  • It's My Body

    It's My Bodyserves as an anthem for woman's rights and bodily autonomy, emphasizing that every woman should have the right to make choices about her own body without government interference. 

    Written almost a year before the overturning of Roe v. Wade, captures the urgency of the ongoing fight for reproductive rights in light of recent events.

    This song connects women's rights to other pressing societal issues, such as gun violence, poverty, climate change, and the right to vote. It' My Body is not just a song; its a call to action for listeners to get involved, educate themselves, and advocate for policies that protect all individuals' rights and well-being. 

  • See Me In You

    It'd all about UNIVERSAL CONNECTION!! "See Me In You" emphasizes the idea that regardless of our differences -- be it socioeconomic, status, race, gender or background-- we all share a common humanity. This song encourages listeners to find that connection in others, and suggests that by seeing one another more clearly, we can foster greater empathy and compassion.

  • Yesterday

    "Yesterday" conveys an uplifting message of letting go and embracing new possibilities. This song was written to serve as encouragement, and the need to let go of the emotional baggage that holds us back. In the lyrics, the imagery of "jumping off a cliff" symbolizes the courage required to take risks and step outside of one's comfort zone.

    It highlights the importance of living in the moment and recognizing each day brings new opportunities. The song inspires listeners to take a leap of faith, "anything is possible" because the "world is yours to claim".

    This serves as a powerful reminder of the limitless potential each one of us has to pursue our goals without fear or failure.

  • Respect Me

    Women are so many things. We are beautiful and intelligent; we know how to get the job done! We are leaders, have served as Vice President of the United States. We are mothers, wives, sisters, activists, and more. This song is all about giving us RESPECT.
