I watched the fire burn down I saw the smoke carry it away All this joy out of the ashes I would've held on, but I got distracted I guess I never thought Anything good could come from the dead and gone Let it go on Everyone else is having their fun Don't you get uptight, doesn't help none Guess I could get behind, get behind this Let it go on Everyone else is having their fun Don't you get uptight, doesn't help none Guess I could get behind, get behind this I'm left staring in awe So much life beyond my control But it's better that way But all this joy out of the ashes I would've held on, but I got distracted I guess I never thought Anything good could come from the dead and gone Let it go on Everyone else is having their fun Don't you get uptight, doesn't help none Guess I could get behind, get behind this Let it go on Everyone else is having their fun Don't you get uptight, doesn't help none Guess I could get behind, get behind this I guess there's still a lot to learn I know I've got a lot to learn Let it go on Everyone else is having their fun Don't you get uptight, doesn't help none Guess I could get behind, get behind this Let it go on Everyone else is having their fun Don't you get uptight, doesn't help none Guess I could get behind, get behind this Let it go on Everyone else is having their fun Don't you get uptight, doesn't help none Guess I could get behind, get behind this
