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 keyAwoke 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 runI 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 nightThe morning bright all darkness gone

I see the distance fade

I take to flight my fears withdraw

My heart is now betrayedNot 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 knownThis 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 callThe 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 slaveFor I was lost to saveNo looking back I'm running

Running with all my might

No looking back I'm running

Running to the true lightI 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"
