Dream A World
Everybody’s got hopes
Everybody’s got dreams
No matter how small
No matter how big they seem
Well you can make it happen
You can make it shine
And you don’t need a starry night
All you need is a little time
Everybody’s got the power, everybody’s got the chance
Everybody’s got the freedom...just believe you can
Oh Dream, Dream a world..
Spread your wings and you can fly
Dream, Dream a world..
The world is waiting for you and I
When your heart is in the right place
And you try and try again
And you don’t give up, you keep on going
You are sure to win
If you’ve got something to believe in
You’ll reach the mountaintop
Standing on love’s shoulders
Let your vision take you up
Everybody’s got the power, everybody’s got the chance
Everybody’s got the freedom...just believe you can
Oh Dream, Dream a world..
Spread your wings and you you can fly
Dream, Dream a world..
The world is waiting for you and I
[Bridge]
See it in your mind (go with the feelin’)
Feel it in your heart (go with the meaning)
Shape the invisible (go with the fire)
It only needs a start (go with the desire)
Plant it like a seed (go with the vision)
Water it with love (stay with your mission)
You’ve got everything it takes (enjoy the ride)
It’s in each one of us (go with the the vibe)
(continued next page)
Dream A World (continued)
Ride the wave...
Oh Dream, Dream a world..
Spread your wings and you you can fly
Dream, Dream a world..
The world is waiting for you and I
Rap [Underneath last two choruses]
You can’t see the world with a cold, cold heart gotta’
See the world with a big heart, gotta make a
Clear dream you can see gotta “see it in” all you can gotta
Make it work, make it go anyway you can
“And if you go” wrong you can bring it back
Every single time gotta stay the course, gotta
Walk the walk, talk the talk
And if you get lost, you can find your way
Listen to the voice in your head
Let it guide the way oh
“What if a big” worry came and tried to scare you off
Would you turn around run away or tell it where
to go would you
Take a stand, face your fear, be the one you are
Or be “giving it all you got” never let your faith go
Gotta show ‘em what you got every single time, let
the Power soar, let it fly, let it take you up
Let it give you more than you ever dreamed
You can reach the top higher than the sky “and you can make it now’
And you never stop
Catch the wave

Pass It On
You can stand on my shoulders
To reach where you want to be
For I have stood on someone’s shoulders
To get here
I will help you if I’m able
To find what you’re looking for
If I have something good to share with you
I will tell you
Oh I must
Pass it on, pass it on
Help somebody else,
‘Cause I’ve been helped myself,
Oh I must
Pass it on, pass it on
I’ll be there for you
You can follow in my footsteps
If it takes you, where you want to go
For someone helped find my own way
Someone before me
You can take my hand
I’ll pull you up
If I’m strong enough
You know I will
For someone held their hand out long ago
So all of us could be here still
Oh I must
Pass it on, pass it on
Help somebody else,
‘Cause I’ve been helped myself,
Oh I must
Pass it on, pass it on
I’ll be there for you
Chorus (repeat)

Follow Your Heart
(Sigue Tu Corazon)
Chorus:
Follow your heart
Follow your heart
Follow your heart
Let it lead the way
Sigue tu corazón
Sigue tu corazón
Sigue tu corazón
Siguelo como guía
If you ever feel confused
And you don’t know what to do
When you’re trying to find your way
There’s just one thing I’ve got to say
Follow your heart
Follow your heart
Follow your heart
Let it lead the way
Sigue tu corazón
Sigue tu corazón
Sigue tu corazón
Siguelo como guía
You’ve got to listen to the voice
That little voice inside your head
’Cause it’s connected to your heart
Pay attention to what it says
Chorus

Over The Sky and
Under The Moon
Once upon a time, in a distant land
There lived a boy named Phylos
And Phylos had a friend
Butaan was his name and every night that came
He’d sit and think and wish and dream
And that’s how it all began
Over the sky and under the moon
Under the yellow moon
He’d watch his dreams and how they’d fly
Under the yellow moon
The images were clear
Right there inside his head
And all his friends and family
Would not let him forget
And so one day he climbed up to the mountain top
And there he spoke his dream out loud
The dream that no one could stop
Chorus
Butaan learned to see, what others could not see
What he saw inside his mind
He knew would come to be
So he just believed, and did what he could do
Butaan could feel it in his heart
That his dream would soon come true
Over the sky and under the moon
Under the yellow moon
He’d watch his dreams and how they’d fly
Under the yellow moon
He just believed in what he dreamed
Under the yellow moon

