Let Life Be
I'm so tired of all these rules
Guidelines and how-tos
Just do it like I do
Just trying to fit the mold
A square peg in a round hole
We're so much more than just one word
Instead we like to organize
Cause we can't accept that the human mind
Is much more grey than black and white
I don't know about you but I sure am tired
Of trying to be something I'm not
And hiding pieces of myself for the convenience of your time
And your god damn peace of mind
We like to know what life's about
So we stick people up on shelves
Or in some neatly labeled boxes
And we throw them in the closet
You can just do you
And I can just do me
And we, we can let life be
Yeah
Maybe I don't wanna do that
I wanna try something else
Who are you to tell me I can't
Who are you to tell me I can't
Tryna tell me who I am
I haven't even figured it out yet
Cause I'm still a work in progress
It's not your fault we like to organize
Cause we can't accept that the human mind
Is much more grey than black and white
I don't know about you but I sure am tired
Of trying to be something I'm not
And hiding pieces of myself for the convenience of your time
And your god damn peace of mind
We like to know what life's about
So we stick people up on shelves
Or in some neatly labeled boxes
And we throw them in the closet
You can just do you
And I can just do me
And we, we can let life be
Oh, oh
People are afraid people are ashamed
To be who they really are
Cause all that they really want
Is to be good enough
Then we set limits start to inhibit
Who we could one day be
We let go of all our dreams
And the quest for greater things
Oh, oh, oh
Just because we like to organize
Cause we can't accept that the human mind
S much more grey than black and white
I don't know about you but I sure am tired
Of trying to be something I'm not
And hiding pieces of myself for the convenience of your time
And your god damn peace of mind
We like to know what life's about
So we stick people up on shelves
Or in some neatly labeled boxes
And we throw them in the closet
You can just do you
And I can just do me
And we, we can let life be
We can let life be
We can let life be
We, we can let life be
You can just do you
And I can just do me
And we, we can let life be
We can let life be
We can let life be
We
