Lay It Down
Lay It Down: Embracing Freedom and Surrender in Life's Symphony
Lyrics
Wake up I hear
Waking up and hearing something from the heart
A little of my heart
Feeling the need to let go and "lay it down"
sayin' lay it down
Emphasizing the idea of releasing or surrendering
Open my blind
Opening up to a new perspective
A little sound on my mind
Hearing thoughts urging to let go
is sayin' lay it down
Reiterating the call to "lay it down"
But I'm busy sipping coffee
Being occupied with the simple pleasure of drinking coffee
And I care to be alone
Preferring solitude and introspection
On the deck in my own backyard
Enjoying a moment in the personal space
Where the sun shines on my toes
Describing a serene environment
And the flowers speak in colours
Using nature (flowers) to convey emotions
And the birds will always sing
Highlighting the constant beauty of birdsong
The song of a new morning
Expressing the optimism of a new day
Which reminds me of something
Triggering a memory or reflection
Mid morning break
Break during the mid-morning
With little time to waste
Having limited time and urgency
I hear lay it down
Reiteration of the call to "lay it down"
Classes til noon
Engaging in classes until noon
My friend says hope this ends soon
Friend expressing a desire for a difficult situation to end
I hear lay it down
Reiterating the call to "lay it down"
But I'm busy sipping coffee
Still occupied with the comfort of coffee
And I care to be alone
Desiring solitude and introspection
On the deck in my own backyard
Returning to the personal space and serenity
Where the sun shines on my toes
Reiterating the positive environment
And the flowers speak in colours
Nature continues to convey emotions
And the birds will always sing
Emphasizing the constant beauty of birdsong
The song of a new morning
Expressing the optimism of a new day
Which reminds me of something
Triggering a memory or reflection
So I will fall to my knees right now
Turning to prayer and seeking divine help
God hear my pleas
Asking for divine intervention in a difficult situation
This isn't easy to do
Acknowledging the challenge of the situation
So I will place my burdens
Choosing to trust and place burdens in divine hands
In the hands that are hurting
Recognizing the divine as a source of comfort
For me then I see you
Seeing freedom in surrendering and letting go
Sayin' lay it down
Reiterating the call to "lay it down"
So I laid it down
Acting on the decision to surrender and let go
Look up above at the stars in the sky
Looking to the vastness of the sky and universe
I said I laid it down
Confirming the act of surrendering
A whisper in the night
Noting a subtle message or realization in the night
A little sound on my mind
Hearing thoughts urging to let go once again
Is sayin' you're free now
Emphasizing the sense of freedom achieved
