Let Him Fly - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

Ain't no talkin' to this man

Ain't no pretty other side

Ain't no way to understand

Stupid words of pride

It would take an acrobat

And I already tried all that

I'm gonna let him fly, mmm

Things can move at such a pace

The second hand just waved goodbye

You know the light has left his face

You can't recall just where or why

So there was really nothin' to it

I just went and cut right through it

I said, I'm gonna let him fly, ooh yeah, yeah

There's no mercy in a live wire, no rest at all in freedom

The choices we are given it's... it's no choice at all, oh oh

The proof is in the fire, you touch before it moves away, yeah

But you must always know how long to stay and when to go

And there ain't no talkin' to this man

He's been tryin' to tell me so

It took a while to understand

The beauty of just letting go

'Cause it would take an acrobat

And I already tried all that

I'm gonna let him fly

I'm gonna let him fly, fly

Oh oh-oh oh oh

I'm gonna let him fly, oh-oh

I'm... I'm gonna let him fly
