Needtobreathe - Let Us Love lyrics

rate me

We born to embrace, not accept it <br />We were given nothing more, and so we kept it <br />As the colors of our boots keep fading <br />We live a life that we hate without saying <br /> <br />Who would listen to the cries of a poor man <br />We've never done nothing <br />How could we be something <br />Every heart has an hour of existence <br />Every breath brings a chance for redemption <br />If somehow we could wake up <br /> <br />Let us love <br />Like we were children <br />Make us feel <br />Like we're still living <br />In a world I know that's burning to the ground <br />Give us time <br />To beat the system <br />Make us find <br />What we've been missing <br />In a world I know that's burning to the ground <br /> <br />In the crowd of the dead and disappointed <br />We're ashamed, giving up on what we wanted <br />Take a chance on a long shot this time <br />Aren't we all just at least worth another try <br /> <br />I'm a king in the land of abuses <br />Undetermined by the promise of excuses <br />Who's to win if we know that it's not fair <br />Who would fight when it seems that no one cares <br />If somehow we could wake up <br /> <br />Let us love <br />Like we were children <br />Make us feel <br />Like we're still living <br />In a world I know that's burning to the ground <br />Give us time <br />To beat the system <br />Make us find <br />What we've been missing <br />In a world I know that's burning to the ground <br /> <br />It's hard to stay here but where do we go <br />I know we can't feel it anymore <br />It's true that time is wearing us down <br />We fall further and further away <br />Waiting for always to change <br /> <br />Let us love <br />Like we were children <br />Make us feel <br />Like we're still living <br />In a world I know that's burning to the ground <br /> <br />Leave your hurting on the road behind you <br />Let the wind go with you 'til the morning comes <br />Yeah, your sorrow, it can't save you <br />It won't answer for what you've done<br /><br />
