about

This song is about dealing childhood trauma, leaning into vulnerability and stripping off learnt pretences.

lyrics

VERSE 1
One day we’ll finally be honest
One day we’ll take of the masks
One day, despite stolen breadcrumbs, we’ll find home again

VERSE 2
One day we’ll strip ourselves naked
And plant tiny Edens of truth
One day will spring up the message that there’s nothing to prove

CHORUS 1
And we’ll let go..

VERSE 3
’Til then we take an inventory
of every childhood pain
’Til then we make necessary
the abolition of slavery to blame

CHORUS 2
And we let go..

END TAG
Oh we fight the disease of resentment (Echo: and we let go, let go)
Oh we fight to be healed where we’re wounded (Echo: let go, let go)
Oh, we fight to redeem memories (Echo: and we let go, let go)
Oh we fight for our freedom in honest
In honest
In honest
In honest
In honest
Let go..

Her music is a call to experience life poetically, to revel in beauty and to chase the 'more' of life. ... more
