Step Back,
Slow Down

\u201cWhat I hold on to holds on to me.\xa0 With the heart and wisdom I have now, I wouldn\u2019t do again what my old self would allow.\u201d

\u201cWhat I hold onto to holds on to me. Resentments I carry won\u2019t let me be free. My new religion is live and let be.

What I hold on to holds on to me.\u201d \u201cLetting go of all the blame and heartache, now I see I\u2019m getting closer to a new, more peaceful me.

Holding on to what I want to keep, I feel lighter, I sleep better, it\u2019s love that\u2019s holdin\u2019 me.\u201d

\u201cNow I Can stand back and see, the past is the past but the future\u2018s up to me.

My new religion is live and let be.\xa0 What I hold on to holds on to me.\u201d
