Go Easy On Yourself

Go easy on yourself
When you’re making your way
For it ain’t easy out there
For so many today.

People struggling to make ends meet
People losing themselves on drugs
People sleeping on the street
People crying out for love.

Things don’t always go your way
Things can quickly fall apart
So be kind to yourself
Keep some love in your heart.

Go easy out there
When you’re making your way
Life ain’t always fair
But we can make it a little more that way.

In our day to day
How we live for ourselves
Those closest to us
And the people that we help.

We light up the world
One being at a time
It starts within ourselves
So don’t be afraid to shine.

A lot of negativity
Our way will come
Can’t always run from it
But move on when it’s done.

Go easy on yourself
When you’re making your way
For it’s rarely easy out there
For so many day to day.

The love we wish receive
Is the love we gotta give
Take some time out to breathe
Allow yourself room to live.

Go easy on yourself
Even when you’re out there acting tough
For just to get through the day
For many is hard enough.

Love yourself a little deeper
And that love will spread out
On yourself go a little easier
We’re all just figuring this stuff out.

We make mistakes right, left, and centre
We often get things wrong
But go easy on the self lecture
Learn and move on.

Go easy on yourself
When you’re making your way
For it ain’t easy out there
For so many today.
