III. Songs 
 
One Last Look​ ​- The song is all about of a perspective of the person’s sentiment towards 
something. From this song it will about the place that he will leave soon after graduation. 
School. The song gives you that longing feeling of something sentimental that you could 
have but never in reality. 
 
A Rocket To Mars​ - The idea behind this song is that by imagining that you 
you have a rocket ship that will fly to Mars and eventually facing challenges. And it gives 
you that old school punk feel once you listen to it. 
 
Chance​ - In life, some people just give up and then they let the world judge 
them for who they are. In this song, it’s all about fighting back for what’s yours.

2. Macky Novera​ - Started learning music around 14 years old. The time when he

A. Lyrics 
 
One Last Look 
 
Verse I 
So I’m alone with the moon 
And I know I will leave you soon 
Why must this be 
Will you still remember me 
 
Chorus  
I have to go 
But I just want you to know 
 
My heart, it bleeds 
So give me one last look 
before you’re just a dream

Verse II 
I wish that I told you sooner 
What I really felt inside 
Now every hope of us 
Is only in my mind 
 
Chorus  
 
I have to go 
But I just want you to know 
My heart, it bleeds 
So give me one last look 
before you’re just a dream 
 
Bridge  
And now you’re gone 
And now you’re gone 
And now you’re gone 
And now you’re gone

I have to go 
But I just want you to know 
My heart, it bleeds 
So give me one last look   
before you’re just a dream

A Rocket To Mars 
 
Verse I 
 
One day I had a dream 
What it means to be free 
So my friends called me 
To build something we foresee 
 
Chorus 
 
I’m gonna fly to the sky 
No matter how high 
If they can do it 
I know i can do it 
 
On the way to the red planet 
The martians there might have skynet 
Anyway we’re going somewhere far 
Cuz we’re building a rocket to mars

Verse II 
 
We found ourselves in a junkyard 
Priceless things in a boulevard 
Scraps of a spaceship 
We found something that’s built on friendship 
 
 
 
Chance 
 
Verse I 
 
Another day on the street 
Got beaten up and never admit defeat 
So I stand up and pray 
To be alive for another day 
 
Chorus 
 
And I fall again 
But this time I won’t give up 
Cuz I will move forward 
To see the light of hope again

If I ever cry once more 
I won’t avoid the things I ignore 
Look up high, take a glance 
For in life there’s another chance 
 
Verse II 
 
I’m in my room wondering 
If I’ll ever be great 
On this twist of fate 
Maybe this time, it’s too late
