An exquisitely crisp, delicate soulful number by the London singer-songwriter inspired by a book about Swedish business who becomes a Buddhist monk in Thailand for 17 years, and is about letting go of control, ditching facades and leaving it all behind. The book is ‘I May Be Wrong’ by Bjørn Natthiko Lindeblad. The song comes from her next EP, FIELDNOTES PT III. To explore and enjoy more by Ego Ella May, see also the other embedded links below as well as her Bandcamp page.
I’ve been thinking I lost my touch
Then read about a forest monk
Trained for 17 years
Rid many of his fears
Seems the key is giving up
In the sense of losing control
Forget what you think that you know
Don't believe your every thought
Be prepared to start
Questioning your own role
If you’re ready to,
We can leave it all behind
If you’re ready to,
We can leave it all behind
I’ve been feeling I'm on the brink
Believing everything I think
If I'm not creating
Does it mean I'm wasting
My God given gift?
I think,
And maybe that’s the problem
Got to be a better option
Cleo said “God’s love is free”
And it’s not dependent on me
Or what I will become
Maybe the whole point is becoming undone
Undone
If you’re ready to,
We can leave it all behind
If you’re ready to,
We can leave it all behind
If you’re ready to,
We can leave it all behind
If you’re ready to,
We can leave it all behind
