All of It Yours

Give up your heart. Hold it within your empty hands.
It’s the sum, the sea, of who you are.
Your hopes, your dreams, all the things and “whos” you love.
All your disgraces, your fears, and “sorrys” for the things you’ve done.

Give up your days. They are like grains of sand.
Look at them. They’re the sea, the sum, of who you’ve been.
Every hour, steal it. Every hour, feel it.
Every day, every dollar, it just washes away.

You just have to reach out and take it.
It’s yours. All of it yours.
Run to the Ocean. Feel it’s currents push and pull.
Let it’s power embrace you, take you, sweep the old you away.

The valley low, make it your home.
This I know. You can see the glory in the world.
Step up to the mountain top. Sing for the hope that you have.
Here and now, embody the things that you believe

Don’t have care about what happens to you know.
Just be changed, somehow find the change.
Look to the sky and be free.
Don’t build temples and walls to hold yourself in.
