My favorite color

I see the stories in your face, each line a tale of fight, But in your eyes, I find the strength that makes my world feel right. You’ve taught me how to stand tall, how to brave the darkest night, And in your arms, I’ve found my space, where everything’s just right. Through the pain and all the struggles, through storms that rage above, Know that I am here, wrapped in your unending love. Though the world might twist and turn, and shadows come around, My heart will stay so strong, my feet planted on solid ground. For every time you picked me up, when I stumbled and fell, For every moment of laughter, like magic from a spell, I hold each moment close, I treasure every day, ’Cause with your love, dear Daddy, I’ve found my way. Through the pain and all the struggles, through storms that rage above, Know that I am here, wrapped in your unending love. Though the world might twist and turn, and shadows come around, My heart will stay so strong, my feet planted on solid ground. So take a breath and rest, let go of all your fears, ’Cause in my heart, dear Daddy, our love will last for years. In every soft whisper, in every quiet night, I’ll say it once again, your love is my guiding light.

[Intro] Like this, like that, mmhmm Like this, like that, haha [Verse 1] When it comes to him, he says, “It’s like this,” Doesn’t even know who he’s dealing with. Before he showed up, I saw him coming, Another one? Please, they’re all just running. Cut. Copy. Paste. Same old game. Different name, but the boys don’t change. [Chorus] Boys like this, boys like that, haha They think they know, but they fall flat, haha Boys will learn this, they’ll learn that, haha Girls, why we always gotta teach them? Facts! [Verse 2] Oh, yeah, gaslighting me? Someone get a hose, this fire’s weak. They call themselves “alpha,” that’s so cute, But this queen’s got no time to dispute. Step aside, boy, let me take the lead, Your outdated vibe’s not what I need. [Chorus] Boys like this, boys like that, haha They think they know, but they fall flat, haha Boys will learn this, they’ll learn that, haha Girls, why we always gotta teach them? Facts! [Bridge – Call and Response (Background Vocals) Lead: “Why they act so loud?” Girls: “Overcompensating now!” Lead: “Why they think they’re kings?” Girls: “We’re the ones ruling everything!” [Breakdown] Step back, boy, take a seat, Your energy’s tired, can’t compete. We’ve been here, we’ve done that, You’re just a rerun, same old act. [Final Chorus] Boys like this, boys like that, haha They think they know, but they fall flat, haha Boys will learn this, they’ll learn that, haha Girls, why we always gotta teach them? Facts! [Outro] Like this, like that, mmhmm Like this, like that, haha Girls, we run this, that’s a wrap, haha Like this, like that—know your facts!

"Too Soon to Say" (4/4 Time Signature, Key: C Major) [Verse 1] Your voice feels like a song I know, Soft and steady, it starts to grow. Every word feels like a spark, Lighting corners of my heart. But it’s early, I remind myself, I keep my thoughts on a higher shelf. What if I’m wrong? What if I fall? What if I don’t know you at all? [Chorus] It’s too soon to say, too soon to try, I don’t want to scare you or make you shy. I hold these feelings, let them stay, It’s too soon to give it all away. [Verse 2] I listen close to every sound, Each little pause, the way it’s bound. You’re a mystery I want to unfold, But I’m scared to let the truth be told. What if you laugh? What if you leave? What if I lose what I’ve started to believe? So I keep it quiet, a silent refrain, Hoping time will ease the strain. [Chorus] It’s too soon to say, too soon to try, I don’t want to scare you or make you shy. I hold these feelings, let them stay, It’s too soon to give it all away. [Bridge] I’m caught in a moment, a fragile thread, Balancing the words I’ve left unsaid. What if you’re feeling the same as me? But what if you’re not, and I set us free? [Chorus] It’s too soon to say, too soon to try, I don’t want to scare you or make you shy. I hold these feelings, let them stay, It’s too soon to give it all away. [Outro] So I’ll wait, let the silence grow, See where this connection wants to go. Your voice is enough for one more day, It’s too soon to throw my heart your way.

(Verse 1) In the quiet of the night, under silver moonlight, A little gnome tiptoed, feeling quite alright. With a twinkle in his eye and a rumble in his tummy, He spotted something shiny, oh, it looked so yummy! (Chorus) I ate your box, BAM! Right off your porch! Thought it was a treasure, but it’s just my torch. Wrapped up all the goodies, oh, what a feast! I ate your box, BAM! Now I’m the gnome at least! (Verse 2) It was tucked in by the door, with a label so bright, But to me, it was dinner in the dead of night. I pulled off the tape, oh, what a delight, Unboxing my adventure in the pale moonlight. (Chorus) I ate your box, BAM! Right off your porch! Thought it was a treasure, but it’s just my torch. Wrapped up all the goodies, oh, what a feast! I ate your box, BAM! Now I’m the gnome at least! (Bridge) So if you find it missing, don’t you get upset, Just look for a gnome with a smile, you’ll bet! I’m dancing with the leftovers, feeling so free, In my gnome-sized kingdom, it’s just you and me! (Chorus) I ate your box, BAM! Right off your porch! Thought it was a treasure, but it’s just my torch. Wrapped up all the goodies, oh, what a feast! I ate your box, BAM! Now I’m the gnome at least! (Outro) So if you hear a giggle when the stars are aglow, Just remember this tale of the gnome you don’t know. With a heart full of mischief and a belly that’s round, I’ll keep munching on surprises that I’ve cleverly found! I ate your box, BAM! And oh, what a treat, This little gnome’s hunger is never discreet!

