The Art of Letting Go
I forgive me
I forgive me
I forgive me
For me
These words go out to broken people, big-hearted people
"We-are-used-to-speak-up" people
These words go out to big-hearted broken people
Whose pain has silenced them people
"We are used to speak up for others but ourselves" people
And if you listen closely, these words might even go out to you
You think I don't know you
You think I don't see you
You think when your insides are crying, bones lying – I don't hear you
You think I don't know you
You try to better everyone's world but yours
For your problem is that kindness reaches the outer world but never starts indoors
I get it you try to help everyone you meet but have you ever met yourself
Cause if you would've, you'd know self-forgiveness starts where all avoidance ends
What is the point of calling yourself alive when your own company makes you wanna die
What is the point of watering others when the drought is happening inside
I'm not telling you to be selfish but I hope you hear what I'm tryna say
The more you do not focus on your own battles, confrontation will make you pay
Listen, you have called many beautiful but what about your divine
Big-hearted, always-speaking up-self
Love your neighbour as you love yourself – but you can't even forgive yourself
Mistakes make you scared of yourself – not in control of yourself
Always loving all else but yourself – forgiving of others but never of yourself
These words go out to you:
If you were here I would kiss you, I would forgive you and hope you'd forgive too
If you were here I would tell you that I feel you, that I really really do
If you were here I would hold you, cherish you for you are human too
If you were here I would pray out loud for you
Sing to parts of your body too that are also very blue
If you were here I would tell you that I love you and it's time for something new
These words go out to you
I hope you give yourself some air to breathe again, love to feel again, faith to believe again
I hope you give yourself to you again and forgive yourself
Forgive yourself
Forgive yourself
For yourself
I forgive me
I forgive me
For me
These words go out to broken people, big-hearted people
