Turn It Loose

People all around me

Everywhere I go

I thought I had a grip on things

Now I just don't know

People turn their backs on me

My feet are movin' slow

I done time, I been shined

Ain't gonna fight no more

I'm gonna make it

I'm gonna try

Ain't no use to sit and cry

Turn it loose; don't hold back

Got to set your spirit free

Turn it loose; listen to me, children

It's the best kind of remedy

Turn it loose; you got the power

That's the way it's got to be

Turn it loose; get on board

It's just for people like you and me

Some friends, they hide it

Keep it deep inside

For the boy it's a struggle

Don't you know it's a lie

You got to be the real thing

It flows with the tide

You are the person

With the answer inside

I'm gonna make it

I'm gonna try

Ain't no use to hang your head and cry

Turn it loose; don't hold back

Got to set your spirit free

Turn it loose; listen to me, children

It's the best kind of remedy

Turn it loose; you got the power

That's the way it's got to be

Turn it loose; get on board

It's just for people like you and me
