Fate, don't bother me
I got my own dream
I don't need you messing with me
Fate don't bring me down
I ain't gonna mess around
I don't need you to carry me on your merry-go-round
CHORUS
I gotta dream
I gotta dream I can be anything
Fate can't you see
Can't you see
The dream's on me
This ain't my first rodeo
This ain't my last picture show
I got this all under control
I got this locked and loaded
So Fate can't tell me my time's foreboded
I ain't got no time to wait for Fate to notice me
CHORUS
I gotta dream
I gotta dream I can be anything
Fate can't you see
Can't you see
The dream's on me
Mama says I got it all so wrong
Says it's written in the stars
Yeah, she says that we can't change the future
But I ain't standing for that
No, no, no no no...
Fate, you're the crazy one
Cause I ain't gonna be outdone
I'm getting my time in the sun
Fate, you can move along
Can't you see I'm strong
And I surely don't need you to show me how I'm wrong
CHORUS
I gotta dream
I gotta dream I can be anything
Fate can't you see
Can't you see
The dream's on me
I gotta dream
I gotta dream I can be anything
Fate can't you see
Can't you see
The dream's on me

Helen keeps you guessing. From fun to serious to just plain silly, you'll wonder what she's going to do next. Aptly titled "Speedwritten." The songs were written during FAWM and 50/90. Helen and Val
Val is a powerhouse of chick rock-n-roll. Awkward & Arrogant is her latest release. It's fun, high energy, punk-pop-rock fusion. Written for NaSoAlMo 2012. Helen and Val
The second full-length of homemade, heartfelt glitchy synthpop from Jamie Paige features several collaborations and a New Order cover. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 1, 2017