Yeah, this goes out to Arvin... Too many years, too many groans. You had us all laughing... at first. But now, it’s time... Every time I hear that pun, it feels like a crime, Arvin's jokes ruined every year of my prime. From "Why did the chicken?" to “Walk into the bar,” His bad humor stretched too far. Late nights, groaning while we prayed he'd stop, But Arvin kept dropping puns like they were hot. We warned him, "Man, you're killing the vibe," Now he's got a one-way ticket, end of the ride. Every joke you take, every pun you make, Every laugh that’s fake, all the groans we ache, Arvin, now you pay, for all our wasted days, You’ll be... executed today. Arvin, you knew we cared, but you couldn’t refrain, Years of bad jokes brought nothing but pain. Dad jokes, worse jokes, puns on repeat, Your wordplay crimes had us beat. At first, it was cute, a chuckle or two, But then your jokes turned into a form of abuse. We had enough, took you to the court, Judge said, “For this, there’s no retort.” Every pun you write, every setup’s plight, Every punchline's slight, every ruined night, Arvin, it's no use, there's no excuse, Your jokes… led to your noose. Memories... of the days you joked carefree, Turned into nightmares haunting me. I wish you'd stopped before this fate, But now it’s too late, it's too late… So here’s to Arvin... for the years he destroyed. The dad jokes, the cringe, the laughter alloyed. We won’t forget you... though we’ll surely try, Now your bad jokes fade, as you say goodbye. Every pun you make, every laugh we fake, Arvin, your mistakes, were too much to take, Now we’re free at last, from your joke-filled past, Goodbye... forever at last.

[Verse] Triple-digit summer heat feels wrong Jingle bells in scorching sun Chillin' under palm trees feels off Christmas in swelter can't be fun [Verse 2] Ain't no snow just burning sand Santa's in a surfboard stance Erin's coughing can't shake it off Mike's stuck in quarantine trance [Chorus] Covid blues hit our summer cheer Spreadin’ fast just like wildfire Maskin' up ain't no festive gear Hopes to light that Yule log fire [Bridge] Camera snaps empty chairs Supposed to be filled with laughter Virtual hugs and distanced prayers Graspin’ for better chapters [Verse 3] Can't taste eggnog can't smell pine Diagnosis drops like lead All the joy on a thin line Hanging lights to spite the dread [Verse 4] Sunburns where the snow should lay Silent nights don't feel so tight Looking for some light in gray Wishin' things would turn out right

You were loved by everyone you knew We all felt at home when we were with you Then you went and passed and left us But we know you're not really gone because we hold you jn our hearts forever long. But we know it's gonna be hard And we're gonna be left with our scars But we know you're not really gone Cos we hold you in our hearts forever long So we look up at the stars and we look down at our hearts And we see yiur charming smile Making our day worth while Cos we know that you're there And we know that you care And it's so hard that we can't bear But we know it's gonna be hard And we're gonna be left with our scars But we know your not really gone Cos we hold you in our hearts Forver long

[Verse] Splash goes the puddle on my shoes Rain's falling hard I got the blues Cars zoom past in a blurry race Life's a mess and I can't find my place [Verse 2] Wipers slashing through a stormy sky Lightning flashes makes me wonder why Chaos brews with every single beat Politician's lies are on repeat [Chorus] Laura's nightmare in the rain Under streetlights feels the pain World's a stage and we're the cast Future's shaky shadows past [Bridge] Foggy windows dreams unclear Echoes of all that I used to fear Destiny's a game and I'm losing fast Barely holding on will this last [Verse 3] Street signs blurred can't find my way Muddy roads where hope decays Voices murmur secrets in the dark In a world that's lost its spark [Chorus] Laura's nightmare in the rain Under streetlights feels the pain World's a stage and we're the cast Future's shaky shadows past

[Verse] Found a key under the mat Heard our song and that was that Drank the sunshine from a glass Had to wonder could this last [Verse 2] Saw the colors on your sleeve Every whisper you believe Let the morning fill our eyes Walking skies in our disguise [Chorus] I love you you love me Hand in hand we're wild and free Every heartbeat syncs in time Dancing to our secret rhyme [Bridge] Painted dreams on empty walls Caught our shadows in the halls Laughed at stars that tried to climb Made a world beyond the rhyme [Verse 3] Wrapped in moments quick and bright Chasing echoes in the night Tripped on words we never said Dreams were spinning in our head [Chorus] I love you you love me Hand in hand we're wild and free Every heartbeat syncs in time Dancing to our secret rhyme

[Verse] Mother hear me calling In the night the shadows fall Broken dreams and heartache In the darkness hear me crawl [Verse 2] Mother hold my hand tight As the storm begins to rage Lost souls in the twilight Breaking free from the cage [Chorus] Mother can you see me Rising from the ashes high Through the flames and fury In your arms I’ll never die [Verse 3] Mother don’t you worry I will fight the demons here With a heart that’s burning I will conquer all my fear [Bridge] Mother heartbeats whisper Secrets in the midnight air In your love I find light In your care I find my prayer [Chorus] Mother can you see me Rising from the ashes high Through the flames and fury In your arms I’ll never die

[Verse] In the quiet of the night where shadows softly fall I trace the lines of memories like writing on the wall A love once vibrant now echoes in the air Fading like a melody too painful to bear [Chorus] You were the light in my darkest day Now only shadows in the hallway I call your name but there's no reply Just the silence as I say goodbye [Verse 2] Your laughter lingers but your smile's long gone A haunting tune from a broken song I reach for you in dreams that fade away Waking up to find a brand new day [Bridge] Reflections in the mirror of what used to be A picture-perfect world that's lost at sea You carved your name into my heart's own door Now it's just a scar and nothing more [Chorus] You were the light in my darkest day Now only shadows in the hallway I call your name but there's no reply Just the silence as I say goodbye [Verse 3] The stars above they don't shine as bright Ever since you left me on that fateful night I hold onto the whispers of your touch Knowing deep inside I miss you much
