it's baggage on our mind when we'd prefer to be free
we at once realize we've become caretakers
weighed down with the burden of responsiblity
look and resist the craving to own
enjoy things in the moment
it's surprising how little we need
seek the freedom to be open
to what comes our way
unburdened and unencumbered
stuff is the anchor to our past
we deserve to allow ourselves
the freedom to be free
