| Somewhere there’s someone who wants you to be
|
| How they want you to be
|
| Their opinion
|
| They’ll paint you the colors that they want to see
|
| And to them it’s Monet
|
| But to you it’s a gray silhouette
|
| So pick up a pencil, a stencil, a crayon
|
| The picture is not finished yet
|
| You can let someone else tell you your story
|
| You can let someone else tell you what’s true
|
| Or you can set yourself free, climb the tallest highest tree
|
| Or maybe sit back and take in the view
|
| Yeah you can let yourself let yourself do anything
|
| It’s there in your hands like a paperback book
|
| You just finished the most recent chapter
|
| And maybe the first parts all gobbledygook
|
| If you’re not happy yet, don’t forget it’s just volume one
|
| The story has only begun
|
| You can let someone else tell you your story
|
| You can let someone else tell you what’s true
|
| Or you can set yourself free, climb the tallest highest tree
|
| Or maybe sit back and take in the view
|
| Yeah you can let yourself let yourself do
|
| Except for things the law says you can’t do
|
| Unless the law is unjust in which case definitely do
|
| Take a more active role in local and federal government
|
| Call your local Congressman
|
| Or Congresswoman
|
| Yeah you can let yourself let yourself do anything
|
| You can go flying or soaring through space time
|
| You can go sailing across the blue sea
|
| You can write down some words
|
| Maybe chill with some birds
|
| Be true to yourself and set yourself free
|
| If you just let yourself let yourself be
|
| Anything
|
| Anything
|
| Anything that you want to be
|
| You can let someone else tell you your story
|
| It’s no big if they disagree
|
| Cause at the end of the day, it’s their part in your play
|
| And it’s your name up on the marquee
|
| You can let yourself let yourself be
|
| What you can let yourself let yourself be
|
| If you just let yourself let yourself be
|
| Anything |
