Chains Of Burden

These chains are, pulling down
Gotten nowhere
Almost felt like I’ve drown.
And after all these years of hate,
I’m ready to, go free.

While I sang,
Burden, burden, burden.
Has got these chains on me.
Burden, burden, burden.
Now can’t you see,
All the cruelness we’ve done,
Causing tears in our eyes.
Not knowin’,
We’re just the same.

The pain I’ve gone through,
Opened my eyes.
Made me stop to think,
What a life.
I was waiting around,
For a chance that didn’t come,
Then realized,
Its up to me.

While I sang,
Burden, burden, burden.
Has got these chains on me.
Burden, burden, burden.
Now can’t you see,
All the cruelness we’ve done,
Causing tears in our eyes.
Not knowin’,
We’re just the same.

The day that daddy came home,
All bloodied up and broken,
He wiped off his face,
got down on his knees.
And cried lord, lord, lord.
Take these chains, off me.
Please.

As we sang,
Burden, burden, burden.
Has got these chains on me.
Burden, burden, burden.
Now can’t you see,
All the cruelness we’ve done,
Causing tears in our eyes.
Now knowin’,
We’re just the same.

And finally now, I’ve broken free!
