Lyrics of Let It Happen by Tame Impala
chorus
It′s always around me, all this noise
But not nearly as loud as the voice saying
"Let it happen, let it happen" (it's gonna feel so good)
"Just let it happen, let it happen"
verse
All this running around
Tryin′ to cover my shadow
A notion growing inside
Now all the others seem shallow
All this running around
Bearing down on my shoulders
I can hear an alarm
Must be a morning
bridge
I heard about a whirlwind that's coming 'round
It′s gonna carry off all that isn′t bound
And when it happens, when it happens (I won't be holding on)
So let it happen, let it happen
verse
All this running around
I can′t fight it much longer
Something's tryin′ to get out
And it's never been closer
If my take-off fails
Make up some other story
If I never come back
Tell my mother I′m sorry
chorus
I cannot vanish, you will not scare me
Try to get through it, try to push through it
You were not thinking that I will not do it
They be lovin' someone and I'm another story
Take the next ticket, get the next train
Why would I do it? Anyone′d think that
I cannot vanish, you will not scare me
Try to get through it, try to push through it
You were not thinking that I will not do it
They be lovin′ someone and I'm another story
Take the next ticket, get the next train
Why would I do it? Anyone′d think that
Try to get through it, try to push through it
You were not thinking that I will not do it
They be lovin' someone and I′m another story
Take the next ticket, get the next train
Why would I do it? Anyone'd think that
outro
Baby, now I′m ready, moving on
Oh, but maybe I was ready all along
Oh, I'm ready for the moment and the sound
Oh, but maybe I was ready all along
Baby, now I'm ready, moving on
Oh, but maybe I was ready all along
Oh, I′m ready for the moment and the sound
Oh, but maybe I was ready all along

Meaning
The song 'Let It Happen' by Tame Impala talks about surrendering to change and letting go of control. The lyrics depict a struggle with inner turmoil and the realization that sometimes it's better to accept what's coming rather than resist it. Metaphors like 'running around' and 'whirlwind' symbolize the chaos and unpredictability of life, while the idea of being 'ready all along' suggests a readiness to face challenges and embrace new beginnings.
