Grace attended NC Girls Rock Camp for the 2nd year. It is a great experience where young girls learn to work together in bands by writing a song, making posters and performing at the end of the week. Grace’s band was called Black Rose and here is their performance. The lyrics to their song, Back Off, are reprinted below with permission.
Back Off by Black Rose
Yesterday I got bullied by a boy
I’m obsessed with chocolate
I tried to hold it in, and it just got worse
I’m obsessed with pie
I came back to him and I said
BACK OFF
BACK OFF
I’m a girl and nothing can stop me from doing anything I please
Cause I have power, it’s not just power
It’s GIRL POWER
Wooh
Today I sailed the seven seas
Climbed a mountain
And drank two cups of tea
Because I’m obsessed with a dog that eats pickles and cheese
I came back to him and said
BACK OFF
BACK OFF
I’m a girl and nothing can stop me from doing anything I please
Cause I have power, it’s not just power
It’s GIRL POWER
Wooh
WE ROCK
WE ROCK
Here is the final performance of all the girls.
