Early life
Born at home in Triumph, Idaho, Street's parents are Dee (a music teacher) and Roland "Stubby" Street (a stonemason). Her older brother Roland, Jr. is one year older. Her parents decided to let Picabo choose her own name when she was old enough, so for the first two years of her life she was called "baby girl" or "little girl". At age 3 she was required to have a name in order to get a passport. She was named after the nearby village of Picabo. She was raised on a small farm in Triumph, several miles southeast of Sun Valley, where she learned to ski and race.

Still Uneasy
by: PegboyThe other day I said to you
I know what you want to do
I could never sit around
While you´re feeling down
And I could never compromise
My situation lies
And I would never feel the same
Would you be the blame?
Would you leave me
Still uneasy
Locked inside of
Torn in spite of
I don´t want to, I don´t want to know
Sometimes when you´re all alone
Hiding what you´re thinking of
I could never sit around
While you´re feeling down
I could never see my self
Chasing something else
I would never get away
Would you feel the same?
Would you leave me
Still uneasy
Trapped inside of
Torn in spite of
I don´t want to, I don´t want to know
Sometimes when I´m all alone
Feeling what you´re thinking of
And I could never sit around
Chained to frozen ground
I could never see my self
Playing for something else
And I could never walk away
Would you feel the same?
Would you leave me
Still uneasy
Trapped inside of
Torn in spite of
