Let Go (James Bay)

Verse 1: Vessel
Going nowhere fast like a whip on some bricks
I apologize for problems that I couldn't fix
You're the reason why I believe angels exist
Always shoot for the stars, but don't be afraid If you miss
Chronic blunts and bong rips, I'm faded as shit
Conversation like a war zone, those are dangerous lips
Short on breath been busy chasing the wind
But still keep an ear open for the snakes when they hiss
Is this punishment? At the bottom I'm a sunken ship
I just keep it real in my music and hope they fuck with it
Falling out with friends again, hollowed out dead within
Switch it up, change of pace, peel the flesh, change of skin
You know
If they hold you back then learn to let go
Not everything is meant to be some doors are better left closed
It's like everywhere I go, another fork in the road
I just hope the right path is chose, but y'all don't hear me though

Chorus
So come on, let it go, just let it be
Why don't you be you, and I'll be me?
Everything gets broke, leave it to the breeze
Why don't you be you, and I'll be me?
And I'll be me

Verse 2: Vessel
Picking scabs for the sake of scars
Strip me down to naked art
The irony in being gentle when you go to break a heart
Your body motion says a lot, but it's like these eyes are deaf
I'm only speaking truth when I say I wanna lay in bed
Inside your head it's hard to read. Anxiety it's hard to breathe
But when I look into your eyes it's like I hit the lottery
Two of a kind but not a common breed
You probably think I'm kicking game but every word is honesty
Free as a bird in a cage, complain and push em away
A world full of people searching for some personal space
The world works in mysterious ways
Like, dark times, sunshine could you spare a few rays? I swear
Times a thief that leaves nothing behind
That's why I document my life in these rhymes
Its all over in the blink of an eye
So I appreciate every single moment that keeps passing me by
I'm more than satisfied

Chorus
So come on, let it go, just let it be
Why don't you be you, and I'll be me?
Everything gets broke, leave it to the breeze
Why don't you be you, and I'll be me?
And I'll be me
So come on, let it go, just let it be
Why don't you be you, and I'll be me?
Everything gets broke, leave it to the breeze
Let the ashes fall, forget about me
Come on, let it go, just let it be
Why don't you be you, and I'll be me?
And I'll be me
