Superchick - Let It Be lyrics

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

And sticks and stones and words that stuck to me like chicks

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

It's 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

So tell me what do I do with this backpack full of bricks

And sticks and stones and words that stuck to me like chicks

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

We could believe in ourselves, more, we could try for unique

Instead of trying to conform

We could defy what they tell us

And don't buy the lies they sell us

If we're brave we can believe in what we are

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

Oh, let it be
