Sugar Man - Jim Sharp Edit

they say x no letting go

[Verse 1]
I watch the thoughts spin threads in air,
Little narratives pretending they care.
They rise like sparks, they fall like dust—
I see them float but they don't earn trust.
The mind makes movies out of what I feel,
Shrinks the moment down, calls it real.
But when I breathe into the body’s flow,
The stories fade, they lose their glow.
I'm wider than the tale that tries to claim me,
A steady space the mind can't frame me.
I let the noise dissolve, unwind—
I’m not the echo, I’m what's behind.

[Pre-Chorus]
Any story that I tell myself's a lie,
Not shame—just the truth that thoughts oversimplify.
Reality is spacious, the mind is small;
I leave the narration, I feel it all.

[Chorus]
I don’t believe every thought I think;
I watch them rise, I watch them sink.
I don’t fold inside the mind’s vibration—
I rest in something deeper: liberation.
Awareness opens wide and clear,
I'm not the story—I’m what’s here.
I meet each thought softly, let it pass;
I’m larger than the mind’s looking glass.

[Verse 2]
Sagan said to bake a pie from scratch,
You’d have to build the universe to match.
So every thought’s a fragment, never whole—
A sliver of a much more endless soul.
I notice each idea when it appears,
But I don’t crawl inside its gears.
The body anchors, breath realigns,
The noise gets quiet, the truth refines.
No more reacting from the narrow frame—
I show up present, not the same.
Thoughts keep forming, that’s their role,
But I choose the space, I own the whole.

[Bridge]
Thoughts will come, stories will form—
The mind is just performing its norm.
But I don’t take them as the final view;
They’re passing clouds in a sky that’s true.

[Final Chorus]
I don’t believe every thought I think;
I watch them rise, I watch them sink.
I rest beyond the inner narration—
A steady, grounded liberation.
Reality is kinder than the tale it replaces;
I breathe into presence—open spaces.

[Outro]
Let them go… let them pass…
I’m the space beyond the glass.
