Let the Self vibes take over -- [LYRICS] -- Soul / Self-Care Permission INTRO You are allowed to stop… You don't have to earn the rest… VERSE 1 I grew up watching people run themselves to ground And call it virtue, call it proud The grinding and the burning of the candle At both ends until there's nothing left to handle I inherited the ethic of the earning The rest that only came after the turning In of all the work, the proof of doing Before the pause, the constant self-reviewing PRE-CHORUS But the body doesn't care about the quota The body needs the rest like it needs water Unconditionally, not after the completion Not after the finishing, just for the breathing The breathing is the purpose not the product The rest is not the failure to conduct The full performance of the expected Rest is not the thing to be corrected CHORUS Permission to rest, permission to rest You don't have to earn the pause by giving your best Permission to rest, permission to rest The body is not a machine you assess For productivity before you recharge You are allowed to rest regardless Permission to rest, permission to rest Granted, unconditionally, right now VERSE 2 The culture sells the hustle and the grind Like rest is for the weak or the behind Schedule, not for those who have ambition As if exhaustion is a life's mission I'm rejecting the mythology of tired The badge of honour of the completely wired The proud collapse of the overworked and spent The rest permission is the new intent PRE-CHORUS But the body doesn't care about the quota The body needs the rest like it needs water Unconditionally, not after the completion Not after the finishing, just for the breathing CHORUS Permission to rest, permission to rest You don't have to earn the pause by giving your best Permission to rest, permission to rest The body is not a machine you assess For productivity before you recharge You are allowed to rest regardless Permission to rest, permission to rest Granted, unconditionally, right now BRIDGE (soft and granting) I give you permission, I give it freely I give it to myself and I mean it deeply You don't have to justify the stillness The rest is not the enemy of fullness Rest is the foundation of the doing Rest is the essential of the pursuing Stop, breathe, lie down, be horizontal The permission is unconditional OUTRO Permission to rest… permission to rest… Granted… granted… You've earned it just by being… just by being… --- Produced by: Cloud9 Audio Lyrics Written by: Cloud9 Audio Lyrics #LyricVideo #Soul #NewMusic2026 #EnglishLyrics #TrendingSongs #Cloud9AudioLyrics #Lyrics
