Let Me

Let me realize where and what I am.
Let me feel the Love of a friend.

Let me Love another as a friend.
Let me awake each morning and do it again.

Let me live like I’m not alone.
Let me live like there’s nothing to own.

Let me remember all the beauty that I’ve been shown.
Let me honor the ancestors from whom I am sown.

Let me live loud on the mountain.
Let me grow strong the valley.

Let me bump-fists on the sunniest streets.
Let me shake-hands in the darkest alleys.

Let me. Let me. Let me.
Let me. Let me. Let me.

Let me feel at home in every place that I roam.

Let me be filled with the hope and joy
of babies and puppies.

Let me remember that my best friend
started his life as a kitten.

Let the costume I wear
never hide the Truth.

Let the words I speak
meet the ears that they seek.

And when I’m tired,
on the floor, let me sleep.

Let me. Let me. Let me.
Let me. Let me. Let me.

Let me greet my last breath
with all the wonder of the first.

And when it’s time to go
let me offer this body that others may grow.

Oh…

Let me. Let me. Let me.
Let me. Let me. Let me.

Let me go. Let me grow.
Let me see. Let me be.
Let me play. Let me stay.
Let me fear. Let me hear.
Let me hug. Let me Love.
Let me dare. Let me share.

Let me. Let me. Let me.
Let me. Let me. Let me.
