Let It Go
I wish you knew that you aren't unique
You're not alone in the secrets that you keep
Other people have skeletons in their closets too
But you don't hate those people and they don't hate you
It may be hard for you to relive your mistakes
But life is a running river and not a perfectly still lake
The past can be painful, but it's not who you are
If you live in your failures, you can't get very far
Forgive yourself so that you can grow
Acknowledge you have a past, and then let it go
