Some people bring you gifts
|
Some bring you bricks to weight 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 weights you down
|
So tell me, what do I do
|
With this backpack full of bricks
|
Of sticks and stones and words that stuck to me like ticks
|
|
(CHORUS)
|
Let it go, let it be
|
Brick by brick we can be free
|
Of all the words we saved
|
Till we were 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 brick
|
I know most people do
|
When we compare, we fall short somewhere
|
It©ös always true
|
If all we see is where we fall
|
We've bricked a prison wall
|
Instead of trying to learn to fly
|
We've taught ourselves to crawl
|
|
(CHORUS)
|
|
We could believe in ourselves more
|
We could try for unique
|
Instead of trying to conform
|
We could defy what they tell us
|
Don't buy the lies they sell us
|
If we're brave we can believe in what we are
|
|
(CHORUS)
|

Let It Be
