Written as a reminder for me more than anything.
Lyrics:
Change is coming
Like it or not
It can surprise you
And tie you in knots
Or you can embrace it
Catch waves before they break
Open your heart
New destinations awake
Prepare for change
Welcome change
Grieve with change
Embrace change
Love will shift
Sometimes go deeper
Often splinter
Or take a big detour
Friendships dip
Or can quickly dive
But through hardest times
Strong bonds survive
Prepare for change
Welcome change
Grieve with change
Embrace change
A loved one’s death
Feels untraversable
Life now drags through
Loss irreversible
Respect the unpredictable
Rhythm of grief’s ride
Be open to the feelings
But don’t marinate inside
Prepare for change
Welcome change
Grieve with change
Embrace change
Try to be present
Let past loosen its grip
Dwell not in the future
Just brace for the trip
Name the feeling of fear
Look what’s beneath it
Break it down further
You’re ready to face it
Prepare for change
Welcome change
Grieve with change
Embrace change
Societal change bends
Toward justice eventually
But for power to cede
Pressure exponentially
Lean in to the change
Causing your frustration
Look under for patterns
Needing liberation
Prepare for change
Welcome change
Grieve with change
Embrace change
