Special thanks to Rev. Gretchen Haley for one of her beautiful "call to worships" and to Julia Fehrenbacher for her poem The Cure For It All, both of whom helped inspire the lyrics for this song.
lyrics
I’m just gonna breathe
Until there’s nothing in this life I’d change
I’m just gonna breathe
Until I touch the sorrow ‘neath the rage
I’m just gonna breathe
Until there’s nothing lurking ‘round my smile
I’m just gonna breathe
Until I’m glad to breathe just for a while
Give up the fight
For some other life
There’s hope in the way that you are livin’
Give up the fight
For some other life
There’s change in no longer resistin’
I’m just gonna breathe
Until there’s nothing I’d change in this life
I’m just gonna breathe
Until I touch the love beneath the strife
I’m just gonna breathe
Until it feels so natural just to smile
I’m just gonna breathe
Until I am glad to breathe here for a while
Give up the fight
For some other life
There’s hope in the way that you are livin’
Give up the fight
For some other life
There’s change in no longer resistin’
