People all around me   Everywhere I go   I thought I had a grip on things   Now I just don't know   People turn their backs on me   My feet are movin' slow   I done time, I been shined   Ain't gonna fight no more   I'm gonna make it   I'm gonna try   Ain't no use to sit and cry   Turn it loose; don't hold back   Got to set your spirit free   Turn it loose; listen to me, children   It's the best kind of remedy   Turn it loose; you got the power   That's the way it's got to be   Turn it loose; get on board   It's just for people like you and me      Some friends, they hide it   Keep it deep inside   For the boy it's a struggle   Don't you know it's a lie   You got to be the real thing   It flows with the tide   You are the person   With the answer inside   I'm gonna make it   I'm gonna try   Ain't no use to hang your head and cry      Turn it loose; don't hold back   Got to set your spirit free   Turn it loose; listen to me, children   It's the best kind of remedy   Turn it loose; you got the power   That's the way it's got to be   Turn it loose; get on board   It's just for people like you and me
