Don’t Stress About That – A Gentle Song for Kids’ Big Feelings

Don’t Stress About That is a gentle children’s song from SkyTown, created to help kids understand an important lesson:

✨ Not all feelings are yours to carry.
✨ You can be kind and take care of yourself.

You can stay kind, stay calm, and still be you.

🎵 Lyrics: Don’t Stress About That

Verse 1
Sometimes someone feels upset
I don’t always know the why
Their voice is loud, their face looks tight
I feel a flutter deep inside

I start to wonder, “Was it me?”
Did I do something wrong today?
So I take a breath and always listen
To what my heart has to say

Pre-Chorus
Feelings can come from many places
Not all of them start with me

Chorus
I can be kind, I can be calm
I can listen and still be strong
If I didn’t do anything wrong
I don’t have to carry it along

I can be kind, I can be me
With a caring heart and honesty
If the feeling didn’t start with me
I’ll let it pass and not feel guilty

Verse 2
Everyone has feelings inside
Some are big, some hard to name
If they feel mad when I need a time-out
Or finish my work before I help out
I can stay kind, I can stay true
And remember what I need too

Pre-Chorus (repeat)
I can care and still remember
What is theirs and what is mine

Chorus (repeat)
I can be kind, I can be calm
I can listen and still be strong
If I didn’t do anything wrong
I don’t have to carry it along

I can be kind, I can be me
With a caring heart and honesty
If the feeling didn’t start with me
I’ll let it pass and not feel guilty

Bridge
It’s okay if I can’t fix every frown
I don’t have to make the whole world smile right now
I can breathe, I can let it go
And let my steady light still glow

Outro
I’ll keep calm inside my chest
I don’t have to feel the stress

If they feel mad when I need a time-out
Or finish my work before I help out
I can stay kind, I can stay true
And remember what I need too
