Just some feelings about being a "grown-up"... Can anyone relate? :) Written for New Song Sunday-- one new song every week, check it out here:http://newsongsunday.blogspot.com/

I used to think that growing up just happened automatically
I used to think that turning twenty-one would turn me into an adult magically
They're getting second degrees, doing groceries, and even paying bills masterfully
It just seems to come to everyone else naturally

I thought I'd be a grown-up by now
But I still feel like a child somehow
I thought I'd be a grown-up by now
But I still feel like a child somehow

I'm just going through the motions, playing a part, playing dress-up
Am I the only one who hasn't mastered the art of being grown-up?

I have walked all the earth
To find a solution
Now it’s time for the birth
Of a new revolution

Our mother world is dyin’
The children are all cryin’
They just keep on denyin’
Oh no no
What God has made is being laid to waste
No no

(Chorus 1)
So I’m giving my all today
I won’t give up, I’ll find a way

So many tears I’ve cried
With all the sufferin’ worldwide
Now I’m going to pick a fight
To those who won’t do right

I’ll be knockin’ into your brain
Have we all just gone insane?
It’s a wake up call for change
Oh yeah yeah
If we don’t act now, it might be too late
Uh huh

(Chorus 2)
I’m giving my all today
(A new revolution)
I won't give up, I'll find a way
(A new revolution)
I’m giving my heart away
(A new revolution)
And spread this love along the way

(Ukulele solo)

(Bridge)
Gotta save mother nature
Our children need a future
Let’s all come together
So our children won’t suffer no more

(Chorus 2)

Take the pain away
Take the pain away, Yahweh!
(Fade out)

lyrics:
tell me everything's gonna be alright
are you gonna be around?
tell me everything's gonna be alright.

Be Around (Demo)

People have been asking us for an mp3 of this song but the quality of the copy we had wasn't too great. :(

 So...here's a re-edited version taken from the same Portuguese video we recorded months ago (which you can watch here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=suE2bGK6iwo)! 

It's one of our current favorite songs from our lineup. <3 We hope you love it as much as we do! Feel free to click the little arrow to download this track :D

My second original song called Dark Ocean Blue :) 
Part of my Flight of Fancy EP coming out soon. 
PLEASE SHARE THE LOVE :) 

Free for the first 100 downloads.

DARK OCEAN BLUE :) 
I must not have thought 
That the water would get me so caught 
With the waves crashing on the drought
Now my mind is washed of every doubt 

And you, turn my dark ocean blue

I thought I'd live this life alone 
Battling all these nasty drones 
That creep from side to side 
Each push has left me sad and dry 

But you, turn my dark ocean 

Blue like the sky at night 
the eerie view from the mountain side 
Like big bright eyes and perfect hues 
You're my perfect shade of blue 

And you, turn my dark ocean
You, turn my dark ocean
You, turn my dark ocean blue 

Blue is what you do to me 
The color that makes me complete 
The sign that says that you're for keeps 
This time our love is very real 

Cause you turn my dark ocean blue 

:)
