What if I gave up the act?

If it all came down to me, just me.

Stop blaming.

Stop hurting.

Stop judging.

Just be.

And who would I be?

How far could I see?

And what would open up for me?

Put down the sticks,

You’ll pick up new tricks.

The challenge is to be, just be.

Be proud of the woman

Who sits before me.

Remember the 10 year-old,

Awkward, but free.

She needs you to be, just be.

Tell tales of my dad,

It’s okay to be sad,

He just wants to be free, so free.

Tell the truth when you speak

Doesn’t mean that you’re weak.

Your purpose is to be, just be.

Friends and family, they care.

But remember to share.

Open up again for me, just me.

And love, it’ll come.

Doesn’t just happen for some.

He’ll find me when I’m me, just me.

It’ll fit like a glove,

Tony said I’m easy to love.

I’ll believe it when I’m me, just me.

Work will come

When you reframe it as play-

And “the movement” might not happen today.

They’ll come running for me, just me.

So give it a try,And Philip, the guys?

And Philip, the guys?

The only way to know is to be, just be.

My 90 year old self

Tales of travel and wealth.

Because she remembered to be, just be.

The journey starts now,

Surrender, allow.

The only way in is with me, just me.

If I forget and I fall,

I know who to call.

Asking for help starts with me, just me.

And after all of this time,

And all of the rhymes,

The answer is

To be, just be, be me, for me.
