The Way We Feel is a 9-song album of original children’s music designed to teach emotional intelligence, social awareness, and self-regulation—without being cloying, preachy, or disposable.

From identifying emotions and managing anger to learning empathy, resilience, and communication, each track offers kids (and the adults raising them) a tool for understanding feelings, naming them, and growing through them. With playful lyrics, simple metaphors, and clear messages, this album can help spark meaningful conversations in classrooms, families, and little brains everywhere.

Every song is developmentally appropriate, musically rich, and psychologically grounded. Think of it as an emotional toolbox disguised as a singalong.

Recommended for:
Ages 4–10, teachers, parents, caregivers, therapists, and anyone who wants a future generation that’s better at feelings than we are.

What's This Feeling

Chicago trap sparkle with a rhyme game twist. Female lead over bell motif and clean 808s turns “star” sounds into a call and response phonics party. Kids echo the -ar and -kle endings, whisper then belt, and the hook sticks fast. Classroom friendly, parent approved, easy to loop.

Phrases and Phases Publishing is a one-man label, archive, and reality-refraction field. Founded by J. Adam Walters - lawyer-turned lyricist, satirist, and architectural dropout from polite society - it's the home for songs that shouldn't exist, poems that go to far, and fictional universes with better paperwork than the Library of Congress. 

From folk elegies to parody rap to theocratic cartoon trauma epics, everything here is written by a human who uses AI as a collaborator and instrument rather than an outsourced brain, and finished only when it reaches a space where laughing hurts, or hurting laughs.
