It is now time to let go of control
Stop trying to swim and let yourself float
For a moment, see where the current leads.
For ages, we've been swimming against it
Our fortitude has carried us to Home,
Because Home to us was always uphill.
It's admirable that we've fought so much
For the beloved too precious to lose.
But the reality is that maybe,
Like Sethe, we were the ones causing the pain.
The Home we were reaching for is now gone,
No one can blame us for trying to save.
It's tough to face an uncomfortable truth,
That the truth we fought for was a flat lie
A sales pitch that hooked us in and gave hope.
This sick feeling is part of the process.
Home gave us a false hope when there was none.
Gods we believed in were idols like Baal,
We were wrong, but wrong for the right reasons,
And no one can take away the journey.
There's a part of us that still clings to love
A love so strong we denied fallacies.
Home, right now it is time to say goodbye,
Time now bellows us to be free, let go.
