Let It Go

from Hair of the Cat by Englewood

/

lyrics

Are you mad? Do you feel bad?
Have you been had or are you trying not to feel sad?
Are you mean? Do you vent your spleen?
Do you yell and scream and generally make a scene?

Why don’t you let it go, let your better nature show.
Stop and watch a child grow, take a breath and exhale slow. Let it go.

Are you blue? Are you coming unglued?
Is everyone picking on you?
Do you see red? Do they mess with your head?
Are you tired of stuff up with which you’re fed?

Why don’t you let it go, let your better nature show.
Plant a seed and watch it grow,
take a breath and exhale slow. Let it go.

I’m trying to get outside my head.
Try to see somebody else’s view instead.
If I can think about someone who isn’t me, I can be free.

Are you stressed? Is it all a mess?
Do you always feel like you’re taking some kind of test?
Are you tense? Are you trying to make sense….
of a world that puts you on the defense?

Why don’t you let it go, let your better nature show.
Stop and watch a child grow, take a breath and exhale slow. Let it go.
I’m trying to get outside my head.
Try to see somebody else’s view instead.
If I can think about someone who isn’t me, I can be free.
