Let You Go
Eternal Promise: Mollie Jess Reflects on Love and Loss in 'Let You Go'
Lyrics
I've been thinkin a lot 'bout the older days
I've been reminiscing about the past.
'016 we felt no ways
In 2016, we were carefree.
Had the world in our pocket
We felt in control of our lives.
'N still not a care
No worries despite having the world at our fingertips.
Livin' in the moment
Living in the present moment.
There was somethin' in the air
There was a special atmosphere.
That made me feel so free
A sense of freedom prevailed.
Those moments soon became memories
Those moments turned into cherished memories.
Sunsets in the whip and sippin' on the juice
Enjoying sunsets in the car and sipping on a drink.
Only thing that's missin' when I'm looking back is you
Reflecting back, the only missing element is you.
But that doesn't change a thing
Despite the nostalgia, it doesn't alter the present.
I'm still out here tryna ring your phone
Still trying to connect with you through a call.
Still lookin' for you when I'm doin' these shows
Searching for you during performances.
You know I made a promise I can't ever let it go
A promise made to never forget.
How could I ever let you go, go, go
Expressing the difficulty of letting go.
I still hear your voice when I'm writing these songs
Hearing your influence while creating music.
Standin' by my side, you never did me wrong
You were always supportive and never betrayed.
So why did the world do you so wrong
Questioning why the world treated you unfairly.
It's like you're still here, even though you're gone
Your presence still felt even though you're gone.
Tell me was it you that sent all these blessings my way
Wondering if you sent blessings from above.
Still got my back from the sky, that's crazy
Feeling your support from the sky is surreal.
Ain't nobody quite like you
Acknowledging your uniqueness.
So one of a kind
You were genuinely one of a kind.
So smart, always spoke up your mind
Intelligent and vocal about your thoughts.
So beautiful and so aligned
Beautiful and perfectly aligned.
So elegant and so defiant
Elegant and rebellious in your own way.
You always got me inspired
Your presence always brought inspiration.
Got me through when I thought it was over for me
You supported me when I thought it was the end.
Stood by my side ain't no way I'd be me without you
Being by my side, I wouldn't be myself without you.
So even though you're gone
Even though you're no longer here.
That doesn't change a thing
It doesn't change the ongoing effort.
I'm still out here tryna ring your phone
Continuing attempts to reach you.
Still lookin' for you when I'm doin' these shows
Searching for you in the midst of performances.
You know I made a promise I can't ever let it go
A commitment to never forget.
How could I ever let you go, go, go
The challenge of letting go persists.
I'll never be the same
Acknowledging the irreversible change.
I still cry when I hear your name
Emotional response to hearing your name.
I get by but I feel the pain
Coping with pain while moving forward.
You always kept me sane
You were a source of stability and sanity.
I won't ever forget your love
Pledging to always remember your love.
Cos you made me forget life's tough
Your love helped overcome life's challenges.
There's no one quite like you
Emphasizing your unique qualities.
One in a million
You were truly one in a million.
Never be another you, yeah yeah
Acknowledging there will never be another like you.
But that doesn't change a thing
Nostalgia doesn't alter the current reality.
I'm still out here tryna ring your phone
Persisting efforts to connect with you.
Still lookin' for you when I'm doin' these shows
Continued search for you during performances.
You know I made a promise I can't ever let it go
A commitment to never forget.
How could I ever let you go, go, go
The challenge of letting go persists.
How could I ever let you go, go, go
Reiterating the difficulty of letting you go.
