Be Humble – True humility isn’t thinking less of yourself; it’s seeing yourself accurately. By embracing humility, you open yourself to growth, wisdom, and deeper connections—freeing yourself from ego and aligning with something greater than yourself.
Be Humble, Be Free
(Verse 1)
I used to hold so tight, to what I thought was right,
Built up walls so high, like I was afraid to die.
But the truth can’t destroy, it can only improve,
If I open my heart, I’ll feel aligned in its groove.
(Pre-Chorus)
No fear, no fight, and enough of me,
I don't have to be right, I just have to be free.
I have no monopoly over what's true or real,
I listen, I learn, I grow, I heal.
(Chorus)
Be humble, be free, let the truth commence,
No walls, no chains, no egoic defense.
I’ll listen, I’ll grow, I won’t build a wall,
I’m not a “know it all,” I’m a learn it all!
(Verse 2)
It might feel uneasy to admit that I'm wrong,
But it’s the courage to change that makes me strong.
Don't think less of yourself, think of yourself less,
Let HaShem lead, let the ego rest.
(Chorus)
Be humble, be free, let the truth commence,
No walls, no chains, no egoic defense.
I’ll listen, I’ll grow, I won’t build a wall,
I’m not a “know it all,” I’m a learn it all!
(Bridge)
What if I’m wrong? What if I see,
That the truth is so much bigger than me?
To admit such a thing might feel like death,
But that’s my yatzer talking! It’s a life-giving breath!
(Final Chorus)
Be humble, be free, let the truth commence,
No walls, no chains, no egoic defense.
I’ll listen, I’ll grow, I won’t build a wall,
I’m not a “know it all,” I’m a learn it all!
(Outro)
I choose growth, I choose light,
I choose learning over being right.
No more walls, no more fear,
Humility shines, my mind is clear.
