we're still just friends We could last 'til the end (x2)

about

This album features bands from Week 2 (June 24-28) of our 2019 summer camps! These rising 5th through 10th graders wrote their songs themselves over a single week of music, confidence-building, social justice education, and fun.

This album is free to listen to online, and can be downloaded for free! However, we get a limited number of free downloads each month. **If you are able,** and if you download a track or album, please consider donating a dollar or two through our Bandcamp. Your donation will help make free downloads available to other families, and will go towards providing more amazing programming for young people in the Triangle!
