So, this is the "YPI Song" that I wrote in 2007 that has seemed to resonate so well with campers, young and old. I wrote it compiled from my own feelings about camp and through a series of interviews and casual conversations with campers about why they loved YPI, why they come back and what is so special about the place that makes it a "state of mind." This emotion is hard to encapsulate and express through words, it's just something that you know. This goes out to everybody at YPI, past, present and future, and to everybody who is still searching for a place that makes them feel like they are really at peace and at home. 

Lyrics:

Home once again, I find myself amongst my friends
Trying to find beginnings to the ends
Four sides of family surround me and change me
And my mind, is here, all year long

She's my refuge, my aid to my self discovery
She calms me and soothes me with her serenity
The atmosphere is filled with motivation
And I find, you're with me, all year long

It's a beautiful place where the inside comes out
A different part of yourself comes about
You can rid your mind of self doubt
It's not just my home, it's my state of mind

It's a puzzle that's perfectly put together
It's always sunny, no matter the weather
We're all birds of the same feather
And my heart is here, all year long

Well, Sal is playing with the breeze on its way
He's always got a smile, something encouraging to say
He's a part of my life, he's there everyday
And the music is here, all year long

Chorus X2

Home is what you make it
Home is where you take it
Home is what you make it
Home is where you take it
...Yeah

My Home

First song I have written in a long time. Hope you like it.

Echoes of Solitude

Haven't written a song in a few months, so it felt slightly inorganic that my inspiration for writing a song was that I had no inspiration. Ironic I suppose. Hope you enjoy it, it's not completely polished but whatever close enough for jazz.
