Let It Be

	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
	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
	It¹s 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
	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