Master Of My Dreams
I am the gift
I am the light
I am the thinker, I am I am
I am the student
I am the teacher
I am the seeker, I am I am
Chorus:
I have the power in my mind
I have the freedom to believe
I hold the magic in my hands
I am the master of my dreams
I am the thought
I am the thing
I am the hero, I am I am
I’m not a winner
I’m not a loser
I’m a chooser, I am I am
Chorus:
When I awake up to the sunlight
Imagination is brand new
And every night in the starlight
I see things someday I know I’ll do
When I’m dreaming
I have the power in my mind
I have the freedom to believe
I hold the magic in my hands
I am the master of my dreams
I am the master of my dreams
I am the master of my dreams

That’s The Way It Works
Mirror, mirror, mirror
You tell what is true
You can only show me back,
What I’m showing you
And if I plant an acorn
An oak will surely grow
And you can’t grow apples from acorns
That’s one thing I know
And you can’t grow love from hate
You can’t grow peace from fear
You gotta believe in your dream
To make it appear
If you wanna have friends be a friend
If you wanna be free, know you’re free
And that’s the way it works for you and me
Some people say they only
Believe in what they see
I say see what you believe in
That’s the way to be
Just follow where your heart leads
Don’t give up what you know
Just plant the seeds of your beliefs
And they will grow and grow
And you can’t grow love from hate
You can’t grow peace from fear
You gotta believe in your dream
To make it appear
If you wanna have friends be a friend
If you wanna be free, know you’re free
And that’s the way it works for you and me

I am walking, walking in freedom, freedom
And I'm walking in the light of love
Verse 1:
Everyday I have a choice
What will it be, I have a voice
I have the freedom to make up my mind
Create my own world by my own design
Chorus
Chorus tag
Verse 2:
Will I be weak, will I be strong
Will I do right, will I do wrong
How will I think? It's all up to me
To be the best someone I can be

The Dreamer’s
Pledge To Myself
I pledge to myself to always be true
To what I believe in all that I do
To be who I am
The best I can be
To follow my heart and believe in my dreams.

The Mind Is A Funny Thing
Oh the mind is a funny thing
It works all day and dreams all night
It thinks about things that you’re learning to do
Oh the mind is a funny thing
Got a memory like an elephant
It remembers things – you’ll never forget how to do
Oh your mind is smart,
It’s like a sponge
It takes your thoughts in one by one
Then turns those thoughts into a plan
And then the plan becomes an actual thing….
Oh the mind is a funny thing
It works all day and dreams all night
It thinks about things that you’re learning to do
Oh the mind is a funny thing
Got a memory like an elephant
It remembers things – you’ll never forget how to do
So one by one, connect the dots
Inside your mind with every thought
Let the good ones in and turn the rest away
One day soon good will be coming your way
Oh the mind is a funny thing
It works all day and dreams all night
It thinks about things that you’re learning to do
Oh the mind is a funny thing
Got a memory like an elephant
It remembers things – you’ll never forget how to do
Oh the mind is a beautiful, magnificent, amazing
Peculiar, fantastic, Divinely incredible,
The mind is a funny….thing!

Beautiful People
Oh it’s a big beautiful world
And I am beautiful in it
Oh it’s a big beautiful world
And we are the beautiful people.
Oh it’s a big beautiful world
And I am beautiful in it
Oh it’s a big beautiful world
And we are the beautiful people.
Some of us have brown eyes
Some of us have blue eyes
Some of us have green eyes
But we’re sure lookin’ good
Some of us have short hair
Some of us have long hair
Some of us have no hair
But we’re sure lookin’ good
Oh it’s a big beautiful world
And I am beautiful in it
Oh it’s a big beautiful world
And we are the beautiful people.
Oh it’s a big beautiful world
And I am beautiful in it
Oh it’s a big beautiful world
And we are the beautiful people.
Oh it’s a big beautiful world
And I am beautiful in it
Oh it’s a big beautiful world
And we are the beautiful people.
It’s what’s inside my heart
That matters most of all
It’s what I think about myself
That makes me 10 feet tall
Who I am on the inside
Will show on the outside
And that’s what makes me
look so good
Makes me look so good
Oh it’s a big beautiful world
And I am beautiful in it
Oh it’s a big beautiful world
And we are the beautiful people.
Oh it’s a big beautiful world
And I am beautiful in it
Oh it’s a big beautiful world
And we are the beautiful people.
Some of us have brown skin
Some of us have black skin
Some of us have white skin
But we’re sure lookin’ good
Some of us may weigh more
Some of us may weigh less
It’s not the package that you come in
That makes you look so good
Oh it’s a big beautiful world
And I am beautiful in it
Oh it’s a big beautiful world
And we are the beautiful people.
