Take it Easy (Song Lyric)

I have baggage here, a heart full of tears – Aahh, so I take it easy.
I want to unfurl my wings, fly against the wind, breathe some glory.
Deep scars in my soul, heart’s a thousand years old… but I take it easy.
I can take myself higher, with words that inspire and heal me.

This is my song of freedom
I sing with no tinge of regret
For me it’s a spine tingling anthem
For children of earth to connect.

I’ve been tossed in the flames, tortured and chained but now it’s easy.
Been frozen to chill yet the power of the will has freed me.
The lion roars from it’s cage, stabbed by the rage of captivity.
There’s wrath in my fists, but my vengeance insists I take it easy.

Take it easy, yes easy, so easy;
Crept as close to the edge as I dared.
No chains, no flames no cold steel bars so
I jumped and the net just appeared.

[I’ve stopped asking why it appears / I just sing… and step into the clear.]

As an old man I sing yet of freedom
I sing while I still have the breath
This is my mind altering anthem
I scream as I swim from the wreck.

Of all my songs, this is the clearest,
be it overture of promise or threat.
I chant it as a blood curdling chorus
For the youth scorched earth to respect

Take it easy, yes easy, so easy
don’t you worry if lightning’s due again
If life’s thunder makes you feel uneasy
relax; sing your heart out in the rain

This is my song of redemption,
A frame for my silhouette
A resounding church-belled anthem,
I get old, no need to break sweat
I take it easy, ignore my regrets
I take it easy coz the world will forget
I take it easy and – I ain’t done yet.
