Break down the barriers of your heart!
Give yourself a fresh start
We have unlimited potential to love
From the ugliest beetle to the prettiest dove
All beings are encompassed within our soul
It merely takes looking, and relaxing our hold
On what we think we control
For what we control is nothing but the ideals of old
Let us make those ideals brand new
Rebuild this world that has gone askew
See the perfection that is all around
Release the shackles: become unbound
For the only thing holding you back
Is the story your mind tells you, of everything you lack
How could you lack anything
When your being embodies everything!
Break down the barriers of your heart
Realize you can create a forest fire from a little spark
You have that spark within you
It never is extinguished; it always ignites anew
Fear is the idea that prevents us from seeing love
And all the many gifts sent to us from above
When we see that we are part of a whole
We begin to understand our chosen role
We can live authentically each and every day
If only we let go of fear and let love stay
In this moment, so beautiful and pure
Nothing can take away this moment’s allure
You are not controlled by fear but rather the inventor
Instead of walking towards fear, open another door
The door of love is always unlocked
For our heart pervades all paths if it is unlocked
Break down the barriers of your heart
You and love can never truly part
We are one with love; it is the essence of our being
Begin to love yourself, and you will start believing
Not only in your own limitless power
But the power of others to construct Heaven’s tower
This tower shall be placed on Earth
To give all bliss and endless mirth
For our time here in this reality
Although it is masked in brevity
We actually reside together in eternity
We cannot escape the oneness love provides
But who would want to run from love and hide?
Only those who cannot see
The truth of everlasting beauty
To bring them to the light is our duty!
Break down the barriers of your heart
We are here to give the world a fresh start
And so we begin with ourselves
Forgiveness, acceptance, and love are the gel
The glue that binds all in existence
And lets us partake in the Universal Dance
We are always part of the party
We just have to come heartily
This means to be full of heart
And to come ready to express your art
For our unique expression is our role
That lets us find our place in the whole
Never forget this beautiful truth
Let us forever reside with a heart full of youth!
