[Verse]
The drum speaks loud it calls my name
The earth it trembles beneath my shame
I walk this road but it feels so tight
The stars they whisper to me tonight
[Chorus]
Set me free let me run
Like the river like the sun
Let my ancestors see
What their blood means to me
Set me free let me fly
Where the mountains kiss the sky
[Verse 2]
The world it watches with judging eyes
They don’t see the fire that burns inside
I carry the weight of a thousand souls
Yet I’m just a man with a heart of gold
[Prechorus]
Will you hear me
Will you know
The pain I carry where the shadows grow
[Chorus]
Set me free let me run
Like the river like the sun
Let my ancestors see
What their blood means to me
Set me free let me fly
Where the mountains kiss the sky
[Bridge]
Oh woman of grace will you understand
This yearning heart these calloused hands
I sing to the moon I sing to the rain
Will you hold my heart will you heal my pain
