So Long

So long Tommorrow Shine So brightly Live so freely Cry together Laugh so deeply Smile Forever Be What you can Be Believe in You Shall bring us Pride Forever And I cannot Bend To sunset End All Things Before They begin Show Some mercy Hold On to me I salute You briefly We are One No leaving We will Talk So subtly We shall Hold So tightly Find Me wanting Touch So softly Breathe So camly Give Me hope to Want So subtly Yes I'll follow You So Swiftly Kneel Before us Let us guide you Wash Away your fears be complete Grab on to me Guide My feelings Set Me free to Wash Away the Sins Of all That hurt us on the shores of winter Never Once Ill forget times According Bring Me joy to Grasp this setting I submit This column Birds Are chirping Clouds Are parting Suns Are rising Win Ters Falling Storms Are ending Men Are rising Oh This freedom This is you No conflict This is me No deceipt This is US Be simple By Athi Godlo
