Letting it go

I'm letting it go, letting it go
I'm letting it go, letting it go
I exhale
And as I do so
I let go
Breathing out all the oppressive negativity that I have found comfort in
For this was the reason I gave my self for not moving forward, growing and advancing  
Relieving myself of the dead weight that I've been carrying
Regardless of the shape or form it comes in
They say that we are the only things that stand in the way of our progression
I can't argue with that notion
Because sometimes doubt in myself has lead me to what I thought was a place of ease
Never really fully happy but I created this resolve to pretend to be
Some fake sense of security
A picture perfect image of pure crazy
Because it never lasted long and I always end up singing that same song
Well, I don't wanna anymore 
I'm letting it go, letting it go
I'm letting it go, letting it go
I close my eyes
And as I do so
I let go
So that in opening them I see past where you end or begin
See past the he say, she say bullshit that has a tendency to pull us in
The transference of energy that we all from time to time get trapped in
Letting go of you so that I can regain my sanity
Regain clarity so that I can once again understand what is true
Reclaim this loss of energy that you removed from me to refuel you
Acknowledging that I have been used
Making a forward move
And learning
So that it doesn't happen again
Replacing the wall that was torn down by your presence
Taking time to find a stronger me, because I won't be that woman, I refuse to be defined by anything you put upon me 
I'm letting it go, letting it go
I'm letting it go, letting it go
I clench and then release my fists
And as I do so
I let go
Letting go of the anger that was balled up inside of them
The frustration at the way things were going
Realising the difference between what I am and am not controlling
Realising that anything that has the potential to stunt this metamorphosis needs dissolving
Even if it means that I have to walk around it because walking through it would mean contaminating my being with it
Redirecting my energy, no longer will it stress or oppress me
because these things prevent me from being the best me
I'm letting it go, letting it go
I'm letting it go, letting it go
