Billowed smoke and amber waves will I regret if I choose to stay Falling trees and paths unpaved Let it come, I am not afraid Dying dreams and broken paths I will not forget my sacred task breaking chains, dropping masks Today I change, no looking back Let the fire fall Let the heat rise Feel the burning call I’m no longer paralyzed Let the fire fall Let the heat rise Ashes and dust to bone seeds coming up through stone I’ve been stretched into my strength sculpted, molded, pressed and shaped purified beneath the weight I have come, I have come and I will take Let the fire fall Let the heat rise Feel the burning call I’m no longer paralyzed Let the fire fall Let the heat rise Ashes and dust to bone seeds coming up through stone Sorrow once stained my eyes Lift the veil now I realize I am more than just an ember babe I’m a blaze, I’m the heat, I am the flame Chorus

If I ever go away check on down by the riverside (2x) Look for the girl with the hole in her heart Look for the girl who stands alone in the dark If I ever go away check on down by the riverside (2x) if you see me kneeling upon the stones Just leave me grieving ignore all my moans Went to the river and the river it says Come in my waters let me cleans your head If I ever go away check on down by the riverside Stepped in the water and that water was cold (2x) I’m begging river you’ll cover me slow I’ll tell you secrets you’ll already know Went to the river and the river it says Come in my waters let me cleanse your head If I ever go away check on down by that riverside River said I know all your woes I’ve been high and I’ve been low Bless my soul If I ever go away.....

V1: To feel the heart pumpin’ in my chest To feel the heart pumpin’ in my chest Don’t think I’m ready to pass this test I feel the heart pumpin’ in my chest Whiteness all around Hands are shakin’ Fingers pointin’ now my futures breakin’ I feel the heart pumpin’ in my chest V2: To feel the blood rushin’ to my head To feel the blood rushin’ to my head For crimes not mine, I won’t confess (NO) I feel the blood rushin’ to my head Darkness all around A sea upon me Soul is breakin’ down While bars surround me I feel the blood rushin’ too my head Chorus: For crimes not mine try to hold me down but I won’t confess (2x) Bridge: Oooooo Ooooohhhhhhhh V3: To feel the earth underneath my feet To feel the earth underneath my feet For thirty long years, won’t claim defeat No, I feel the earth underneath my feet Light is in me now and love surrounds me told my truth and now the world applauds me I feel the earth underneath my feet Chorus: For crimes not mine try to hold me down For crimes not mine try to hold me down For crimes not mine try to hold me down but I won’t confess

Oh she’s falling apart and she don’t know how to turn it all back around has she lost in this town she’s been down before but she’s never been this far under the ground She is tarnished from age But she still stands tall and she was bound in change Thought She could change it all Each step she Breaks all of our chains But will we hear the call OOOOoo She has carried this crown ooooo was a gift to the new world Oooooo She’s still holding the light In the dead of the night Don’t turn your back on her now (A) Are you used to her cries or are they just white noise she’s been screaming out Deep into the void How could this be When she fought so hard to be free OOOOoo She has carried this crown ooooo was a gift to the new world Oooooo She’s still holding the light In the dead of the night Don’t turn your back on her now
