lyrics

Let go

I’m ready to fly
But often I falter
My arms up to the sky
But my doubts are weighing me down weighing me down

All of this growth, all of these new things
Are so exciting, maybe terrifying
How can I let go
When my hands are gripping so tight
That my knuckles are white
It’s easier to stay where I am
Than let go
Oh can I let go?

I’m ready to go
But often I’m draggin’
My legs are like lead weights
And they are weighing me down weighing me down

All of this growth, all of these new things
Are so exciting, maybe terrifying
How can I let go?
When my hands are gripping so tight
That my knuckles are white
It’s easier to stay where I am
Than let go
Oh can I let go?

I’m fighting myself
Stuffing everything in
To weigh myself down
And keep myself here
No need to fly no need to soar
Just walk by all those open doors
And the new things they represent
We all have our armor.

I’m ready to run
But often I stumble
My heart is on fire
And my fears are weighing me down weighing me down

All of this growth, all of these new things
Are so exciting, maybe terrifying
How can I let go?
When my hands are gripping so tight
That my knuckles are white
It’s easier to stay where I am
Than let go
Oh can I let go?

If I can’t let go now
If I can’t face my fear
I’m destined to stay here
But if I can let go
And trust in myself
Then they’ll be flight and soaring at night
They’ll be wind in my face and winning the race
They’ll be heart in my sleeve and me being me
Time to fly and glide and launch and soar
It’s time to let go
Unfurl unclench and let go
