Let it Go

Some people say "Don't go away, just stay right here"

Some say if you stay at home, you're gonna wind up alone

Now, you know you can't go two different ways

You can't believe everything you hear

And if you always do just what you're told

Then you've got no mind of your own

So if each man has a different plan, let 'em go, let 'em go

You have a power all your own

There's a spirit child inside you, ready for life and I know

It's just waiting to see how you will grow

And when the spirit feels the need to wander, oh, let it go

Sometimes they say the only way is to really sing that song

Sometimes they say, "You're singing that way too loud and too long"

And if they can't make up their minds, then I think I'll make up mine

Whatever way I feel is the only way I'm gonna sing that song

And if people don't seem to like it, that's O.K., let 'em go

Some day they'll sing a song of their own

'Cause there's a spirit child inside 'em, ready for life and I know

It's just waiting to see how they will grow

And when their spirit feels a need to wander, I'm sure they'll go

Some people said, "Try this, it'll make you smile"

Some said, "Don't touch it, you'll end up crying"

Oh, well, it felt so good for a while, but then I saw too many dying

When all they wanted to do was get a little higher

So if the game won't follow through, oh, let it go, let it go

And leave the loaded dice alone

There's a spirit child inside you, ready for life and I know

It's just waiting to see if you will grow

One too many

Users lose it all

Then there's no one

No one to help them break the fall

It's people just like you

Who say, "Oh no, that won't be me"

Well, they end up face down

Is that where you wanted to be?

So if it's gonna bring you trouble, oh, let it go, let it go

Remember that doesn't mean you'll be all alone

'Cause there's a spirit child inside you, ready for life and I know

It's just waiting to see how you will grow
