Live And Let Go
I put up walls for my protection
Like the castles from the past
Time flies by I know you're scared
You see it all went so fast
We pull ourselves from the hidden evil
Just for that slight feeling of safety
I'm Begging you to Look past the horizon because you won't find what your looking for here
Apathy that's right isn't it? that's what you were searching for?
You want someone to care
Because no one was ever there
To guide your feet as your chucks hit the pavement
Instead you walked in circles tripping on your very own steps
Waiting for that slight bit of connection, through the affection of an adolescent because your to weak to find it in the eyes of the wise
But listen I'm telling you to welcome the struggle invite it in
Because giving up is like a bad sin
Don't trap your thoughts let them free make people believe you are worthy of what they said you weren't or never would be
Confront the fear and say its only because you wish you could be me
Push through all the doubts your heart puts in your head
Forget all the black words you thought you heard they said
Run up the highest mountains because they are small as a piece of sand
Stand strong and create all of your own land
To walk on with your pride high
I know It's cliche but reach for the sky
Open your eyes look deep into the blue
But be careful the clouds will be there to try and stop you
You see We all come from the same dirt
Face the same struggles feel the same hurt
We know time flys by faster than a cheetah in the wild
We know as we get older it gets harder to smile
Because now its all about who your with and where your headed
But don't embed it in your mind find a way to get inside
That will be what crushes you from the heart to your soul
Learn to live and let go
