Let Them Be

[Verse 1]
You say love has rules, lines you can’t cross
But who made you the keeper of what’s gained or lost?
They kiss in public, and you look away
But they’re not the ones pretending every day

You speak in verses, quote them like knives
But hide your hate in holy disguise
You point at strangers, call them “wrong”
But love’s never hurt anyone that strong

[Chorus]
Let them be, let them breathe
Why does their joy make you seethe?
Is your world so small, so afraid
That you cage what you can’t explain?
If two hearts beat, let them collide
You don’t own who walks by whose side
It’s still love, can’t you see?
And love’s never asked for your decree

[Verse 2]
He wears a dress, and she wears pride
You smirk behind your fragile stride
But what’s a dress to a soul set free?
What’s a label when you’re finally “me”?

You talk about values, about “God’s plan”
But throw the first stone with a trembling hand
You mock what you don’t understand
But fear don’t make you more of a man

[Chorus]
Let them be, let them rise
Why fear the fire in someone’s eyes?
Love doesn’t knock on doors like yours
It breaks the locks, it lifts the floors
If two hearts spark, don’t look away
That kind of light don’t come every day
It’s still love, endlessly
And it don’t need your guarantee

[Bridge]
If you can’t celebrate it, at least don’t condemn
What they feel’s more real than your empty amen
You judge with venom and wear it proud
But love speaks louder than the crowd

[Final Chorus]
Let them be, let them shine
They don’t need your boxed design
You’re free to live the way you choose
So why can’t they love without your abuse?
The world is wide, the heart is wild
Let it bloom in every child
It’s still love, beautifully
And it’s not yours to oversee

[Outro]
Let them laugh, let them cry
Let them dance beneath the sky
It’s still love…
And that’s enough
