The Center of My Universe

LET IT BE PLAY [Opening — whispered] From the center From the center From the center of my universe I create I create I create It is for me It moves through me It becomes through me And I let it be play. [Mantra] Let it be play Let it be play All of life Let it be play I am the creator I am the creation I am the magic And the imagination Let it be play Let it be play [Verse I — The Creator] I am the creator of my world The artist with the open hands I choose the colors I move the pieces I dream new worlds into being I don’t wait for permission I don’t wait to be chosen I choose I create I become Life is moving through me. [Chorus] I am the wizard I am the magician I am the one with the vision I am the Empress I am the Emperor I am sovereign in my kingdom Everything for me Everything through me Everything teaching me how to see From the center of my universe I create what wants to be And I let it be play. [Verse II — The Kingdom] This is my kingdom This is my life I bless what enters I bless what leaves I choose what stays I choose what grows I choose where my energy flows There are no wasted chapters No wrong turns in the maze Every road becomes wisdom Every ending makes space It’s all for me It’s all through me It’s all becoming something new And I get to choose What I create with it. [Build — rhythmic] I am the wand I am the spell I am the story I came here to tell I am the fire I am the flame I am the one who gives it a name I am the question I am the key I am the possibility I am the dreamer I am the dream The universe creating Itself through me. [Call + Response] Who is the creator? I am. Who holds the wand? I do. Who chooses the story? I do. Who opens the door? I do. Who makes the magic? I do. And what if I don’t know how? I play. What if everything changes? I play. What if something falls apart? I create again. [Bridge — expansive] I don’t need to force the river I remember I am water I don’t need to chase the fire I remember I am flame I don’t need to find the magic I remember— I AM. I am the wizard I am the magician I am the Empress I am the Emperor I am the universe Looking through these eyes Creating through these hands Loving through this heart Playing through this life It’s all for me It’s all through me It’s all moving with me Life isn’t happening to me Life is creating with me. [Final Mantra — ecstatic / communal] I am the creator I am the creation I am the magic I am the imagination I am the wizard I am the magician I am sovereign I am free Everything for me Everything through me From the center I create From the center I create From the center I create And I let it be play Let it be play Let it be play Let it be play [Outro — whispered] It’s my kingdom. It’s my canvas. It’s my dance. I hold the wand. Life moves through me. And I get to play.
