Lyrics to Break Free:

If it doesn’t feel good just let it go
Move your body release the hold
Ride the rhythm of your soul
Clear your head of all those thoughts
Loosen up those mental knots
Shake it out  let it go
Let the feeling flow

Break free of everything, everything you know
Break free of everything,  dance your way back home

Where you want to add subtract
Dance your way back to zero
You’re outstanding you’re out of sight
Baby your beautiful
Baby you’re bright at zero
The way you came in all your light
There is nothing for you to hide
Come on honey let it shine
You are divine

Break free of  everything, everything you know
Break free of everything, dance your way back home

Come on honey feel the force
Dance your way back to the source
Free your spirit let it move
Come on baby find your groove
Dancing one with the beat
Everything is pure instinct
Feeling that primal heat
The fire underneath

Break free of  everything, everything you know
Break free of everything, dance your way back home

Give it up let it go
Dance your way back

Break free of  everything, everything you know
Break free of everything, dance your way back home

– Stephanie Parodi
