Our Music

This album was co-created with two vulnerable communities – girls from a girls’ home and the children of prison inmates. Over a span of 6 months, we explored themes of hope, gratitude and resilience, writing down everything we could and translating them to inspiring lyrics.

studio_recordingThe co-creation process allowed both communities to experience what it’s like to be in a professional recording studio. More importantly, these are the same songs that they performed for their loved ones on stage, empowering them as hope givers.

Encourage someone by sharing the music and it’s message of hope.

If you enjoyed our music, do consider buying the album (digital and physical copy available). Your support will go a long way in enabling us to continue working with individuals and communities.

There'll Be Spring

O barren lady can’t you see 
Your spring is coming, time to sing 
Cast off the ache of pain, the reproach and the shame 
Let your past be your past 

You think you’ll never see the sun 
You’re learning how to limp not run 
You’ve got to learn to live 
Don’t forget who you are 
You will live to go far 

Chorus: 
Lift your eyes, lift your eyes 
There’s a garden of spring 
You can dance, you can sing 
There’ll be spring! 
Wipe away all your tears 
And let goodness take your hand 
Come on dance, come on sing 
There’ll be spring! 

What if you never reach your dreams 
Why hold on to a hope so far 
It’s more the journey that gives life to your dreams 
It takes belief, just believe 

Springtime is coming 

Flowers are blooming in the cool breeze 
Pink, lavender and yellow 
Spring is a lover’s kiss on his lover’s cheek 
It’s my favourite season

S-M-I-L-E

S-M-I-L-E 
Oh you make the corners of my mouth defy gravity 
S-M-I-L-E 
This is how I’ll say thank you for inspiring me 

You’re my guide and my pillar 
My listening ear, my everything 
You have never failed to encourage me and brighten up my day 
Your care, concern and laughter make me S-M-I-L-E 
If you only knew how much you mean to me 

S-M-I-L-E 
Oh you make the corners of my mouth defy gravity 
S-M-I-L-E 
This is how I’ll say thank you for inspiring me 

I wanna thank you for being my guardian angel 
Never forsaking, always forgiving and never giving up on me 
Gratitude is remembering all the things that you have done for me 
I wanna keep you in my mind forevermore 

S-M-I-L-E 
Oh you make the corners of my mouth defy gravity 
S-M-I-L-E 
This is how I’ll say thank you for inspiring me 

Thank you for being so outstanding 
In all that you do 
Thank you for persevering 
When no one sees what you do 
You’ve got a heart of gold 
And in case you didn’t know 
It’s necessary that I spell it for you 

S-M-I-L-E 
Oh you make the corners of my mouth defy gravity 
S-M-I-L-E 
This is how I’ll say thank you for inspiring me

Love Is

Life is much harder than we think 
Emptiness, feeling lost 
Just some reasons to give up 

But through all my tears and sleepless nights, you have shown me that love makes me strong 

Love is when you are always there for me 
Riding through the storms and the seas 
Love is giving me your time and your all 
Catching me whenever I fall 
Yes I hope our love will never die 
Love is standing strong come rain or shine 

We’ve all had mistakes and regrets 
All the scars, memories that we try to forget 

I can never turn back time for us, but I hope that love will see us through 

Love is when you are always there for me 
Riding through the storms and the seas 
Love is giving me your time and your all 
Catching me whenever I fall 

Love is when you are always there for me 
Riding through the storms and the seas 
Love is giving me your time and your all 
Catching me whenever I fall 
Yes I hope our love will never die 
Love is standing strong come rain or shine

Ride On

She was a regular girl next door 
Chasing seconds that ticked on the wall 
Building sandcastles of dreams 

One day, she had a sudden knock on her door 
The stranger came and started a war 
Drowning sandcastles within 

All her crowns of yesterday 
Broke and flew away 
As the dawn broke and senses woke 
These words sang in her head 

Life is like a giant playground, 
It’s a climb up or a ride down the slide 
Your wind give me wings to fly and ride 

Enter pain, he crept by to visit her fall 
Stripped her pride and dug up a knoll 
Of loneliness and heartache 

Then came hope, he came by and planted a trace 
In her mind and birthed daily grace 
Even when she couldn’t see 

All her crowns of yesterday 
Broke and flew away 
As the dawn broke and senses woke 
These words sang in her head 

Life is like a giant playground 
It’s a climb up or a ride down the slide 
Your wind gives me wings to fly 
The bully’s gone now, he was chased out 
by a bigger and stronger Hero 
who picked me up from the dusty sand 
It’s no myth that we can stand 
after the fall and ride on 

Standing at the edge of unknown 
Looking for a light 
Waiting for a sign from above 
To cross over and take flight 

Life is like a giant playground 
It’s a climb up or a ride down the slide 
Your wind gives me wings to fly 
The bully’s gone now, he was chased out 
by a bigger and stronger Hero 
who picked me up from the dusty sand 
It’s no myth that we can stand 
after the fall and ride on

Beautiful Sight

I am looking at my future 
From the ending point I see 
Trees have blossomed, there are grapes on the vine 
And the fields have come alive 

Everything that once was barren, all restored and now abundant
From the ending point I see 
A beautiful, beautiful, beautiful sight 

Look and see, look and see at the birds in the air 
None of them will fall outside Your care 
I believe, I believe I am worth much more 
That You only have good things in store 
I’ll be brave, I’ll be brave when the darkness surrounds 
Yes I know that a new day will come 
I am never alone, one day I’ll see 
That all will be beautiful 

Many times, my future seems to take 
Such a long time to come 
And my hope fades, oh my heart aches 
Tomorrow when will you, when will you come? 
Tomorrow when will you, when will you come? 

I, I will wait patiently 
It won’t be delayed, it won’t be delayed 
I, I will wait hopefully 
It’ll surely take place, it’ll surely take place 

A new day awaits, a new day awaits 
Yeah my future awakes 
So I won’t give up on hope 

I won’t give up 

Everything that once was barren, all restored and now abundant
From the ending point I see 
A beautiful, beautiful, beautiful sight
