Let Go

A cigarette stuck in her hand
Caught deep in the undertow
With a mission in her head
Let's see how far she goes
Her lips are burning red
And her face is white as snow
But they’re all left singing
All left screaming
Begging her to let them know
A dangerous idea grows
A slight of hand picture show
Left to manifest in her dreams
While reality just screams
No opinion of her own
Fits neat as a puzzle piece
But it's so damn easy
way too simple
To blindly just disagree
Afraid of the great unknown
Afraid of just letting go
Old ideas born inside of her head
Over and over again
Afraid of the great unknown
Afraid of just saying no
Saying things that have already been said
Over and over again
You hate the things you don’t know
It's a scary place
so hide your face
A closed off mind can not grow
You have to face your fears
open your ears
Afraid of the great unknown
Afraid to just letting go
Old ideas born inside of her head
Over and over again

When you killed your mind
And you gave up hope
That’s when they will say that you’ve grown
When the path diverged
Took the easy road
You will reap the seeds you’ve sown
Look out we’ve all become assassins
Were trained to kill our hopes and dreams
We place the blade against our own hearts
Conditioned with no blood to bleed
How’d you get so lost
Lost along the way
You let others drive you insane
Waking up is hard
But it’s much harder to stand
To stand up for the dreams you have
We have trained our hearts
Taught them not beat
The assassin code
Has made us killing machines
We have trained our brains
Taught them not think
The assassin code
Has made us killing machines
Yeah
When the sun rises up
I’m gonna write down my dreams
I won’t forget what I want
I won’t neglect what I need
A license to kill
But soon will come the day
When you have to choose
If your dreams will stay
Will you break the code
Take a leap of faith
Or will you wonder what should’ve could’ve been
Had it not been too late

Hey, listen what’s your attitude
I just want you all to find your own groove
You don’t have to do what they say
It’s your life go flex your own way
This message here people you better listen fast
Cuz life’s too short gotta make it last
Who’s job is to say what is cool
only you
Follow your personal avenue
So what that you’re so different from
All of the haters and the humdrum scum
Things they’ll saw start creeping through
Don’t gotta change who you are just what you do
When they pressure that you outta be ashamed
For not being the same you just explain
I am my own music and I love how it sounds
so I flex
My pigeon neck
When their words have been spoken
Will they cut through and bleed
Will you mend what is broken
Face insecurities
This song is your token
With just one small fee
You won’t try to be no other
Oh promise me
Now it’s about time I’ll ask you
Which part of you will stay
It’s a big bad world out there
Will you come out and play?
This life will put you through the ringer
Face your fears only if you wanna grow
And if no one else listens
Just go with your own flow
When their words have been spoken
Will they cut through and bleed
Will you mend what is broken
Face securities
Use this song as your token
Don’t end up like me
You won’t try be no other
Won’t you promise me?
Heres a rule about being yourself
Not letting anyone else mess with your groove
come follow along to the song
Pete and logan show em how break it down now
Let me see your pigeon neck
Let me see your pigeon neck
Here a rule about being yourself
Not letting anyone else
mess with your groove
Come follow along to the sound
Pete Logan show em how to break it down now
Boy, you as funky as you look
Get funky with it! Yeah!

You know you got The Rhythm inside your soul
Before you believe that you got it in you
Your body ja-jumps around until you get
Your own groove
Suddenly all your control is lost
You’re a puppet to the rhythm
And a slave to the rock
And it feels so good
Like you know it should
And it feels so right
It’ll blow your mind
It’s called the rhythm
It’s all about the rhythm
That change your mind
OoooOOHH Rhythm that change like this
Falling in the pocket of the song you vibe with it
You can’t resist it when your body starts to jive with us
So come on and get loose get unstuck from those shoes
In the R-H-Y-T-H-M it’s called RHYTHM
And if feels so good
Like you know it should
And it feels so right
It might start with the bass
And a little bit of drums
Play me the guitar
And vocals yeah
Now play me the flute
Come with me you know we got the rhythm now
Come with me you know we got the rhythm now
Come with me you know we got the rhythm now
Come with me you know we got the rhythm now
Yeah common
