Let Me Cry
Let me cry
Offload my pain
Take away my grief
Redeem my heart with peace
Chi mu free me yes chi mu free me
Wash away my shame
Clean me up with love
Sweep away my death from near days
Replace my life with courage
Chi mu free me yes chi mu free me
Let me cry
My community is dying
Who cares
Despite our obvious reality
Life goes on in a land
Were survival means forced royalty
Your opinion don't matter
So I call on my God
Chi mu free me yes chi mu free me
Free me from unmerited brutalities
Of my community
Free me from the oppression
Of powers above my elbow
I need peace ??
