Let It Go

"Let It Go" (ありのままで Ari no Mama de, lit. "As I Am") is a song featured in Kingdom Hearts III. It is sung by Elsa, queen of Arendelle, as an expression of her newfound feeling of freedom after revealing her ice powers that she'd kept hidden for so long.

The song, composed by husband-and-wife song writing team Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez, and performed (in English) by Idina Menzel, originated from Disney's 2013 animated feature film Frozen. It won the Academy Award for Best Original Song in 2014. The version used in Kingdom Hearts III was lifted directly from the movie, and used in an almost shot-for-shot pre-rendered recreation of the films sequence.

Lyrics

English lyrics The snow glows white on the mountain tonight Not a footprint to be seen A kingdom of isolation And it looks like I'm the queen The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside Couldn't keep it in, heaven knows I tried Don't let them in, don't let them see Be the good girl you always have to be Conceal, don't feel, don't let them know Well, now they know Let it go, let it go Can't hold it back anymore Let it go, let it go Turn away and slam the door I don't care What they're going to say Let the storm rage on The cold never bothered me anyway It's funny how some distance Makes everything seem small And the fears that once controlled me Can't get to me at all It's time to see what I can do To test the limits and break through No right, no wrong, no rules for me I'm free Let it go, let it go I am one with the wind and sky Let it go, let it go You'll never see me cry Here I stand and here I'll stay Let the storm rage on My power flurries through the air into the ground My soul is spiraling in frozen fractals all around And one thought crystallizes like an icy blast I'm never going back, the past is in the past Let it go, let it go And I'll rise like the break of dawn Let it go, let it go That perfect girl is gone Here I stand in the light of day Let the storm rage on The cold never bothered me anyway
