Shed the skin

Have you ever held a snake?

So strong, so gentle

Wrapped like a living rope

Moving in every direction through The grass

They are amazing creatures

Extraordinary and near

They teach us how to change How to leave the past here

Shed the skin, shed the skin (hold on, let it go)

Shed the skin, shed the skin (what breaks can make you whole)

Let the old fall away

Let the new one in

Shed the skin, shed the skin And begin again

Snakes must shed or die

That lesson cuts deep

What once kept them safe

Can choke them in sleep

So pain can be a door

When the life you knew is tight You lose what holds you back And step into new light

As painful as it is

To loosen and release

That's how we survive

That's how we find peace

Shed the skin, shed the skin (hold on, let it go)

Shed the skin, shed the skin (what breaks can make you whole)

Let the old fall away

Let the new one in

Shed the skin, shed the skin And begin again

Watch where you step

Never reach blindly

Stay on the trail

Respect what you can't see

Don't try to move or touch

What doesn't ask for you

Some truths stay wild

And they know what to do

Shed the skin, shed the skin (hold on, let it go)

Shed the skin, shed the skin (what breaks can make you whole)

Let the old fall away

Let the new one in

Shed the skin, shed the skin And begin again
