Intro
I've been an ace girl
Offering much, grumbling low
And I gave all, all that was asked of me
When order was slow and vision was unrelenting
I never stopped long enough
To swim against the tides of old
And I was single-minded too much
To look toward this new true north
So now
Permission to be
Permission to slow
And do the only things that matter to me
The freedom to flow
To where genuine flows
And do the only things that matter to me
And sure, I've had my fun
Played with my roles
With time for a break hard-won
But then after a while
So much done by rote
No longer by inspiration
I've never stopped long enough
To see whose was this blind ambition
And I was not sanctioned to stop
And realize whose was this old mission
So now
Permission to be
Permission to slow
And do the only things that matter to me
The freedom to flow
To where genuine flows
And do the only things that matter to me
With this space by the dropping of weights
This license to obey
With this time really wait
So now
Permission to be
Permission to slow
And do the only things that matter to me
The freedom to flow
To where genuine flows
And do the only things that matter to me
The simple things that matter to me
The simple things that matter to me?
