Verse 1 Verse 1 Verse 1 Been thumbing through paperbacks at 2 a.m. Highlighter bleeding through every page again "Find your peace," "Set yourself free," Every guru's got a fix for me I was feeling was down and weary Til I read the "Let Them Theory" A New York Times bestseller, thought this one might finally set me right... Yeah, it did — just not the way the author writes Pre-Chorus They say the first step is don't fight it, go on and "let them" be... You take a deep breath in... And the second step is my favorite, it's the part called "let me" Verse 2 Yeah, he slipped out late, said he needed space Found his truck parked at her place My best friend's porch light glowing like a sin Guess they both let each other in Book says don't react, just "let them" be................ They showed you who they are, now set 'em free................. But if they get to do whatever they please… That second step applies to me Pre Chorus Best way to get over a man........ is to get under another Let me go hit up his best friend..... or maybe is baby brother Chorus I'm gonna let them talk, let them run, let them do me wrong Let them think I'll just roll along.............. I'm gonna stand tall, hold my head high, and smile unafraid I'm gonna let them burn every bridge they made You can let them all day long and that's just fine by me But that "let me" second part is gonna set me free If I am gonna let them, I am sure as hell gonna let me Verse 3 I built the blueprint, line by line He stamped his name across my design Took my voice, changed the tone Sold my truth like it was his own A suit and tie can’t hide a lie Of a hollow man with a stolen sky Verse 4 I ain't the kind that just lets it slide Imma woman and I've got pride Yeah I can let go, yeah I can leave But don't confuse that with naïve I might let 'em walk like they got free… But that second step belongs to me Bridge They can take, they can break, they can walk on me They can write their truth like a prophecy You can wear the crown, play the part But you can’t rewrite where it starts Final Chorus I'm gonna let them talk, let them run, let them do me wrong Let them think I'll just roll along I'm gonna stand tall, hold my head high, and smile unafraid I'm gonna let them burn every bridge we made You can let them all day long and that's just fine by me But that "let me" second part is gonna set me free If I am gonna let them, I am sure as hell gonna let me.............
