lets it be
Leaves it alone
To let something be is to leave it alone—to stop interfering, worrying, or trying to change it.
Just let it be advises acceptance of a situation you can't control.
The phrase suggests stepping back rather than forcing outcomes: I wanted to argue, but I decided to let it be.
