Let Go
Breaking Chains: Ridge Long's Journey to Liberation
Lyrics
I said woah, I'm tryna let go
Expressing a desire to move on or release something.
Tell me why I'm gettin' high to cope but end up low
Using substances to cope with emotions but feeling worse.
I said woah, I'm tryna let go
Reiterating the intention to let go.
If my life gon' take flight I don't need baggage no more
Willingness to leave behind emotional baggage for a better life.
Let go of my past, let go of my fears
Release from the grip of the past and fears.
Let go of the people who I haven't seen in years
Letting go of relationships and connections from the past.
Let go of my past, let go of my fears
Emphasizing the need to move on from past experiences.
Let go of the people who I haven't seen in, years
Continuing to distance from people not seen for years.
Hello, today I'm feelin' extra mellow
Expressing a calm and reflective mood for the day.
Might get sentimental on an instrumental
Possibly becoming emotional during a musical performance.
Tired of feelin' weaker than a bowl of Jell-O
Feeling tired and weak, using a basketball reference.
I gotta bring my Power Forward like I'm next to Melo
Asserting the need to be strong and assertive.
I know I need to let go of my past
Acknowledging the necessity of releasing the past.
Can't get ahead when you steady lookin' back
Highlighting the hindrance of constant backward-looking.
Runnin' from demons I ain't think they'd be this fast
Running away from problems that unexpectedly catch up.
Say they need me then they stab me in the back
Experiencing betrayal from those who claim to need you.
The devil come disguised in many sizes
Warning about the deceptive nature of negative influences.
See him in the eyes of the woman who once was my chick
Noticing betrayal in the eyes of a past romantic partner.
The devil will trick you to use your vices
Explaining how vices can be manipulated by negative forces.
Happiness it brings make you forget how rough your life is
Temporary pleasure can lead to prolonged suffering.
Temporary pleasure brings a life of pain
Reflecting on the consequences of seeking short-term happiness.
Your heart will turn to ice when you live by the flame
Emphasizing the emotional toll of living recklessly.
Once you realize you the treasure you don't think the same
Realizing self-worth changes perspective.
Can't control the weather but you can see the sun when it rain
Finding positivity even in challenging situations.
Dig a little deeper forget what they teach us
Encouraging a deeper understanding beyond conventional wisdom.
Cause when you speak your dreams they gon' say you reachin
Anticipating skepticism when sharing ambitious dreams.
Couldn't achieve it, so they just don't believe it
Others may doubt your abilities if they haven't achieved similar.
They ain't have faith in themselves, to make it you need it
Having faith in oneself is crucial for success.
But they always nosey in my business, Mr. Feeney
People being intrusive, referencing Mr. Feeney from "Boy Meets World."
Been goin' hard for a minute bitch I know you seen me
Noticing attention and recognition for hard work.
I only got one wish don't need the three forget the genie
Expressing a singular desire without unnecessary extras.
To live the life I dreamed of so everyday I'm dreaming
Pursuing a dream life with daily dedication.
I said woah, I'm tryna let go
Repeating the desire to let go for emphasis.
Tell me why I'm gettin' high to cope but end up low
Questioning the effectiveness of using substances to cope.
I said woah, I'm tryna let go
Reiterating the intention to let go of burdens.
If my life gon' take flight I don't need baggage no more
Connecting life's journey to a flight and shedding baggage.
Let go of my past, let go of my fears
Continuing the theme of releasing the past and fears.
Let go of the people who I haven't seen in years
Letting go of people not seen for an extended period.
Let go of my past, let go of my fears
Stressing the importance of moving forward without past baggage.
Let go of the people who I haven't seen in, years
Repeating the idea of distancing from people not seen in years.
