The song provides a simple, memorable framework that makes it fun to notice judgmental thoughts without being controlled by them, giving children a friendly melody they can recall whenever they find themselves being harsh with themselves or others, ultimately building emotional skills through the joy of music.
Verse 1:
Set the world free from what you think
Let go of judging, just for a blink
Notice the labels your mind likes to make
But don’t hold on tight, give yourself a break
Pre-Chorus:
Freedom and forgiveness, hand in hand
Help us build a kinder, gentler land
Chorus:
Let it go, let love grow
No need to judge, just let it flow
Forgive yourself, forgive them too
Watch how love comes shining through
Verse 2:
Try for a day to judge not at all
It might be hard, you might stumble and fall
But keep on trying, it’s all okay
You’re learning to love in a whole new way
(Pre-Chorus)
(Chorus)
Bridge:
Forgiveness is strength, not weakness, you’ll see
It sets your heart and others free
When you let go of blame and shame
You’ll find that love’s the perfect aim
(Chorus)
Outro:
So explore this world with open eyes
Free from judgment, free from lies
Let it go, let love grow
That’s how peace begins to show
