CATS | Memory | Star Wars style (Whitney Avalon)

#CATS and #StarWars #TheRiseofSkywalker arrive on the same day and both contain a respected character reaching the end of her journey. I knew what I had to do: a tribute to Carrie Fisher.

I hope if you enjoy the comedy combination (known character + unexpected musical genre) of my Princess Rap Battle videos, you’ll also enjoy it in a mashup like this one!

** LYRICS **

Midnight not a sound from the starship
Is that a moon or a memory?
I'm here feeling so low
In the quiet, the stories all collect in my mind
Far away and long ago
Memory, I can feel them around me
As they center and ground me
Fun and fighting and fears
I remember the stars were bright and shimmering then
But they've dimmed over the years

Every droid beep seems to beat
A fatalistic warning
I'll keep insisting we go on resisting
Persisting though in mourning

Daylight on the next generation
Our fierce Rey of sunshine
Alongside Poe and Finn
When the dawn comes my fight will be a memory too
And a new hope will begin
Alone in my own ways
I can smile at the old days
When we seemed more on course
I remember the wars felt almost winnable then
Seeking balance to the force

Decades full of snarky quips
Respect that’s earned by sorrow
A lover dies; a brother’s life is over
Yet I must face tomorrow

Princess! How they all tried to mock me
But by now you can't knock me
I'm a legend, no lie
If you watch me, you'll understand what sacrifice is
And a new team walks the sky...
