Slaves |
| I saw these chains locked on my wrists |
| Around my neck no shackles missed |
| I’d tried to shake them off and flee |
| Nowhere to go without a key |
| Awoke my eyes drew the first breath |
| New to the world but not to death |
| This plan devised in secrecy |
| May take my life or set me free |
| No more to work this simple life |
| To toil only met with strife |
| The evening still and passed the sun |
| The night crept in my chance to run |
| I wait for dark! |
| I wait for dark! |
| I wait for dark! |
| No looking back I’m running |
| I’m running out of sight |
| I wait for dark! |
| No looking back I’m running |
| Running into the night |
| I wait for dark! |
| My feet be quick for this racing heart |
| Come morning’s light will the chasing start |
| With the fear of pursuit comes a fear of the flight |
| And if I stop they will shoot so I continue to hide |
| In the cover of the night |
| The morning bright all darkness gone |
| I see the distance fade |
| I take to flight my fears withdraw |
| My heart is now betrayed |
| Not a slave to man anymore! |
| Not a slave to… |
| Set me free |
| Set me free |
| Hammer these chains and |
| Set me free! |
| Break these chains |
| Break these chains |
| Unbind my hands and |
| Pardon me! |
| Ran all this way with the hope this pain would |
| Now release |
| Finally cease |
| What is this freedom if I haven’t |
| Haven’t peace |
| Haven’t peace? |
| Serpent you lied and told me to run |
| I haven’t found repose for I still am undone |
| This isn’t life! |
| This can’t be it! |
| I’ve run so far away yet |
| None of the pieces will fit |
| I couldn’t see |
| I should have known |
| This peace abounds at my master’s home |
| Now my heart be still or these feet will fall |
| All for the will of the master’s call |
| The morning bright all darkness gone |
| And not afraid |
| Shown the true light against the dawn |
| My debt has now been paid |
| I was lost to save |
| For I’m the master’s slave |
| For I was lost to save |
| No looking back I’m running |
| Running with all my might |
| No looking back I’m running |
| Running to the true light |
| I saw these chains fall to my feet |
| I stand amazed at this work complete |
| These chains not Yours, they were my own |
| «Now run no more My son, come home» |
