Let Go
PFR Lyrics

If there is only one god
Questioning the point of serving multiple gods if there is only one true god

Why do we serve so many
Wondering why so many are worshiped when there should only be one

If there is only one law
Noting the existence of only one law to follow

Why do we live like there aren't any
Pondering why people seem to ignore the laws they should be following

I'm not trying to get you down
Acknowledging that the message might sound negative

I just want you to know
Intent on sharing something important

That if you going to live for God
Providing context for the message

You've got to let go
Encouraging something that is necessary for growth

Got to let go of the little things
Suggesting to let go of minor issues before they become major problems

Before they get you down
Advising to deal with them before they have adverse effects

Got to let go or they'll drag you to the bottom
Metaphorically explaining how negativity can bring you down

And hold you down
Continuing the metaphor of being dragged down

It's a war we all fight
Referencing the struggle that everyone experiences

And compromise is the battleground
Describing the area where the struggle takes place

But if you're never gonna grow
Putting emphasis on the importance of growth

You've got to let go
Continuing to emphasize the necessity of letting go

If there's only one truth
Posing a philosophical question about the nature of truth

One original way
Acknowledging that there is only one genuine path

Why do we search like blind men
Commenting on the fruitless search for other paths

Can't see the sunshine in the light of day
Suggesting that the search is preventing us from seeing what is already there

We've got to turn around
Realizing the need for a change in direction

And run the other way
Going in the opposite direction from where they have been headed

Cause if we're gonna live for God
Justifying the change by appealing to a higher power

We've got to turn away
Restating the importance of turning away from the wrong path

Turn away from the little things
Paralleling the previous section to emphasize the importance of letting go

Before they get us down
Repeating the message that handling negativity early is key

Turn away or they'll drag us to the bottom
Reiterating that dwelling on the negative can lead to further problems

And hold us down
Continuing the metaphor of being dragged down by negativity

But if we're ever gonna change
Emphasizing the need for change once again
