"Legacy" lyrics

We've been making excuses for this falling out
Trying to make sense of it all
Can hardly remember what it was about
We've chosen our hills to die on
We're building up walls surrounding our hearts
Like fortified castles with weapons and guards
Wanna stay close but we're drifting apart
Searching for peace but don't know where to start

We don't have to see it the same
To give each other some grace...

Let it be, let it be, let love be our legacy
I'll carry your burdens and you carry mine
Willing to see it through each others eyes
No we don't need to be, our own worst enemies
If we come together and let mercy lead, love can be our legacy

This white knuckle ride got us holding on tight
To offenses and pride and we all pay the price
While I criticize all the dust in your eyes
I can barely see through all the splinters in mine

We don't have to see it the same
To give each other some grace...

Let it be, let it be, let love be our legacy
I'll carry your burdens and you carry mine
Willing to see it through each others eyes
No we don't need to be, our own worst enemies
If we come together and let mercy lead, love can be our legacy

Let it be, let it be, let love be our legacy
Let it be, let it be, let love be our legacy

We don't need to be, our own worst enemies
And we'll let mercy lead, and leave our legacy

No we don't need to be, our own worst enemies
If we come together and let mercy lead, love can be our legacy

Let it be, let it be, let love be our legacy
Let it be, let it be, let love be our legacy
