Let It Be

I rediscovered my favourite CD from like, grade 10, and this song is SO awesome. Yay Superchick!!! :) The words look cheesy now that I write them down, but someone will get why they're so...key for me I guess, and hopefully they'll be important for someone else, too. *C

LET IT BE!!! :)

Some people bring you gifts some bring you bricks to weigh you down
So they can swim a little higher while you drown
Some people mean so well their way was the best way that they found
But any other way you choose is a brick that weighs you down
So tell me

What do I do with this back pack full of bricks
Of sticks and stones that stuck to me like ticks?

Let it go, let it be, brick by brick we can be free
Of all the words we say til we are our own enemies
Let it go, let it be, brick by brick we can believe
In the person God intended us to be
Let it be

Some people give themselves a break I know most people do
When we compare we fall short somewhere, it's always true
If all we see is where we fall we brick the prison walls
Instead of trying to fly we've taught ourselves to crawl
So tell me

What do I do with this back pack full of bricks
Of sticks and stones that stuck to me like ticks?

Let it go, let it be, brick by brick we can be free
Of all the words we say til we are our own enemies
Let it go, let it be, brick by brick we can believe
In the person God intended us to be
Let it be

We could believe in ourselves more
We could try for unique instead of trying to conform
We could defy what they tell us
And don't buy the lies they sell us
If we're brave we can believe in what we are*
