Anything Anywhere

Legends is from Jill's Upcoming 13th album, "Balanced on the Rail" due out Spring 2022.  

From Jill:  "I began this song in January 2016 after hearing of David Bowie's death, and then following the News of Prince, it seemed as if our whole world was changing and that the music that I was so influenced by, it's authors were too quickly leaving us.  I kept thinking of how I might write this song to memorialize the musical losses of my generation, but it wasn't until the devastating Fall of 2017 that brought us one tragedy after another, followed by loosing the one musician who had influenced my life and who had provided the soundtrack for all of us, Tom Petty.  And in my sadness, came this song to it's completion."

LYRICS- Faith in Me
Faith in Me (Lyrics)
We all know we got to believe in something
Everyone stares, no one really cares I hear them talk but I don’t believe in nothing,
That ain’t gonna prove impossibility is just a frame of mind.
Behind the scenes we got a lot of flavor.
We’re tight at the seams, chasing those dreams
All we need is just a little prayer
Cuz we know you can’t see passed what seems we’re lost and out of time

 

Believe and I can tell ya
We’re all just doing fine
Just go about ya business
And simply pay no mind.
Believe in better weather
It’s only just a matter of time

 

Cuz I Won’t stop, I won’t stop playing
No shot, you know that I’m just saying
I only ever trust myself
I only ever trust myself
Won’t stop won’t stop swinging
No shot, even though I’m thinking
I only ever trust myself
But you can always put your faith in me

 

Did we fall? Were we all misled?
Or were we somewhere far way out of our heads?
Or did we falter? Just needed someone to believe? (Just how you perceive)
We don’t forget about it.
We stand up tall, though we might be scared.
I’d like to think that I’m on top of those stairs.
So when you look up at everything you don’t want to see. (Don’t have to agree.)
Cuz it don’t matter to me

Faith in me

Lyrics and music by ParisAlexa

Yea
 18 years old, outside in the cold
 Where I was wasn’t better
 In this stormy weather
 Thought I was alone,
 Till I found a new home
 I was given a treasure, nothing else can measure
 I found a place that told me I could
 Stand on my own
 Make something for myself
 And it was always inside of me all along
 Now I’m spreading the good
 And I thank you for all of your help
 And it still raining
 But I can’t feel it no more
 Since you opened your door for me
 And it still pouring
 But I’m safe in my bed
 Cause I’ve got a roof on my head
 Finally I can sleep
 You gave me peace

Thank you for what you’ve given me
 Thank you for believing in me
 Thank you for what you’ve given me
 Thank you for believing in me
 Thank you for what you’ve given me
 Thank you for believing in me

Finally I can sleep
 You gave me peace
 You gave me peace
 Now it’s my turn
 To carry on the lesson learned
 I gotta share my blessing
 It’s time to send a message
 There’s so many like my former self
 They just need a place to go for help
 I gotta tell them about it
 Wouldn’t be where I am without
 Without a place that told me I could
 Stand on my own
 Make something for myself
 And it was always inside of me all along
 Now I’m spreading the good
 And I thank you for all of your help
 And it still raining
 But I can’t feel it no more
 Since you opened your door for me
 And it still pouring
 But I’m safe in my bed
 Cause I’ve got a roof on my head
 Finally I can sleep
 You gave me peace

Thank you for what you’ve given me (I just want to thank you)
 Thank you for believing in me (I just want to thank you)
 Thank you for what you’ve given me (Want to say thank you)
 Thank you for believing in me (I just want to thank you)
 Thank you for what you’ve given me - woo
 Thank you for believing in me (I just want to thank you)

Finally I can sleep
 You gave me peace

Peace By Parisalexa (each play raises money to help youth homelessness)

Seattle youth are experiencing homelessness at staggering rates. Sadly, their voices often go unheard.

The YMCA of Greater Seattle is the largest provider of housing for young adults experiencing homelessness in King County, providing 280 young people with a safe place to sleep on any given night. With your help, we can amplify their stories and band together to end youth and young adult homelessness.

Listen. Donate. Share.
Over the coming weeks, the Y will introduce different artists to tell the stories of youth experiencing homelessness in their words put to music. Listen and share their stories to bring awareness and an end to youth homelessness.

Ellen sat down with singer-songwriter LeRoy Bell. LeRoy played in Special Blend, and then went on to form duo Bell and James, also composing songs that were hits for other artists most notably two charting hit singles for  Elton John. Later Bell became a member of the trio Only Friends. In 2011, Bell applied for the American version of The X Factor  and was chosen for the Final 16.

Lyrics - Ready to Come Home
Ready to Come Home
Lyrics and music by Leroy Bell

One day at a time she worked her way back from the ruins that she made,
All the things she took to dull her pain brought her down so low
She’s already to start again
Take hold of her life again
Stronger than she was before
Ready to come home
She’s already to thrive again
Turn around and fight again
Lighter than she was before
Ready to come home
At first it didn’t seem real, she didn’t want to feel, she put into her veins all the dreams she couldn’t dream, but she didn’t care, life wasn’t fair, she wanted to escape anyway she could
She’s already to start again
Take hold of her life again
Stronger than she was before
Ready to come home
She’s already to thrive again
Turn around and fight again
Lighter than she was before
Ready to come home
Never thought she’d be homeless no
Never thought she’d be strung out now
Never thought she’d be dependent
On the kindness of strangers one day, oh oh oh
She’s already to start again
Take hold of her life again
Stronger than she was before
Ready to come home
She’s already to thrive again
Turn around and fight again
Lighter than she was before
Ready to come home

Ready to come home

Leroy Bell Ready To Come Home (Each play raises money for youth homelessness)

Did you know that the YMCA of Greater Seattle is the largest provider of housing for homeless young adults in King County? We are doing great work but there are still young people who need our services - which is why we launched the Unheard campaign.

UNHEARD pairs up local musicians with YMCA housing participants, with the goal of creating unique songs and videos that help humanize and break down misconceptions about homeless youth and young adults. 

This song was written by Scarlet Parke and tells a story about Philip's journey and how he has triumphed over adversity. 

Scarlet Parke is a dark and seductive vocal powerhouse that blends the world of blues and pop together seamlessly. Parke has been performing around Seattle since 2013 and has since been featured as an Artist to Watch on Revolt TV, played top festivals such as Summer Meltdown and Folklife and been getting praise from critics around the nation. Her upcoming album "Flight Risk" was produced and engineered by the dream team Tyler Dopps (Macklemore) and Jake Crocker (Ryan Caraveo) and is set to release in March 2019.

Scarlet says the inspiration behind her song is personal. Scarlet said, “We have both dealt with depression and bi-polar disorder, so I felt a special connection to his story. He mentioned feeling like a 'monster' when he was younger but has obviously come a long way and seems much happier now. The line 'I've got a roster of monsters living in my head' was not to pay homage to his pain but to acknowledge that despite the hardships he has faced he rose above them and learned how to turn his monsters into friends.”

Monsters
By Scarlet Parke

I’ve got a roster of monsters
living in my head
they help me to forget
all the things you said

And life goes on
And I stay strong

Funny lookin’ back now
I used to be so stressed out
Overthinking, always drinking
Spending every night out

Always in my head
Never getting out of bed
I had a laundry list
Of goals I’ve missed
and things I should have said

But that’s not me
It’ll never be
No matter what they say
I’m gonna be okay

If life’s a game
I’m gonna win
I will never stop
play-ingggggg

I’ve got a roster of monsters
living in my head
they help me to forget
all the things you said

And life goes on
I stay strong

There will always be

Monsters
