Let It Go
Let it Go
The last song on Armageddon Boogie.
This is a strange one, it’s my least favourite track. Yet has been really popular with everyone who hears it! So I guess I’m starting to see it as deserving of being on here.
This one is about how life ain’t fair … just relax and take it in your stride.
I think during and after 2020, I got to take stock of things and deal with some business and health things I had been putting off. Although I haven’t worked it all out yet, I didn’t realise how much I needed to just relax in certain areas of my life and take care of health and business.
Life isn’t fair. We all get hit with illness, personal tragedies and hard times. But we need to be a little more positive about the good things. And just let the harder times “roll off” when we can… we will ALWAYS have lows, so enjoy the highs!
Whatever negative stuff is causing you grief or stress, it’s just a little speck in this whole big picture … you’ve got to learn to deal with it and let it go.
Whatever it is, you will have to let it go, eventually.
I wrote a similar song back in 1993 on an Annihilator album, the song was Sounds Good to Me. For some people it helped them calm down and get through tough times.
It’s a feelgood song and I hope you like it.
LET IT GO
(Waters)
there’s nothin you can do about it, nothing at all
you know that you can’t control it,
we’re at the beck and call
let it go, let it roll off your back
let it go, cause you’ve got the knack
let it go, we’re just along for the ride
we only got one life give it everything you got
(so live it)
another hit, just try to relax and take it all in stride
step back and go with the flow, just go with the tide
scream it out in anger and set it free
just do the best you can and let it be
scream it out in anger, you’ve gotta listen to me
try to do the best you can, let it be
life ain’t fair but it’s ok, we’re gonna survive
don’t forget to do what you can, it’s good to be alive
