Let go
You see that ground far below?
Go to it
Let go of those hands and fall
Let go of Fear
Let go of Loss
Let go of Pain
Let go
There are people standing below you
Hope will catch you
Love will catch you
Happiness will catch you
You just need to let go of all that’s holding you back
Let go of Past
Future will catch you
Let go of Failure
Success will catch you
Let go
You see that ground far below?
That’s your life
Let go of those hands keeping you from it
Let go
