Everything in my chest
Filling up tight
And full of stress
And causing distress

Please let me leave
So that I may breathe
Let me leave
I can't breathe

Allow this to pass
So that I may grasp
That I'm not here to stay
Or I may not move away

I can not move
Move I can not
Under this strong hand
That won't hear my command

Please let me free
So that I can see
Set me free
I need to see

Control can I please
I need to have ease
Knowing I can control
Everything please

I pray on my knees
Begging you please

Let me go
