Description
"It's Up to You" is ultimately a song about optimism and the need to live a fully conscious life. Some listeners have referred to it as "the Dalai Lama song," and I accept that as a great compliment.
Lyrics
It's Up to You Words and music by Randy Morse Copyright 2009 Ah, your breath goes in and your breath goes out, You're not quite sure what this life's about. Your breath goes in and your breath goes out, Are you up or down? Are you north or south? One thing is clear, 'least it seems to me, You're in charge of who you're going to be, You decide to be glad or blue, Happy or sad, it's all up to you. The sun pours down on a pearl-lined beach, It warms your skin but your bones it will bleach. The sun pours down but joy's outta reach, Children laugh, they have something to teach. One thing is clear, 'least it seems to me, You're in charge of who you're going to be, You decide to be glad or blue, Joyous or sad, friend, it's up to you. INSTRUMENTAL INTERLUDE Your breath goes in and your breath goes out, You're not quite sure what this life's about. Your breath goes in and your breath goes out, Are you up or down? Are you north or south? CHORUS The sun goes down on our Lady of Light, The ghosts come out, bathed in pale moonlight. The sun goes down, you try with all your might, To live a good life to do what is right. CHORUS INSTRUMENTAL FADEOUT
