Call me anything you want
Call me anything you like
Time's not on my side
Twist it in me like a knife
Round the corners I divide
I will still survive
Let it go now
Just let it go
Let it go now
Let it go
We got teflon everywhere
They're kinda sorry, yeah, I care
'Bout what's happening next
If you take a moment, take a bow
While coughing blood, who's laughing now?
What's left to protect?
Let it go now
Just let it go
Let it go now
Please let it go
There's too much noise
From those that never knew me
Opinions from those I've touched
Who claim they know me
All alone in a crowd adorned yet nervous
Scared to speak, I shrink to keep the peace
Hoping I don't shake my purpose
Internally feeling like I'm broken pieces
My past, my presence, somehow connecting
Mirror mirror on wall, am I still the chosen one?
What will be of me if I speak my mind?
Can I still exist?
I know when I'm all alone
I sit in fear I've never known
The world saying who I am, but
I thought I knew myself all these years
Success creating the cell of the oppressed
My existence breaking barriers
And the rest are free
I'm never free to rest 'cause the free imprison me with their ideas
Expectations, opinions and guilt me into sticking to my effect on them
When I'm an entire well of knowledge
What the **** you want from me?
I'm saving you, you're killing me
Won't you let me be?
I've always been free
What the **** you want from me?
I'm saving you, you're killing me
Won't you let me be?
I've always been free
What the **** you want from me?
I'm saving you, you're killing me
Won't you let me be?
I've always been free
What the **** you want from me
I'm saving you, you're killing me
Won't you let me be?
I've always been free
Let it go now
Just let it go
Let it go now
Just let it go
We are equals
But my default
Is to be neutral
I'll let it go
We are equals
But my default
Is to be neutral
Let it go
