And if the whole world’s singing your songs / And all of your paintings have been hung / Just remember what was yours is everyone’s from now on / And that’s not wrong or right / But you can struggle with it all you like / You’ll only get uptight.

Here’s a favorite with some relevance:
Long you live and high you fly
And smiles you’ll give and tears you’ll cry
And all you touch and all you see
Is all your life will ever be.
—Breathe, Pink Floyd DSotM
