Burden And Blessings

(álbum: Pray For A Beautiful Sky - 2023)

Lord I have burdens, struggles
Am I special? Special, special

Oh Lord, You gave me my black skin
These people want me to change
I was born this way, I don't want light burdens
But stronger shoulders
Police watch me, hate me
They think that I am a threat
I'm tired, tired, tired
Of thinking, is this my last breath?

Can I address the congregation?
We been chained
We been slaved
We been down
Way too long

Can I address the congregation?
We been chained
We been slaved
We been down
Way too long

Lord I have burdens, struggles
Am I special? Special, special

My own people hate each other
This is not good
Shootings, I'm dodging bullets
Till I make it out the hood
I can't go in no store, it hurts to know
I'm being followed
I'm a poor man tryna make ends meet
Don't know if I'll see tomorrow

Can I address the congregation?
We been chained
We been slaved
We been down
Way too long

Can I address the congregation?
We been chained
We been slaved
We been down
Way too long

Lord I have burdens, struggles
Am I special? Special, special
Lord I have burdens, struggles
Am I special? Special, special
