You Still Love Me

I can be a bitch – act like a witch
Somehow you still love me
I can be profound then act like a clown
Somehow you still love me

You can be so messy – making me crazy
Somehow I still love you
You can be forgetful – sometimes neglectful
Somehow I still love you

Going thru this life together 
Keeping it real from the start
Going thru ups and downs together
Nothing could tear us apart
You and me – Me and you

I am never greedy but I can be so needy
Somehow you still love me
I keep growing older – outspoken and bolder
Somehow you still love me

You always disappear when I need you near
Somehow I still love you
You can be a hoarder – bring such disorder
Somehow I still love you

Going thru this life together 
Keeping it real from the start
Going thru ups and downs together
Nothing could tear us apart
You and me – Me and you

You And Me

Shelterless

She lives on the street – dreading every night
Nobody gives her a glance
She can't comprehend – how things got this far
So tired of doing this dance
Bad circumstance

Shelterless momma – where you gonna stay
Shelterless daughter – how you gonna keep safe
Shelterless woman – living day to day
Shelterless

Vulnerability – insecurity
Wanting a place to call home
She knows that she's worthy – she knows that she's strong
Too many times she feels alone
Future unknown

Shelterless momma – where you gonna stay
Shelterless daughter – how you gonna keep safe
Shelterless woman – living day to day
Shelterless

Instability – no tranquility
Hopes and dreams disappear
Passing by the time – waiting for a change
Hates this living in fear
Destiny unclear

Shelterless

Beware

Politicians empty promises
Telling you what you need to hear
Jumping over backwards just to please you
But only when election time is near

Pharmaceuticals major profit
Telling you that they have a cure
Taking all your money and you still die
Leaving your loved ones to endure

Beware of what you believe
Truth is easy to disguise
Beware of what you believe
It's time to open your eyes

Credit card companies entice you
To spend more money than you should
Bankruptcy is right around the corner
Money lenders want your livelihood 

Manipulating social media
Persuading you just what to think
Indecision with confusion
Opinions that change in a blink

Beware of what you believe
Truth is easy to disguise
Beware of what you believe
It's time to open your eyes

Influencers advertisers
Misleading is their specialty
Needing you to buy what they're pushing
Pretending such sincerity

Words and Music by Starla Angus

Beware

Did I Ever Say Thank You

Tranquility

Stay True To Yourself

Got To Be A Change

Too much hate in the world 
Fear and anger causing pain
Could we stop killing this world
Endless destruction with nothing to gain

How do end the negative
Try to make peace as we live
Stop the taking learn to give

There's one thing I know
There's got to be a change
Find some way to make a change
Can't go on without a change
Make a change

Time to start fixing this world
Can't put it off – Can't hesitate
Cause we all belong to this world
It's all we got – Till it's too late

How do end the negative
Try to make peace as we live
Stop the taking learn to give

There's one thing I know
There's got to be a change
Find some way to make a change
Can't go on without a change
Make a change

Got To Be A Change

So Fragile Your Life

In The End

Don't Play With My Life

Starla’s destiny has always been to create songs---her parents couldn’t afford to give her piano lessons but fortunately her grandmother owned a piano—when she was just 8 years old, all the other kids would be playing outside and Starla would be inside figuring out songs on her grandmother’s piano.

Now an accomplished songwriter, Starla has quite a large roster of original songs that she wrote, arranged and had recorded.

One can find quite a diverse menu of genres, tempos and rhythms in her music---her songs include hard rocking, alternative, psychedelic, jazzy, new age, bluesy and even Latin—the lyrics are always passionate and often reflect on issues such as injustice, poverty, abuse, betrayal, depression and suicide—words that shout out---but she also writes about positive feelings like believing in the magic that’s you, finding your dreams, finding comfort and true love.

Starla is proud to be one of the very few Native American and female songwriters in this country---she’s performed at many a coffee house venue and has even performed on the famous Venice boardwalk---she gives a piece of her heart with every performance.
Starla is her music
