Be Now
Do you ever find that no matter how much you try to change things, things just don’t change? You try to discover new ways to escape or avoid situations rather than face a situation head on and see it for what’s in it. What can be gained out of witnessing this and allowing it to exist? Don’t hold back on how you feel and let your energy out, be yourself and let things be as they are. That’s what I am about in this song. I was in my early 20’s reflecting on what life had taught me up until then. I decided to share what it was I thought I could say that people might need to hear. It’s not a complex one but good to have as a reminder of whats important in life. Let it be now, with your energy you got to set it free and be your self.
The Lyrics
Let it be now,
just be now,
let it be now,
(Verse 01)
Here’s a story my friend let me tell ya,
about how we deal with life
and what matters.
Gotta be real,
gotta have intelligence.
You got a free will,
and you gotta be happy.
We got a lot of things,
and don’t let em get to ya.
The futures no far,
so don’t race to it.
Monopoly we all got an offering,
but whats for me,
its my responsibility.
Act don’t react,
to what your discovering.
Its a number thing.
You win some and lose some.
Yeah you do the sums,
Maths you gotta be number one
when facing the facts.
Think a plan to be exact
have a back up plan,
cause some things don’t match.
(Chorus)
Let it be now.
with your energy you gotta set it free,
and be yourself.
Just be now.
Love your memories,
learn to better yourself,
don’t get ahead of yourself .
Let it be now.
(Verse 02)
Don’t try and control,
and mess with emotions.
I met men deeper than oceans.
A ripple effect happens if you mess
and swim in it.
A guilt trip can make a man fall.
No matter what,
you gotta get up and walk.
And to a new place,
is much better off.
Choose you’ve got a right to,
the choice is all yours.
Do what you want.
Chorus
(verse 03)
Never limit yourself,
to rules you must abide by,
cause you cannot be free.
With the mind I,
think beyond possibility.
Forget the rest.
Live under your own philosophy.
Just be the best,
see we progress
with the attitude,
that we address.
Show gratitude.
A need to confess,
when no one is mad at you,
give it some rest.
We all got a lot
and a little bit less
in every avenue.
Its what you have to do,
that brings success.
Let it be now,
you know the rest.
(chorus)
