lyrics

I am not so weak; I could've tried.
I am half asleep, or perhaps half alive.
You could not believe what you saw with your eyes.
The water is so deep, but the stakes are so high.

I fight for freedom, for the reasons
I have, I had.
We take control, this rising toll
Is ahead, it's on my head.

I march slowly, there's a thorn in my side.
I will not concede that I've fallen behind.

I fight for freedom, for the reasons
I have, I had.
We take control, this rising toll
Is ahead, it's on my head.

I fight for freedom, for the reasons
I have, I had.
We take control, this rising toll
Is ahead, it's on my head.

My knees are shaking, I am breaking
In my cell, in my soul.
I breathe my last, this heart attack
Blame is held, a living hell.
