about

The latest Mista Cookie Jar single, The Moon and the Stars, is “an immigrant song” for families and children alike, delivering an uplifting message about staying connected, no matter the distance. Featuring singer E.J. Arsulo from General Santos City, Philippines, Mista Cookie Jar introduces the Filipino concept of kapwa (community & connectedness) to the Love Bubble universe. With a dash of OG wisdom & poetry, the vibe is infectious, funky, and heartfelt.

lyrics

We’re just the moon and the stars in the sky
We’re just the moon and the stars in the sky
We’re just the moon and the stars
We’re just the moon and the stars, stars

Scattered like stars
Like islands
Like cars through the city
Like

Scattered
Like lights in the sky
On the ocean so pretty
like

Scattered like sparkles
Like bubbles in space
Archipelagoes

Scattered like dialects

Mahal
Kita
Help Out
Kapwa
With love we alright
Shout, One Love Bubble Bright!
Just spread love
Spread light
Stay kind
Stay tight
This old man, he’s alright
This old man come from light

I come from starlight
White streaks full of wisdom
Call em highlights
I got stories for your soul
And your wide eyes
Learnin lessons from an OG
Wise guy, that’s me
Time flies, I speed
From sea to shining sea
So free like a bird I be
In the breeze
Melodies
Creating this as I dream
Deep in my emotions
Sending love across all galaxies
Love to all my peoples
Hold on tight to something you believe

We’re just the moon and the stars in the sky
We’re just the moon and the stars in the sky

I’m by your side
In the moonlight
Starlight star bright
Through a cool night
Bullseye to the heart
What it feels like
Love straight through the dark
But it feel light
Real life, we apart
But we feel tight
Just a song
But we love u in real life
Just a song
But we sing so we feel life
Kapwa cuz we should
And it feels right

We’re just the moon and the stars in the sky

Translations

Mahal Kita: I love you
Kapwa: community/connectedness, a moral obligation to treat one another as equal fellow human beings
