about

An anthem to self-realization and overcoming the challenges life throws at you, "How to Be" opens with an expressive verse and builds to a triumphant chorus, with a cutting synth solo to drive it towards the finish.

lyrics

Drop your notion preconceived
Express yourself, and be at ease
Open your mind and receive
Open wide

Don’t fear emotion unknown
Once a crying child, you learn to flow
Trust you’ll find your way to go
Trust you’ll find

And it really doesn’t matter what you think it’s all about
And we really don’t know where we’re gonna go so we gotta just be in the moment
With its twists and turns it’s easy to want out
But we take it bit by bit, through the good, through the shit always knowin' there’s an end to it all so we live

Without fear, we fight the anxiety for what could come. So we live
Connected to this world, to each other to our friends that really matter. So we live
There’s a rhyme, there’s a reason that we gonna just keep on bein'
And we ain’t never ever comin down

Retract from this physical world
Sittin back, the beauty of it all unfurls
Think to slow down, the end is for sure
Take your time
