There is something in my heart telling me to let go
Put away all of your armor; it’s got to kill me if I want to grow
It’s a choice that I must make so I can be free
The times that you take to wait for all the things that you need
Are the times that you’ve wasted
Reach up from the soil and bloom, “go to the places that scare you”
Shine the light on what is it that you’re not willing to see
We are all returning home
We think we are separate, so we roam
Searching for something to satisfy this thirst, we must turn inward
“Do you hear that roaring between your ears?”
Do you have the courage to listen?
Can you make peace with your fear?
You can wait for death to come or you can take a chance and leap
And be like melting snow, wash away all that you’ve known
You could wait for death to come or you can take a chance and leap
Into the great unknown, do you fear what you might see?
